Looking for a compact center speaker to go with Monitor ii 70

mfrench

My current setup is monitor ii series, 70's in the front cs2 center and 30's in the rear and a psw505 sub and running it all with an
onkyo TX-SR705 receiver. With my current setup, I don't have any place to put my center speaker other than on the floor. I have a 9 month old that is crawling and he likes to play with it. Im looking into getting a new tv stand and I want to be able to put the center speaker in one of the center shelves to get it off the floor. The problem is that most of the tv stands do not have shelves wide enough for this huge center speaker. I found 1 so far but it is not deep enough for my receiver. I have been looking into getting a compact center speaker but I want it to be a good match for the rest of my speakers since I know that the center is the
most important component. I was looking at the TL3 but I wanted some opinions on whether this could be a good match or if there is something else that might be better.

I completely understand.My daughter was almost 1.5 yrs old. Taught her very fast
About the entertainment area lol. I had the very same setup before my current one
This is the stand I am using and holds everything
In my Sig. My buddy has same one but with a 60"tv and without gear.

I ended up going down to home depot bought some nice
Brackets along with a 24" black finished shelf to put above the tv
For the Cs2, looks very nice. And I still use the shelf for the cs350

Hope this helps.

Cheers!!

Thanks for the suggestions, I ended up finding a stand that will work with all my gear. I needed something that will protect everything because my son has figured out how to turn knobs and push buttons and he likes to pull on wires. I actually had my center mounted above the tv just like you mentioned but at my old place. At my new house, where I have my tv there is only a half wall so there is nowhere to mount the speaker to. This is the stand I ended up ordering http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003D3OH78/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 , There will be enough room under the tv for the CS2 and my onkyo then everything else will be behind the doors.

I like that stand, very nice and orginized. I would have got it to.
Should fit everything nicely.
