*IF* I could adjust the phantom center mix, and especially the level of it, I would happily prefer that way. It doesn't seem to be happening...guess they want to sell more gear. I think the 6.1 stuff is aimed at fussier people, so you can buy an extra pair of matching speakers, one for the center and one for the rear, instead of trying to get a single. That way you're spending more $$ and feel you're matching properly.

DPL-II should provide you with the ability to adjust the width of the front soundstage -- the amount of material sent to the center vs.left and right speakers. I forget which adjustment variable this is.
The detail I left out, I have JBL S310s for fronts, and S38s for the rears. So, a nice JBL bookshelf two way, that I like, or their flagship "Center speaker". Do centers HAVE to be shaped so weird?
Thanks for the all the advice so far. And I will try 4.1.
