Also this is one that I am actually bidding on. I think it will be better than my JBL center

What other speakers are you running in your system?

A set of infinity 2000.6 towers, polk monitor 40's and a polk psw 10. I am also thinking about grabbing this as well. My current receiver is a pioneer vsx-d514

The KVR3 isn't that bad of a center channel. If you can get it for cheap, i say go for it. You've already got a hodgepodge of speakers going on, so it can't hurt.

If you wanted to get picky though, i'd get something that matches the Infinitys.

I agree. You should always match your center and mains so it blends in sonically. Find an infinity center, you will be glad you did.

What is a good one to look for in that line? My main goal is to get something that when I upgrade my speakers in the future the center will keep up. To what I am not sure about that yet. Also any comments on that receiver?

I've got a CSIa-4 I may want to sell, if you want to try it out, I can bring it to Sal's get together on the 15th.
