I am new to Home Theatre stuff.
Yesterday I bought an Onkyo tx sr608 receiver and a B & W 10 inch active subwoofer (both second hand). Today I hooked them up together with my 20 year old B & W 600 i bookshelf speakers and I enjoyed the new sound it created.
Then I added the Philips surrounds (THX certified but only 15 watts) that are still on the wall from our former television. That also sounded quite allright. I enjoyed my Super Audio CD Dark side of the moon from Pink Floyd.
But our new television though (Samsung 48 inch 3D LED tv) doesn't have a place underneath for a center speaker (it isn't mounted on the wall but standing on a cabinet). At the moment I have my amp configured with NO Center, but I am wondering if adding a center might give me more enoyment.
But like I said our tv is standing on a cabinet and the only girlfriend-accepted-way to add a center is to place it behind the tv so that it fires just underneath the tv through the holes of the mount. And then there's is also a Xbox 360 Kinetics sensor blocking the audio.
Could I use my tv's speaker as center? If so, how could I do that. The manual of the televsision didn't give me an answer.
Does any of you people know center speaker that are only 6 cm's broad? I was thinking of buying a Cambridge Audio Minx MIni 22 for a center.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
