The obvious choice as I see it would be the 1723 Surround speakers, or if you want something a little smaller and neater on the wall, go with the 1723 Surround S speakers. I prefer these over monopole designs as they give a wider sound field, and for both of these you can configure them as monopole to see which way you prefer them set up in the end.

I personally like having 4 of the same speakers in the back. This will guarantee the most seamless panning of surround effects.
I personally like using 4 x surrounds. But I did consider putting monitors in the back but they were just too deep.
Now that I think about it, the monitors are pretty huge. I suppose the surrounds will be fine
Hi,
If you are going for the 1723 Surround or 1723 Surround S as surround back-speakers.
Please note the following:
Our TriAxial surround speakers have side drivers, where the one firing backwards in the room, is out of phase with the other drivers.
Therefore when mounting as the surround back channels in a seven-channel system, the in-phase drivers should be mounted pointing at each other in the center of the rear wall.
Meaning, the Left speaker should be placed in the Right position at the back wall, and the Right speaker on the Left side.
This means the out-of-phase drivers are working in the correct phase with the out-of-phase drivers on the side channels.
Between them, this pairing continues to assist with placing pin-point images at the rear, whilst working with all of the other drivers to diffuse the sound field around these effects.
