Can you use this center speaker with the Pioneer BS-21 Bookshelf speakers? I understand they are very similar to the BS-22 which are paired with this.

Yes, but whether or not they'll work has more to do with the receiver than the other speakers you're using. I have the BS-21 speakers and this center speaker on a Pioneer VSX-822-K receiver.

You should be able to. They are wire connected so as long as other speakers could be driven by relatively low output of the receiver they should work. The speakers that come with this system are just fine for a bookshelf system however.

Nope. These stands would be overkill for those bookshelf speakers. They are made for larger bookshelf speakers such as the Klipsch RB-25's, not for smaller satellite speakers.

The center speaker of this unit can be used for the center channel but then the remaining speakers would be useless unless they are connected to other channels of your system.

I have an old Pioneer receiver model SX-626 and they work awesome with it. I dont know about yours but they should work well with any receiver.

For me it was the lower price for the older model. I use my BS-21LR for the rear surround speakers and they do a very nice job for me. It doesn't matter to me that they don't exactly match the newer model Pioneer SP-FS52 LR front speakers and matching center speaker. I also used the older model subwoofer to save $$. If price is a concern for you, it's where you can cut on a surround system without sacrificing looks or performance.

Hi there. These were designed specifically for the Bose 301 with the speaker weight in mind; if you look at the base, it's almost exactly the size of the 301s. I wouldn't be comfortable saying any bookshelf speaker would work with this stand, but these stands are solid, sturdy, and the style complements my all black, sleek entertainment center. If your speakers are lighter and about the same size, you really can't go wrong with this product. Hope this helps!

I am sorry, but do not no your type of speakers. I have 4 Bose 301's the older style big box Bose sub woofer, replaced Bose v10 center with Polk. Polk has larger speakers, pushes better sound, then Bose v10. I hate doing a mix, but main is still Bose, except switch out for Polk center. Also really depends on your amp. I have a Yamaha amp. It worked out, adjusted speakers doing sound test to set levels. For movies have center set higher vs music.

I am not a big expert on amps or speakers. I can tell you that I use four Sony Bookshelf speakers which work just fine. See http://www.amazon.com/Sony-SS-B1000-4-Inch-Bookshelf-Speakers/dp/B000OG88KY/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1423929572&sr=1-1&keywords=Sony+bookshelf+speakers

Hey everyone,I just purchased this system and wanted to jump in. I'm using the Sony STR-DG820 as my receiver and have SS-B1000 bookshelf speakers as my fronts. I bought this system to use as the remainder of a 7.1 channel setup. Polk seemed to recommend the setup that Schor talked about when using their satellites in the package as front speakers. Would anyone recommend this setup with the larger bookshelf speakers or would using the sub-out on the receiver be better? Any thoughts? Thanks

The Marantz PM6005 will work terrific with the Pioneer SP-FS52 speakers! However, a subwoofer is highly recommended with those speakers.

Sorry, not familiar with the Pioneer BS22. I can tell you that I am very pleased with the JBLs. I am running a 35 year old Fisher amp, 55 watts per channel, through them to listen to music (on CD) exclusively. Nice high & middle range, awesome base. Nice package for the size/price.

RC-52 II will also work fine with the speakers you have. I have both the RC-52 and RC-62. I use RC-52 with 8" speakers and it matches just fine.

Should work out fine. The speakers may not be "voiced" exactly the same however but I use Klipsch for my L&R and Center and even though they are perfectly "Matched" according to Klipsch, you can always tell a slight tonal difference between the L&R speakers and the RC-62. NO big deal! Go for it!

HiYes this speaker will work with that. I would recommend however that you match your center speaker to whatever your front speakers are for the best sound. For example if you have pioneer fronts get a pioneer center, etc...

I would check this site, http://www.simplyspeakers.com/speaker-grills.html. Not Pioneer, but should work.
