Seems like the wife is telling you that you need to upgrade the home audio system.The quality of the electronics and speakers can have as much effect as the configuration (phantom versus "physical" center). With tube amps and dipole L&R front speakers, 99.9% of dialog is quite clear in my setup.
Perhaps the midrange (voice) frequencies are suppressed (or too much bass and treble) in your setup?
BTW a large video screen between the speakers will adversely affect the sound. Not just imaging, but also tonal! I was testing out what a 50" diagonal LCD/DLP rear-projector TV would "sound" like by using a piece of plywood stood up between the speakers. Besides having a flattened image, a saxophone recording seemed off-tone on a few notes.
