I'm Actually considering upgrading my rear speakers either to OWM 3 or OWM 5, Which could go better with my current set-up, which is:

tsi100 for Front
Cs10 for Center
Psw10
Sony Str-Dh800

The room size is around 13 X 13.

    Either one. The OWM5 has more bass (dual drivers), but is also twice the size. Are you wall mounting?

    Have you considered M10s? I got a pair from Polk Direct (Ebay) for $74 shipped. They sometimes go for less. I suspect they would be better sounding than either of the OWM models (if the specs are any indication).

    the OWM3's are pretty nice. The mounting options are great. I had a pair of them before i moved my A3's to the rear. i would go with the 3's over the 5's based on the front speakers that you have. In fact i would look at upgrading my fronts and moving the 100's to the rear. There are/were some grewat deals on polk direct.

    Ohh and welcome to the club.
    Front - RTiA5's
    Rear - RTiA3's
    Center - CSiA4
    Sub - PSW110

    Another set of TSi 100's would also work well for your surrounds. Although the OWM's do have more/better mounting options. Welcome to Club Polk.
