just starting the build of a basic 5.1 surround setup. looking for thoughts on center channel. I hear alot about matching the center to the fronts. currently my fronts are monitor 30s (which will eventually be rear surrounds)will probably stick with monitor series for budget reasons. looking for a matching center but due to restrictions for height cs1 is out. both csm and csi25 will fit (just) any thoughts. also have velodyne vx10 su currently.

    Why do you have restrictions for height? You really want to have matching front and center speakers for any 5.1 setup, so I'm curious why you can't go with a CS1 or CS2.
