Match for old RM7600's

[bbtmc]

I would like to add a couple of speakers (probably surrounds, or surround backs) to my RM7600 system (RM4600 center, 4 RM4300 satellites, "other" sub) to enable a 6.1 setup. Has anyone done something similiar, and if so what speakers did you use ? Any other recomendations that will match well with this system ?

I tried writing customer service for a recommendation, but after a week of no replies I figured I'd try here.

Thanks.

RT25i will match perfectly in terms of the same driver type and size. Why not get a pair of them for mains and use the 4 RM4300 sattelites for side and rear surrounds?

The rt25i's are an older model, I don't really see them available anywhere.

I was thinking along the lines of an rti4, or monitor30...same size woofer & tweeter, though different materials. As long as I don't pick something that will overpower the rm4300's, is the difference in material make-up something that will produce an obvious difference in sound ?

Hey marker, I just wanted to assert my firm grasp of the obvious; you not only have many systems but they are nice (especially the nad silver)...

Thanks unbridled_id. I've got a lot of it in the last year or so where some of it (literally) fell in my hands.

Just in the past month or so got the 2 Marantz SR8400 recievers, the HK 3480 2 channel receiver, the Polk RT2000i pair, the NHT T6 pair, and most of the NAD Silver series componets.

BBTMC, the RT25i will still be the perfect match for the RM7600, and they are readily available for good prices on ebay, audiogon, and even right here in the flea market.
