Howdy. I'm curious what some of you experts think about center channels, as I currently do not use one at all. On a recent thread about L150's, I read some discussion about how important the center is for watching movies, something that I was unaware of. I have an L150 that I use as my fronts. For rear speakers, I use an old set of Optimus STS100's (small bookshelfs). Also, I have no subwoofer. Would I be better off hooking up one of these as my center, and not using ANY rears?
I guess I'm looking for advice on what to add as a center channel. On that other thread, the L112 was suggested. Since money is an issue with me, I am curious what would be the smarter purchase: a powered subwoofer, or a center channel speaker (eventually I'll get both, but for now just one'll do). To keep on topic, I would prefer JBL to Optimus speakers. For you veterans, how often does one find single speakers on ebay (or elsewhere), as opposed to pairs (since I only need one). Finally, any suggestions besides the L112, or is that the optimal pairing (if there IS even such a thing), given my L150 fronts? As for my rears, I'll probably be keeping them for awhile. Also on my get-list is a nice 6230 for those 150's. Thanks to anyone who feels like edgyoukatin' me. I know I'm asking A LOT of questions. As you can tell, I'm sortuva newbie.
If this is covered in previous topics, just let me know...I didn't see anything offhand...thanks a TON!!!
