Surround speakers and surround rear sizes

Hello, I recently purchased the s15 speaker for my surround speakers. I am doing a 7.1 setup and also adding rear surrounds. I was wondering if I should stay with the s15 for them or if I could step down to the s10 for the rear users .this would present two different size sets of speakers for rear surrounds any advice is greatly appreciated.

    I use the same size speakers for my set up, two sets of FXiA6's for side and rear. YMMV

    If you have the room for them stay with the S15s otherwise you can go down to the S10s. What speakers anchor your front stage?

    Excellent, then pick whichever size S# will fit in the spaces.
