Buckeyefan makes somes good points when comparing to 6ohm vs 8. Personally, I'd prefer to go with the more broadly used / compatible 8 ohm's unless you know what you are doing, and that you've got or...

Exactly. Would work for surrounds, but if these are your fronts you are hurting. Eat mac & cheese for a month and put the extra money on something better. Newegg has the Energy CF-30's for 100 each....

They don't. They're essentially the same as the older R30s. The R50 has an extra bass/midrange speaker.

An earlier post said floor stands for the Pioneers were about $100 each. Why not just get 4 Polks and use them for floor stands for the Pioneers? Save $200! :wave:

Entry level Polk. The RTi and RTiA series, as well as the LSi when driven properly are great speakers. The RTi A1 bookshelves are some of the nicest I've heard.
