    I would go with the TSi100's, It's nice to look at your rig and see all the speakers match. I'm working on matching my RTi's now, just waiting on the money . . .

    I agree. Go with the TSi100's. I had Monitor 30's for my sides after purchasing some new TSi400's and just had to upgrade them to the TSi100's to match. Very pleased with the TSi100's. The OWM3's are also a good option if your mounting options are limited.

    Not trying to be the odd man out here, but the Monitor 30's wouldn't be a show stopper either. I agree that having all your speakers match is good (all of us have OCD to a certain degree) but if bugdet is a factor the 30's are only $89.99 a pair from Newegg w/ free shipping. The TSi 100's are $199. The TSi's and Monitor's mounted up on a wall as the 30's and 100's probably would be, you won't notice a huge difference between the 2 since the piano finish would probably be out of sight on the top. The sides look very similar and the grills are somewhat similar as well. IMHO the cosmetic differences between the two mounted on the wall and the timbre matching of your surrounds are not worth the extra $110. Just my $.02, you are the one who has to be happy with the choice. Good luck, and welcome to Club Polk.

    Not a problem, just offering another option. I'm not trying to talk you out of the TSi's, just offering another opinion is all. Glad we could be of help, you have a good day too.
