Quintets or KSB 1.1?

First of all I want to say I love my Quintets for the money. Currently I have 2 quintets and a quintet center with crappy Technics surround speakers and a JBL 10in sub running off an Onkyo 595. On ebay I see tons of KSB 1.1 selling for close to nothing. Are the KSB 1.1 better than the Quintets? If I used the 1.1 as mains, would they match up with the quintet center channel? I am only thinking about it because they have a large enough driver to actually play mid bass. Right now the JBL sub is playing everything up to 100hz. I have very limited funds and floor space so bigger speakers are out of the question. Any comments are appreciated.

I believe you would find the 1.1's to sound better than the Quintets, especially if you put some music through them, as you point out.

As far as a center goes, would a 1.1 fit in your setup as a center? Buy 3 pairs, and you'd have an identically matched setup for 5.1/6.1.
