Default Center channel to compliment Mileva's

Ok, I'm looking for some ideas for a center channel to compliment my Milevas that are running L/R duty. Was figuring to use another FE127 but wasn't sure on what would work best for the center, never had the desire to get one before but figured I might as well try it out.

Wild out there ideas appreciated.

Yes, an another FE127 would make the most sense.

How much room do you have?

I have as much room on top of the TV as I want and probably 6-8" under the TV full width. If that isn't enough it would give me an excuse to build a new entertainment center. Here is my current center, although its in a different house and the gear is changed slightly it'll give you an idea.

These are small enough that you could try laying one (or even pair) sideways. I'd try below the screen, but they are certainly light enough when made from plywood to hang from adjustable wall mount brackets above, but don't change the port slot dimensions

Ideally a centre is spatially matched with the mains, same height, same distance (althou most HT processors have some electronic delay possible). You also need to worry about the acoustic effect of all the kit below & in front of the speaker.

To get the most out of a mFonken, it would need to be reconfigured to make it shorter and keep the bevels on the sides.
