| Re: Anyone using multiple fronts and centers?
Several HT builders at AVS have more than one centre speaker..as I have also..but not duplicate L or R or backs.
They have one centre speaker mounted above the screen and one mounted under the screen..
Angling a single centre speaker up or down can sometimes have an adverse effect..particularly with centre speakers that have rear firing drivers and or ports
Instead of directing the sound towards the centre line of the screen, the sound becomes more localized, infact not angling the speaker can sometimes work better..
Having a top and bottom centre speaker helps to offset the problem..
I have three centre speakers, one above the screen and two below...The top speaker has two rear firing bass speakers and ports, and the bottom speakers have rear firing ports..
They are wired in series/parallel to maintain impedance matching with the other speakers..
The result of this setup is that I get good strong pinpoint voice location across the entire screen, with no emphasis above or below the horizontal centre line of the screen..
