[Help Needed] Center Channel Speaker

Steve_ODonnell · 11-06-2009, 10:32 PM

I am still using Polk SDA 2B speakers that I have had since 1989. I just recently purchased a new entertainment unit. Unfortunately, the center channel speaker I was using (Polk CSi5) is too large to fit on the shelf designed for the center channel speaker. I need a suggestion on what would be the best Polk center channel speaker to go with my SDA 2B speakers. The shelf for the center channel speaker is 10 inches high by 30 inches long by 11 inches deep so the new speaker would have to accomodate that space. Would like a high end speaker and woud prefer to stay with Polk since I don't really want to go with another brand.

Hello and welcome to the forum, Steve. Have you taken a look at the Polk Surroundbar?

A cs350 would fit very nice. They sound nice too. maybe you can find one on craigslist or ebay.

Not sure how good a price this is, but I remembered seeing it the other day.

The CS350 is a monster...26" long and nearly as wide as the csi5. I think trietz3 may be on the right track here unless of course he wants a dedicated center.
