I`m new to Club Polk and I have a question that maybe very basic.

I have a Yamaha receiver and am using Polk Monitor 30`s for front and rears. and monitor cs1 for the center. I am thinking of upgrading the center to a cs2. Would this be a waste of time and money. Would the cs2 be a better timbre match for the 30`s than the cs1 that I presently have?

    Welcome to Club Polk!
    Switching driver size, as long as you're within the same line, won't ruin your timbrematching to a noticeable extent.
    That being said, I don't believe it's a worthwhile switch. Are you disappointed in the CS1?

    Agree with Mr. Peterson on this one.What exactly don't you like about the current center? Save your dough and upgrade the fronts.

    I`m really not dis-satisfied with the cs1. I just thought the cs2 would improve the dialogue imaging on movies.
