If you can, use the same speaker that you use for your mains for the center channel. Actually use the same full range speakers all around.With large speakers this may mean building a new baffle to rearrange the drivers. It may mean building a different shaped cabinet to house the drivers, just keep the volume the same. Build a special cabinet to hold it over the TV, or put it behind a perforated screen. Be creative and come up with a way to use the same speaker. You will be glad that you did. The center speaker is very important, I wasn't satisfied untill I matched mine up.
Full range speakers arn't a waste. They allow you to set the crossover frequency to the sub much lower the 80Hz. Mine are set between 35 and 40Hz.
