I need help picking out a center speaker for my 5.1 setup. I've got 2 Monitor 60's as fronts, 2 Tsi200 as surrounds, and a Klipsch Sub-12. I can get the CS20s for about the same price as CS2s. Wondering if anyone can give me some input.

Any advice?

I also have M60s as my fronts and my CS10 sounds great with them. I didn't get the CS20 because it's a tad too big for where I place my center. I got the 10 on amazon for 79.99. The CS20 and CS2 are basically the same speaker but the CS2 will better match the M60s for looks.

The CS2 is part of the Monitor line, so it's drivers match the ones in the 60's and will sound more integrated with them. The CS20 is in the TSi line... you don't really need to worry much about how your center matches your surrounds.

Agreed, CS2 is the way to go with that setup. Keep in mind that in a 5.1 setup for movies the center is the most important speakers, subjective opinion of course.

I went CS2, mainly because they are paired up with the monitor 60's on polk's website and everyone here seemed to agree.
