This is a multi-part question. Currently my center is on a shelf on the tv stand beneath the 55" LED. Should I aim it upward to the seating position or should I mount it above the TV and aim it downward? With either answer, please offer a suggestion of where I can find either a wedge or a shelf? Thanks!

As mentioned in other posts, my setup isn't in the most ideal place. So if there is anything I can do for reflections and what not also let me know.874

I found some black door stops that I placed under my center speaker to angle it. Works perfectly and since they are black, they can't been seen easily.

Such as this: (not black, but you get the idea) http://images.shopletcdn.com/productimages/300x300/167153.JPG

That seems like a great idea. :)

I also considered a small maybe 1/2" 3 ring binder. :P

Wow.....$50 for something you won't even see? If it were me I'd use something from here:

Attach them to the speaker cabinet with double sided tape, Blue tack or QuakeHold putty.

To keep the speaker in place and reduce any vibrations of the glass shelf it sits on, I used a strip of weatherstripping under the rear edge of the speaker.
