To me the main reason for a center speaker is if you sit off to one side. Then the center speaker makes the dialogue seem to come out of the tv. Finding a center speaker that actually matches the fronts is not all that easy. My office is about the size of your room and I don't feel any need to get another speaker. I just feel like if you don't need it and you like the sound of your fronts by themselves, don't mess with it. Dan
Importance of Center Channel in small room
Listening to my friends HT system in his huge den, the center channel contribution is substantial.
Listening to my 2.1 in my 10 x 12 HT room, seems like center channel would be beneficial but optional.
Have any of you experimented with a center in a small HT room, determined how big was the impact?
One nice thing I think if I had center is that I could widen the front pair and create a wider soundstage.
Thanks,
