    Looking to find a speaker to centre between Mirage M-3's in a home theatre behind an acoustically transparent screen. I can get a Mirage OM-C2 that matches for $350 Cdn but was curious if I might find a contemporary neutral floorstander/bookshelf that could do a better job. I'm considering a Kef...

    NHT 1.1 C

    What is different about the NHT Super One and NHT Super 1.1C. I know the C is designed for center use, but I am considering using a pair of them for front left and right. Will they sound as good as the NHT Super One's??

    Center channel question

    Hi Forum: I have never been a big fan or surround sound systems at home (unless you have a dedicated media room well setup with the acoustics to match, etc.) , however I do enjoy watching movies via my sound system on 2 channels. I came to realize that without a center channel it seems...

    Can center be too low ? Your preference?

    I have this center low but tried to face it upwards with cardboard . It’s a lcr like set up . Can not bring a mono surround to back because coat tree . I could not find a better spot for center unless I put it we’re the front speakers are but that could be odd? And it wouldn’t be in center .

    DIY MONO CENTER CHANNEL — ADVICE?

    I'm strictly a two-channel stereo guy... though it could change. (It's ironic, I'm a film-maker but have no interest in home theater, so I don't have multi-channel amps.) I'd like to add a mono center channel for Music, but must do it using two-channel amps/ preamps. Stereo had a big problem...
