In Reply to: Re: newbie-ish question- phantom center - or just two channel movies ? posted by townsend on March 19, 2006 at 20:02:58:
You are talking about the upstairs system, correct? The room is so small that you can't have rear speakers, correct?I would say, just go with stereo, set up so the two speakers appear to "disappear." The down side may be that the listening position may not allow for this, in which case go for the center to "anchor" dialogue to the screen.
The other option is grab a speaker from another system & use it as the center to test what works for your situation, before buying a dedicated center.
Follow Ups:
Thanks for your advice.Yes, I am talking about the upstairs system, which is set up in a "spare" bedroom (approximately 11' by 12').
I do have an older Boston Acoustics speaker I can set up and test as a center speaker, before committing to purchasing a dedicated center speaker.

If you are going to set levels, remember you need a sound pressure meter. Radio Shack has one that is not very expensive. Just please don't tell me you can set the levels by "EAR" because NO ONE CAN! You need a sound pressure meter.
