Center Channel Speaker (bar)

I am currently using Orb mods for 5.1 with mod 2 in center. I am thinking about getting a new center channel speaker. Any recommendation as to center channel (preferably a 8-10 inch bar) that would look good with Orb Spheres around and Pioneer KRP 600M display.

Any ideas ? Budget under $400..

I am not sure if I completely have the setup right. Most of the times, the dialogues get lost in the surround sounds. I have Mod2 in the center & Mod 1s as surround. I have not tried these in my new house yet. I will need to hook it up. Since it is a bigger room, I am looking around to see if there is a center channel I could get and make make front left & right as Mod2.

One other option I am exploring was getting a new set of front 3 and use the current mods as "front high" (left & right mod2) since I ordered a Onkyo Sr607 dolby prologic IIz receiver.

I am glad it is not just me... Is your setup Mod2 or Mod1 for surround ?

Any ideas for center channel upgrades.. Any Orb lovers our there seeing the same problem????

I am so tempted to go Mod 4 because of the pretty looks, but not sure how the performance would be.

I was thinking about Mirage or Definitive Center channels... Any thoughts??
