[QUOTE="petek, post: 73975, member: 1924"] I've been following xrapidx's thread [url=http://www.avforums.co.za/index.php/topic,5282.0.html]here[/url] and while we have very similar equipment, he chose the Polk Audio FXi A6 surrounds and I chose the Polk Audio RTi A3 bookshelf. While I never approached a designer for help to spec my system and inspect my layout, I thought I chose a pretty decent setup. I quite frankly never even noticed the FXi surround speakers!
