Center Speaker to go with JTR NOESIS 212RT's

I am about (after the 4-5 month wait for them to be built!) to upgrade to the JTR 212RT's, but don't have room to get a JTR to use as the center. I currently have a Paradigm CC-690 and plan on using that for now. That is about as big as I can go for a center. Any ideas? Best case scenario the Paradigm sounds good with the JTR's and I save a little money not having to upgrade.

You have put yourself in an awkward predicament. You got yourself some extremely wide dynamic range left and right front stage speakers, but you are bottle-necked by the speaker that needs the most dynamic range of all channels, the center. I hope this system will be used for two-channel stuff mostly. You might just take out the center. If you are mostly only listening at the sweet spot, the front left and right speakers can do a pretty good job of emulating the center by themselves.

my av stand was custom made to fit the cc-690. Trying to avoid getting rid of that, but im open to the idea if need be

Yeah, you might want to sell it. If you go JTR you have to use all JTR.

Yeah I don't mean to keep repeating everyone but there is no way that center is going to keep up with those speakers

Ya gotta ditch the stand

gonna try and cut the middle of the top off of my stand. Just need 3 more inches (insert joke here) Could go with the 210RM if it works out.

Thanks for the help everyone.
