Hello,

First time buyer here... So I bought the CS2 as a center without even looking at the dimensions... big mistake. ha!

My tv is wall mounted and I would like to hang the center speaker below it.

What center speaker could I use that matches my current speakers while also being as slim as possible?

Fronts M40s , Backs M30

Thanks!

    Might want to reconsider this as the CS1 is rear-ported. Will need some room to breathe behind it.

    I think you made the right "mistake".

    I had the CS2 and it's miles ahead of it's siblings in performance. I used it in a couple of different applications, shelf mounted below the TV, on a console below the TV, and, shelf mounted above a wall mounted TV.

    Very crude mount but functional (real guy stuff :mrgreen:), or should I say, Red Green stuff :)

    L brackets, wood screws, even zip ties. The speaker was black and I used an L shaped aluminum strip also painted black as front shelf support as the shelf was angled downward.
