Can somebody clarify this for me ...

I'm making some changes ... now, all my speakers are able to handle 65Hz to 20Khz (except my center 120Hz - 20Khz ); I set my crossover to 80Hz, but what will happen with the center speaker??? ... it will be receiving signals that can't process ... Will this damage the speaker??? ... Will I miss something in that range (80Hz-120Hz)??? ... I will get a new speaker for the center, hopefully soon ...

I know that I can set the crossover at 120Hz, but I'm trying to avoid the sub localization
You will lose a little bit of information in your center if you set it to small and 80Hz crossover. It's not going to damage anything. You can use it that way until you get a new center. I'd say try it both ways (try 80 and also try 120) and see which way sounds better to you (use some music)
