What center speaker to get??

[slooby]

Ok guys whats up im new to this forum. I have a real quick question. I have 2 Paradigm Monitor 3 speakers for my main speakers (dont judge I just graduated college) and my Paradigm cc-170 center just broke and Im looking to upgrade just a bit. I have been looking at the Paradigm CC-350 or the Paradigm CC-190 V.5. The 190 looks better but I do not understand why it has a lower number. I have been doing my own research but cant find anything. So which will go better with my monitor 3's?
Thanks for the help

That CC-350 model looks 8+ years old from what I'm seeing in a Google search, and it looks to be just a MTM design. So, unless you find one on eBay or Craigslist, it'll probably be difficult to purchase one.

I wouldn't be too concerned about the model number thing. If I had to choose, I'd look for that newer CC-190 you have listed. You might see if any of your local Paradigm dealers have a decent return policy for you to pick one up and try it out to see how well it will go with your mains.

Get a Revel C12 Center.
And some Revel F12s mains.

And move those monitor 3s to surrounds.
