    Default Surrounds for RT/RTi series

    I have RT55i mains, and a CS400 center.

    I was using Monitor 5jr+ for surrounds, but now I'm using Monitor 7Cs (which are a little big).

    I'm getting another pair of 5jr+, which I really don't need. So, in my dream world, I'd sell the 5jr+ and get surrounds that match the front. I wouldn't be adding much money to whatever I'd get for the 5jr+, so please keep that in mind when making recommendations.


    Aside: why am I getting a pair of 5jr+ that I don't need?? Three years ago, my sister called and wanted to buy a basic music/movie system. I found her a pair of used 5jr+ right here in the Flea Market, and she bought a brand new Sherwood 5.1 receiver and a Kenwood 5-disc DVD/CD changer. Now, 3 years later, NONE OF THEM have ever been out of the boxes. It got to be a joke that whenever I talked to her I'd ask "so, you hooked up your stereo yet?" So, now she's simplifying life, getting rid of stuff, and asked me if I wanted all her gear because all she does is move the boxes around. I'm emotionally attached to my 7Cs, and my wife bought her 5jr+ when we were dating, but THIS pair may have to go... it would be my 5th pair of Polks (including the little M2s we used in the kitchen).
    HT: Denon 1910, LG blu-ray, Def Tech ProCinema 100s, Stryke 12" sonosub.
    LR: Onkyo TX-84 (original owner), Aiwa AD-F850 (original owner), Philips TT (old school, 2nd owner), Philips CD (cheap-o), Monitor 5jr+ (original owner - actually, my wife is the original owner; she bought them new when we were dating - sealed the deal).
    Xbox 360/Wii/Kids: Old school huge Sony HD TV, Sherwood RD-6500, Philips DVD, pair Def Tech ProCinema 100.

    Any of the RT/RTxx"i" bookshelves, or maybe the RTf/x's.
    I smell ass, burning ass, glowing cherry red spanked ass.

    I went with the older LS FX series speakers, and they sound great.
