I have been going Center-less since the beginning of my HT days back in 1993. I have found that unless you basically get another identical MAIN (L or R) for the center, the sound stage sounds rather odd. (of course in an affordable range for a full speaker system for HT MINUS SUB: 1000-1500$) I'm not sure if it's that I'm not a fan of the "on-screen" information being anchored to the screen, or that most center channel speakers are rather lacking compared to most's main L/R speakers.
Anyone else go Phantom in their front soundstage? Anyone not like Center channel, or have a real reason why it's good or not good to go with or without.
My current train of thought leads me to think I will TRY a center...but may go without when I upgrade all the rest of the speakers. I already have the SVS...so why would I want a piddly speaker to localize all the main information to an inadequate center channel speaker???
thoughts?
edit: sorry this may be in the wrong area...can someone move it to speakers??? if it needs to be...
