I like it for movies. They are mixed that way to begin with and with the right center it sounds great. You should have all 3 fronts the same but in many cases you just can't. I don't have all 3 the same but I built a center that is very close to my mains so it works fine."It doesn't seem to compress and decrease the volume of background music and other sounds like the true center channel does"
Something sounds like its not set-up correctly if it is compressing and decreseing the volume. I had a similar occurance and changed my center and set it up more carefully. If any thing it should make the front cleaner and give you more headroom with the added amp. Could be power. I run my center with about 3db more power available then my mains because of the percentage of the mix it is required to reproduce.
