I am in the midst of building out a new living room setup, and wanted a little input regarding speaker choices. I bought this for a receiver (wanted that hdmi passthru):

and picked up a pair of these for the fronts:

I'll be picking up a center channel this Wednesday, but long story short, we are going to hold off on picking up rears for the time being. So my question is, would you recommend either of these floor standers over the RTi6's I just picked up, and more importantly, would that receiver be able to push these bigger speakers?:

or

1 more thing. How much difference would there be in sound quality between the Monitor 60's and the RTi8's? I assume the RTi is better, but woudl it be noticeable? Would the receiver be able to push 1 but not the other?
Thanks for the help!
