HI
I need a center channel for the "clearest voice" audio available around $300 my mom has hearing aids but there still not perfect.

70% movies 30% gaming

preferably not rear ported

sold in us and available on amazon

current setup:
7.2 Pioneer Andrew Jones speakers (2 towers and 2bookshelfs) minus the center for that i have Yamaha ns c210.
Sony str-dh790 receiver.

Thanks for your time

Before spending your money, you could try:

* Increasing the volume of the center channel.
* If your receiver has EQ for the center channel, try a few dB boost at ~2 kHz.

Seconded. You should be able to fix the problem with what you have by making adjustments with the receiver.

But if you want a better matched center, I'd suggest the center speaker from the same Andrew Jones line you have now. They're very highly regarded.
