In a med sized room I have b&w xt wall mounted and I am looking to upgrade with a used center channel and have a tight budget of no more than $750... Recommendations / suggestions welcome
I think a used Gallo AV Reference Center ($600-$800) would be a great match both in terms of sound and style. Or, a Gallo Strada (less LF coverage but extremely clear, open and dynamic).
Center channel needs to match the front R&L speakers in tone. Or it will suck. Pretty unlikely to be able to use another brand. But possible to use another series? IMO one major factor in choosing speakers for 5.1 is the middle speaker matches the front R&L. Even if the front R&L are going to be two channel use also.
