It is best to angle (tilt up / down) the center channel to a certain degree that the drivers seem to be 'aiming' at your ears. So, it make no difference if it is on top or bottom as long as you get the correct tilt.

Practically speaking most people will put below the TV because u tend to have more support (e.g. a shelf or cupboard below the TV). If you put above the TV you need to install a mount, and it's not easy finding a solid wall mount for center speaker (which can be quite big).

Aesthetically having the center speaker below the TV makes it blend in more with the rest of the furniture. You put it above, it's gonna stick out (like a sore thumb).
