Autospec, I am a Klipsch guy ( never worked for them, but 50 years of Klipsch in my blood ). Many Belles were sold as single center speakers, during the days of monaural, to fill the empty gap between the wide distance between the corner horns ( Klipschorn ). What is the configuration on the crossover ? Is it just a plus and minus from the amplifier, as any other speaker ? I do not recall any speaker from Klipsch wired differently. I think the situation in using this center channel in a 2 channel rig, would be, how do you sum the left and right signals together to create a mono signal, to feed a monaural amp, to feed this Belle, without disturbing the stereo left and right of the system. I might be completely off track, but that is what I feel the Klipsch tech was talking about. A multi channel preamp, having a dedicated center channel, which in a HT system, has dialogue, mostly in movies, with steering logic circuitry sent to the center channel, and, it is not a mono signal. Typically, on older Klipsch Heritage speakers using terminal blocks, whatever crossover is used, the 2 right outer terminals on the block edge closest to you, on the crossover, are where the amp connections are. Enjoy ! MrD.
