I need help matching a center speaker to my Baby Advent 3's.

I just got a Onkyo 506 receiver and have a pair of baby advent 3's with modified tweeters. One tweeter wasn't working so i order some new tweeters from parts express. I picked up 2 "Pioneer FBDD69-51F 3/4" Polymer Dome Tweeters" b/c they fit the cabinet without any modification. And the guy at parts express said they sound great.

I don't have a sub or rear speakers now but planning on pillaging my mom's basement next time i'm there this summer. So i'll pick up a sub and 2 rear speakers that are sitting unused in the basement.

So anyone know a center speaker that would go will with my baby advent 3's with pioneer tweeters?

Thanks for the help!

Also I don't want to spend a ton. less then 100 bucks would be great, and used is even better.

Only another Baby Advent 3 to which you can add a Pioneer tweeter. Nothing else will match.

I know this won't be perfect but i would assume there some centers that will work better then others. Well it won't be perfect how about something close? should I just match the same tweeter material or is it more important to match the woofer material???

To get close should i just match the tweeter material?
