Matching Centre for Studio 60 v4s

[Joe Figueiredo]

I just picked up a pair of used Paradigm Studio 60v4s, and now my CC-370 centre is needing an upgrade.

I can't find a CC690 v4/v5 anywhere used, so am thinking between two speakers for the centre and wondering which would be the best match?

CC490 v5
OR
55C

I would really spend the money and get the CC690 if you can find a V4, they really hold their value. the CC690v5 is shaped differently, but the timber still matches pretty well with black. I bought my CC690v5 for 1.2k new from my HT guy and sold it for like 1100 2 years later.

The V4 is on Ebay now

Damn they hold their value, partly because you never see them on auction sites

I ended up ordering a used cc690v5 for my Studio 60v4s. Awaiting shipment later this week.

Now I think that's it for a bit and I'll live with my ADP370s in my 5.2 setup until I want to dive into Atmos when I'll look to replace the ADP370s and put some ceiling speakers in.

How hard is it to install height speakers in a fully finished basement?
