B&W HTM - 1 OR a pair of 805N's?

The price is the same, using one of these options as a center channel. Everything points to the pair of 805's, any reason I should not?

Anyone experiment with 805's or any other brand and use 2 center channels?

The HTM-1 is basically a 804 N laying on its side I think the HTM-1 ability to produce better midbass and lower freqencies over the 805N would be its advantage. Paul

I am not sure of the shielding issues, but it would not be an issue for my set up. I am using a screen so no issues there. Dan

Go with the HTM1, it is clearly better than the HTM2, which is an 805 in a different box. What possible reasons point to the pair of 805s?
