    Question 4 1/2 feet behind seating...fxi3's, fxi5's, or monopole?

    Any opinions on this?

    I went to Tweater and listened. They both sound good there. I'm just concerned that in my room with the couch 4 feet in front of the speaker that the 6 1/2 inch drivers will be to much.

    I have definately decided on Rti10's and CSi5 for the front three.

    Thanks!

    Impossible. it can never be to much. :p

    I'd go with either the 3's or 5's. I really like the bipole setting and the sound patern it uses for sound on rear surrounds.

    I vote 5's. They're larger and will keep up with your front stage a little better.

    Home Setup: Sony VPL-VW85 Projo, 92" Stewart Firehawk, Denon 3310 (pre/pro), PS3, Xbox 360, Myryad MA-500 5ch amp, RTi12 fronts, CSi5, FXi6 rears, RTi6 surround backs, RTi4 height, MFW-15 Subwoofer, Sanus UF26 & NF36 Stands, and most wires by Cobalt.
