This is my first post so I hope I'm doing it right. I joined the club to tap into the vast knowledge base of the forum. Thanks in advance for your help. My system looks like this:
Receiver- Yamaha RX-V663
Fronts - Polk RTi 10's
Sub - Just ordered DSW Pro 600
Center - Polk CS10
HDTV - 73" Mitsubishi DLP
Rears - Sony bookshelf
Surround - Optimus (satellites)
I'm replacing surrounds and undecided on the replacements, but I'm looking at the LsiFx, Fxia4, Fxia5, and the a6. Which speaker is the best with my current set-up? My den is 18' x 20'.

Welcome to the Forum, Im fairly new myself. I also have the same Yamaha, and have been steadily putting together the rtia series for my setup. The fxia surrounds are recomended for that series, the lsi's are the top shelf in the polk line. I cant see why any of those choices wouldnt suit your setup. Hang on for the experts!Receiver: Pioneer Elite SC-05
Amp: Emotiva Xpa-3
Front L/R: POLK Rti-a9s':D
Center:POLK Csi-a6
Rear surround's:POLK Rti-a1s'
Sub: Klipsch Synergy sub-12

I'd go with any of the FXi series speakers. Any one of those would be a good match. You might want to look into the either the FXi5, or FXi A6 over the smaller versions though. The RTi10's are big speakers, so the bigger ones would be a good match.
I wouldn't recommend the LSi's though. They're not voice matched to the RTi's, and have a much different type of sound, so they wouldn't be as good of a match with your fronts.
Good choice on the sub. You might want to look into one of the RTi series center channels though. It would blend with the other speakers much better, and would give you a fully voice matched set.
