Hi I'm new to the forum, and I've seen this question asked in a few different threads. I'm trying to find a center channel to match my r300 fronts and m10surrounds. I've been told that the CSR, CS1, and CSM are the correct choices. The CSR and CS1, however, are about a half inch too tall for placement under my tv. I see that two speakers, CSM and CSi25, are the correct dimensions for my setup. Any opinions on these two as a timbre match for the r300s? thanks.

    one more thing, one spec sheet has CSi25s rated for 4 ohms... is this accurate? will they work well with 8 ohm fronts?

    I had the R300's paired with a CSi25 in my HT for quite a few months, and it sounded very good to my ears. Seemless soundstage for movies for left-center-right sound effects and dialogue.

    The CSi25 is 8ohm and can be found pretty cheap online. That's what I would recommend.
    My HT
    HDTV: Panasonic PT-61LCX65 61" Rear Proj. LCD
    AVR: Harman Kardon AVR 235
    Video: 80GB PS3, Toshiba HD-XA1 HD DVD
    Fronts: Polk Audio RTi8
    Center: Polk Audio CSi3
    Amp: Emotiva LPA-1
    Surrounds: Polk Audio R150
    Sub: HSU STF-3
