center channel speakers --- low height


I am installing a home theater and I have a size constraint for the center channel speaker. It has to be no higher than approximately 6 inches. The Revels and the Sonus Faber won't work and I didn't particularly like the sound of the B&Ws that would fit for this application. Any recommendations?

You need your center to match your mains. This would be a major mistake if it didn't. Matching the sourounds is even better but now as important.
If you have to toe toe your speakers something is wrong. If your speakers are decent and set up right they should image fine to produce a phantom center. If you have to start playing with position your soundstage is not correct. When you play a cd or volcal piece and close your eyes the singer should apper right in frount of you and the instruments around them. If you are not getting this effect then setup or equipnment is an issue.
That would work. As long as the frount 3 match so voices don't sound different in the sides and center.
