Good center/surround choice to match SDA 2.3's

I am enjoying my SDA 2.3's, but I dont have a large enough house to have dedicated music and HT systems, so I need to expand with what space I have. What are some good solutions for surround and center channel speakers that similarly match the voice of the SDA speakers? I was considering a pair of SDA CRS (two tweet style) and get another pair and use a single for center. I had also read on the forum that the Monitor 5jr+ was a similarly voiced loudspeaker choice. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated.

I would try to find some vintage monitor series for the rears ( 5's, 7's,10's) , that would match pretty well since most of them use the SL-2000 tweet.
As far as a center goes, others will chime in on which center is a good fit from the polk line... I used an SDA CRS (two tweets) for a center at one point and it sounded fine. However, its not designed for that and I'm sure there is a better option out there. -

+1 on the CSiA6. I've used it with SDA2A's SDA2B's, and SRS2's. It's a really great center. Also, you might give Customer Service at Polk Audio a call. They gave me the CSiA6 recommendation for use with the SDA2B's.Sunfire Theater Grand IV
