Like this? Shouldn't you just ignore them? I mean, if you say you're
ignoring something, you aren't really ignoring it, are you?

I have a center channel question. My tv system has Linn Kabers with an
active crossover and tri-amped (take that Cantatas!), but I'd like to
add a center speaker someday, if only to hear those three channel
classical reissues. The new Linn speakers are too expensive and aren't
really a perfect match unless I add to the cost by spending for a
tweeter upgrade with no local dealer.

Hi Stephen,

Did Audio Systems on W. Koenig go belly up?

I suppose I could find some used
Kabers; the biggest problems there would be that they aren't shielded so
placement would be trickier. How dissimilar can a center channel be and
give acceptable results?

If the Martin-Logan CC solutions are any indication, the answer is VERY
dissimilar. I didn't think it would ever blend but it sounds fantastic. It
supposedly measures poorly but who cares when it works as well as it does.

But frankly I'd get a DLP monitor and used Kabers. It would be the cheapest
and best sounding -not to mention looking- solution.

Cheers,

Margaret
