Much speed increase?!

Indeed! The extra amp oomph should make them crackers! Be a very good sub I imagine!

Almost certainly, stock is low on PB-3000 though so people will need to be quick!

Well it'll work using the Sony as a centre speaker, but it'll sound odd compared to the JBL's. In a surround setup it's desirable (or essential if you're looking for the optimum sound) for your front three speakers to have the same timbre. Anything panning across the front soundstage will sound...

What is your speaker setup currently?
