You ARE trying to center the voice, while the system in "MONO" mode, right?

That can be a big problem. System balance should be checked with a mono signal. You might also find these test CDs of great value: (http://music.barnesandnoble.com/search/product.asp?r=1&EAN=90368003720&ourl=Chesky%2DRecords%2DJazz%2DSampler%2DAudiophile%2DTest%2DCompact%2DDisc%2DVol%2D1) Stereophile Test CD, Vol 1 here: (http://www.enjoythemusic.com/magazine/music/0704/stereophile.htm) Both discs provide tests and tones that make it easy to lock down your central image. The Chesky disc also has a Listening Environment Diagnostic Recording(LEDR), that will show you if your system's soundstage presentation is up to par.
