Hello all, I'm new to home theater and speaker setup, so please excuse any rambling and/or noob questions.
A few years back, my mother-in-law bought a Jamo DVR50 receiver/DVD player and JBL S36 series II speakers. She never used them so she gave them to me. I'm using the JBLs as front speakers. Should these be used as fronts or are they better off as surround speakers? Anyone have opinions as to the quality of these components?
To get to my question: I'm piecing a 5.1 surround system together, and I'm looking to add a center channel speaker, with a sub and two surround speakers to follow in the future. I have some Best Buy gift card to burn, but they no longer carry JBL. So, I have been looking at the Polk CS10 or the Bose VCS-10 for the center channel. I'm concerned that if I don't match the new center channel to the JBLs, I will have poor sound quality. Can anyone point me in the right direction as to how to match these speakers?
