The center channel should match as closely as possible the other two front
speakers. If there is no video monitor in the way (unlikely) you could
simply buy a third speaker of the same brand/type you're using left and
right. This would be the absolute optimum. This is why some people use an
"acoustically transparent" (sort of...) projection screen - to allow them to
put 3 floor-standers behind it.

Many speaker companies also have a "center" version of their main speakers,
which is basically the same acoustic design in a low-profile construction.
See if the manufacturer of your main speakers has such a thing.

In starting to build a new system, my current system lacks only a
center channel.

What are your opinions regarding a) Klipsch (RC-35) versus b)
Definitive Technology (ProCenter C2)

I like the sound of the Definitive, however my gut seems to go with
the Klipsch. Apparently there are those that think the Klipsch sounds
bright - though maybe my ears did not agree with this.

Although the Defenitive seems to be more detailed, etc., it seems with
the Klipsch I hear less of the speaker and more of the movie, music,
etc. Before I jump off a bridge some feedback would help. Thanks
