Sorry for not disclosing more info. I was sort of looking for a generic answer. My L-R are IDS-25s.
(more info @ http://www.ids25.com/)

My pre/pro is Outlaw Audio 990.

Thanks

Center Channels for real men - Brian A 19:08:32 09/20/08 (0)
You have one amazing set of speakers! Seem to be comparable to the ones I had during the dot com boom, Dunlavy Milleniums. Huge 76 inch high 300 lb monsters that sounded oh, so nice. They were 20Hz to 20KHz +/- 1dB with NO equalizer and were time aligned.

Anyways, ignore the truism about matching center to LR's, for no center could match your LR's. Really, you only need to match them when they are so bad that you are matching the horrible frequency response of the vast majority of speakers. Just get a very high quality speaker for the center, it'll sound good enough.

We'll have to agree to disagree about human caused global warming until the next global cooling scare comes along.

At a quick glance it appears they don't have a center channel (yet?), which is suicide nowadays IMO. You may have a tough time finding a center that doens't sound "wrong" from anybody but ... ids25. Perhaps there's a different manufacturer using the same drivers, then maybe. I'd go no center unless you can try at home for a couple days minimum.
