upgrading center channel

Aqs612scag

Hello,
I currently have a CS245 and would like to ask if the CS350ls is considered an upgrade. I have compared the specs and they are about the same. Pls advise.
Thanks.

I have sda 2 fronts with the sl1000 tweeter and have read somewhere in the forum that the cs350 is a good match for them.

Just in case you have not seen it.

Yes, I have seen it and it's a beautiful piece of equipment but unfortunately -out of my price range. Thanks for the offer.

I have a Monitor 5 in 120 watt HT Rotel system, and a CSi5 in a 110 watt Denon HT system. I like them both alot. I haven't been running the CSi5 long enough to compare the two. I got it used for $250 plus shipping. It is twice the size of my former JBL N series.

that cs350 is a big step up from the 245. wont be aperfect tibre match with your mains, but it will well more than close enough. upgrading your center is always a good thing to do for a home theater.

if you get the cs350, always keep your eye out for a pair of LS90's to use as mains. they are the timbre match for that center, and that front soundstage sounds dynamite. its what I had before I got my LSi's and the combo performed very well

Are you getting a deal on the CS350ls or you are just interested?

Where are you in the bay area?

the reason I ask is I have a cs400i I may be willing to sell locally but I am not interested in shipping it.

Shoot me a pm if interested.

Hello Skynut, I'm in SF and I have a deal pending on the cs350- going to demo it this weekend.
Thanks for your offer.
