Thread: Just upgraded to Def Tech Mythos STS speakers - which center should I buy? ++ PICS ++

I just upgraded my front L+R speakers from Mirage to Mythos STS speakers (with built-in powered subs).
I'd like to replace my B&W center also with Mythos Nine but it's too long; I can't put it between my Xbox360 and PS3 or on the top shelf (it will blocked bottom part of my TV).
Definitive Technology - Mythos Nine

Maybe I should just get the CS-8060HD instead?
Is it as good as Mythos Nine?
Will it match my STS?
Definitive Technology - CS-8060HD

(I'm basically using 3 subs now, still using my SVS sub - on the corner in this pic)

I hate you so much... i'm always delirious with envy after seeing your home theater setup.

even though its the same manufacturer the sound from model to model may differ... pretty sure you should match timbre between the front 3 speakers....then again I'm not an expert

how about getting a new stand?

edit: btw- sick setup!!!

I just bought that stand to fit the Elite receiver; the receiver was too tall for my old stand.

Wow those are soooooo baller! How do you like them Ronnie?

I have the mythos 2's L&R and I love them! I have them coupled with the SR-8040BP surrounds. They make some really nice stuff.

Legit. Sick setup.

You need a black Wii!

Damn! What is that beast in the corner on the right? Can that thing hit the brown note?

For a center I would definitely look to Def Tech, you will want the front stage all timbre matched as mentioned above.

Sick set-up!!

The 8060 would be hard to place. With the active subwoofer you probably would NOT want to put it in your equipment rack. You will get issues with rattling and sending vibration into your sources (i.e. Bluray). the Nine, looks pretty good, if you have room for it.

dont wanna keep pushing you towards a new stand butttttt- I bought a Synergy Triple stand from Salamander Designs Ltd. and you can slide the side rack up/down to fit almost anything

or maybe just move the ps3/xbox all the way to the bottom- I know its not a shelf but it might work
