I own two LSi25s and one LSiC. These are all voice matched 4 ohm impedance speakers. Most Audio/Video amps have trouble with 4 ohm Center speakers. I am currently running the Center pre-amp signal to a Rotel 5 Channel power amp. which works just fine but I want to sell the Rotel. Is there a recommended (6 or 8 ohm) replacement Center speaker for the LSiC that will do well with the LSi25s?

    No other center channel is going to match your left and right speaker as perfectly as the LSiC does. Welcome to Polk's forum! I should have said that first.

    If you really want to replace your matching LsiC the closest one is LsiM 704C. It is 8 ohm load and sound/size/color are very close to LsiC.
    MAIN:
    Front- LsiM 707 (MIT Terminator 2 Bi-Wire),
    Center- lsiM 706,
    Surrounds- lsi F/X,
    Power sub PSW1000,
    Receiver- Harman Kardon Avr 3700,
    Amp - Emo XPR-5.

    Secondary (2.1):
    LsiM 703,
    HK Avr 3700,
    Yaqin MS-30L,
    Polk DSW-PRO 400.
