This has been my center for a few years and been a very solid performer. I purchased this from a fellow Polkie named Kex, who does not post much anymore.

This is one of the rare models, kind of hard to find much info, but if you dig and search here on the forum you will find the specs and nothing but good reviews. This center fits perfect where other centers just can't fit due to its width.

7/10 condition due to missing 2 of the rubber feet and the grill is snagged a bit across the top. Not noticeable from a few feet away, but still it is there.

I'll post some pictures soon.

$110 plus shipping, and I'll eat the PayPal fees.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks!
Eric.

    - 2 x 5.25" Dynamic Balance mid-woofers,
    - 1 x 1" Dynamic Balance tri-laminate tweeter.

    Frequency Response:
    - 50-26kHz (overall),
    - 53-23kHz (3dB limits).

    Crossover Topology:
    - 2nd Order Low Pass Filter cascaded at 2kHz and 900Hz,
    - 2nd Order High Pass Filter at 2kHz.

    Dimensions:
    - 7"H x 16.75"W x 9.25"D,
    - 23lbs shipping weight.

    Other:
    - Efficiency (1M, 1W): 90dB,

    This one has the power port, so a step up from the CS245i and a bit smaller than the CS400. Very sweet center. Only selling because I am re-arranging my H/T, mounting the TV on the wall and going with a bigger center under the TV on top of my A/V component rack.

    Here are a few pictures. Were it not for the small snags at the top of the grill, this baby would be close to mint. I can't find a scratch on it.
