Center
Pioneer 2-Way In-Wall Center Channel Speaker w/ Dual 4.5" Woofers, S-IW60T

Rear L,R
Polk Audio RC60i Round 2-Way In-Ceiling Speaker

My receiver is Panasonic SA-XR55S Home Theater Receiver. Any suggestions are highly appreciated, thanks

    Completely different sonic signature. Unless you want to change all of the other speakers, ditch it...

    +1

    All the speakers should be timbre matched.

    Where's the .1? If you're planning on getting a traditional sub, the Polk PSW10 is an impressive deal @ $109 shipped from Amazon. I "downgraded" from the PSW110 after being unimpressed and returned a Dayton Sub-100 to PartsExpress that I couldn't find a happy place for. The 110 might dig a little deeper, but the 10 is much faster with music imho. After a half hour spent bass-crawling I couldn't be happier. At its current price nothing touches it.
    Currently listening to:

    Marantz SR5004
    Sony BDP-S370
    Apple TV V2
    Audio Technica AT-LP120
    Mirage CMD-5 x 5
    Bic H-100
