R50's as Surrounds?

[JWBurns]

What do you guys think about using R50's as rear surrounds? I currently have RTi8's up front and a CSI5 on center...

Should I forget the 50's and go with the FXi3's or 5's?

If you can afford the FXi's then you should get them. Never skimp on your gear. If youre a broke bitch like me then the R50's would be the way to go but if you can swing the better speakers definitely get them!

Plus the FXi's are more suited to surround duties.

My vote, especially with those awesome RTi8's is to go for the FXi5's.
