Center choice

Hello, first post.
I've had my new system for almost a month and although it's nothing like the stuff most of you seem to have, I've never been able to afford anything like this and I am very grateful. The only hitch is the Center speaker. It's supposed to be "Timbre Matched", but It feels just short of perfect for me.
Any thoughts on upgrading to a CSiA6 from a TSx250C? Due to space restrictions, I'm 11' from the TV and the fronts are 9' apart.

Sony DN1050 (165W per with two driven@6)
TSx550T fronts (bi-amped)
2 PSW 110 subs
Yamaha 4400M rears

Thanks, Dennis.

    Welcome to club Polk!

    I saw that the CSiA6 has almost the same spec's and same speakers as your center channel. except it has -> Dual PowerPort bass venting and ARC port. I don't know how it matches cause of the difference or that you could hear much of a difference.

    I have the CSia4's cause the 6's would not fit in my HT cabinet (with A7 fronts)!

    I think Nbrowser is correct about no changing it out!

    Thanks. I brought the center speaker froward to just behind the screen (and further from the wall) and returned the EQ to flat. I noticed that like the towers, it's a little thirsty and definitely sounds better the more juice you give it.
