My opinion ... go with the 60's

If you have the space to use them as surrounds, they have a better frequency response (even better than your RM50t), can be bi-amped, you don't need to spend extra on stands

Just my opinion

I have the Polk Monitor 60's and Polk RTi8's for comparison. I would go with the Polk RTiA1 speakers, if you are looking for a better quality speaker with better sound definition. They also look awesome in the cherry finish. The RTiA series is a level above the Monitor series.
