    I would suggest matching your back speakers. (what you're calling side speakers, I think of as also being back L/R speakers). If you have a flyby in the rear, I would think you'd want balance there, so i'd go with 3, 170s.

    i'm purchasing the rest of an ascend system next week.
    i'll move my 170s to l/r surrounds. not sure if rear surrounds will work in my room just yet, but i'm sure the 170s would do the job.

    i think 170s are plenty for surrounds. plus, they're extremely easy to mount.

    The 170's are an amazing speaker...they're MORE than you'll need for surround duty.
