Surround speaker choice.

[the7comeback7ki]

I recently picked up the R50 steal on frys as well as a Csi3 that should be arriving via mail shortly. I can't decide which surround/bookshelf speakers to use in the back. They need to either be cherry or black. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Wanting to keep the price around 200-250

Bump for some help please :D

Welcome to Club Polk.

Well you already have timbre mismatched speakers so Pick one series or the other for your surrounds.

Thanks for the reply. Yeah from what I read that was about as close as I could get from what is available on the web. I guess people have had some good results using the csi3 though so I didn't think it would be a huge deal.

So long as YOU like the sound it isn't a big deal.

We will see this weekend. Hopefully it will be fine. Any recommendations on the rear speakers that either timbre matches the csi3 or the r50's?

The R15 would match your 50's. Here's a couple links for pairs on ebay...

I agree - snag some r15's and forget about it. Welcome to Club Polk.
