Can the center speaker be the same as the rest? (1 Viewer)

[BobMcN]

I've been piecemealing an inexpensive HT system. I picked up 2 pairs of AR 215PS speakers for the fronts and rears. I've been looking for an AR center and was decided on the 2C, but it seems to have been recently discontinued and unavailable anywhere. This seems to be the case for all of the inexpensive AR centers.

I can get another set of the AR 215PS speakers and use one for the center front. Would this be better than getting a "real" center (the usual MTM arrangement)? I have a Kenwood VR606 receiver which is 6.1, so I expect that I can use the extra 215PS for a center rear - is this a correct assumption? I have a Parts Express sub to orund out the bottom end.

Thanks,
Bob

That's the way to go -

Same speaker in every spot. Have you been to accessories4less.com?

Site is down right now, but they carry AR, discontinued as well.
