    Also this is one that I am actually bidding on. I think it will be better than my JBL center

    The KVR3 isn't that bad of a center channel. If you can get it for cheap, i say go for it. You've already got a hodgepodge of speakers going on, so it can't hurt.

    If you wanted to get picky though, i'd get something that matches the Infinitys. :)
    I don't read the newsssspaperssss because dey aaaallllllllll...... have ugly print.

    I agree. You should always match your center and mains so it blends in sonically. Find an infinity center, you will be glad you did.

    Yamaha RX-V2500 System, Carver A753 3 channel amp.

    Polk HT system 2: , SRT system with f/x 1,000's rear speakers on 7.1 system currently using Onkyo TX-RZ820 receiver, powered by Sunfire Grand Theater amp

    Polk Speaker collection: SDA SRS 1.2tl x 2, SRT system, SDA SRS 2 P/B, SDA 2A, SDA 1C Studio, SDA CRS+, Monitor 7B & 4, SRS 3.1tl, RTA 15tl, LS90, LSI 9

    What is a good one to look for in that line? My main goal is to get something that when I upgrade my speakers in the future the center will keep up. To what I am not sure about that yet. Also any comments on that receiver?
