If a receiver doesn't have enough power at a specified volume output, worse come to worse it'll just to clip and trigger the OCP (over current protection). When that happens, then you know not to go to that volume ever again, it's simple.

Tweeters or coils in the speakers only start frying when you push a constant unacceptable load onto them over a significant period of time, of which IF you continue to do despite running into the AVR's auto OCP, then you deserve to have the speakers fried.

No offense but please, when you ask for speaker advise: LIST the model number instead of its design.

With the info you provided, you basically told everyone that no other center speaker will match because people can only guess what you currently have.

Are those the Pioneer AJs? Rev1 or Rev2?

Been quoted for few center speaker
1. Dali Zensor Vokal rm1200
2. Tannoy Mercury VCi rm750
3. KEF C6LCR rm1200

Which one better to match with Onkyo AVR TX-SR507?

You want to match with your front LR speakers, not with your AVR.

From the 3, none of them matches with your Pioneer speakers in tonality.

Nope.
Whether it would sound weird or bad or heck, even good, that's up to your ears to decide.

If you're at a point where you have nothing to lose anyways, then go get either one of the listed centers and hope for the best. If it sounds bad, then plan to upgrade the front LR with matching (or at least as close as possible) sets.

Good suggestion. If the sound weird, replace the front speaker as well. BTW, how to choose a good center speaker?

Can I use back my 7 year old Pioneer home therter speakers (last time bought it around RM1700) and just buy a new AVR (maybe Yamaha RX-V379) with those speakers?

What do I need to look for in order to match the AVR with the old speakers?

Too long to explain how to choose a good center speaker.

Read this instead:
http://www.audioholics.com/loudspeaker-des...channel-designs
http://www.audioholics.com/loudspeaker-des...annel-designs-1
http://www.audioholics.com/loudspeaker-des...speaker-designs

Yes, it's quite a lot of reading but worth it because the center channel is by far the most important channel in a multi-channel setup.
