Some amplifier questions
I would certainly like to do without a center channel but I am under the impression that dialogue will certainly suffer if I leave it out? What I have read is that soundtracks are mixed for a L&R and center channel so when you leave out the ce... 
Some amplifier questions
Yesterday the audio rack arrived so I measured it and the space is 7'x20" where the center channel will sit. I am a little afraid to not have a center speaker as Dbphd suggests because I am having some trouble understanding some dialogue and that ...

Soix, I hate to admit it but I have no idea what room/speaker correction is on an audio amp. I am only going to have 3 spaces below the television to put gear. A center speaker, blu-ray and what ever amp/preamp goes in the last slot unless I can d... 
Some amplifier questions
The television currently sits on a dresser but I have ordered an audio rack to replace it. However, the space for the center speaker is only 27" wide by 8" tall so that wouldn't work for the Magnepan center and may be a problem with some other pic...

What is my next step?
I had never heard of a soundbar until I posted this thread. I did read about them and they may be a good choice for one room but I have another room with the same TV. In that room I will listen to music as well as watch TV so I probably need somet...

Mark, I don't know enough to know what I am looking at. Can you tell me why I should consider this amp? Thanks... 
Amps for Klipschorn speakers
Good information, guys. So far, all of the SS amps I have tried on the Khorns have been too bright. I brought over a friends Marantz 8b today but it only worked on one channel and one tube started glowing so I turned it off so I didn't really get ... 
Amps for Klipschorn speakers
I have been looking at the Atma-spheres particularly the M60 mono blocks and the MP-3 pre amp. They seem to get rave reviews but I am a little worried about the heat they might put off and just having an amp with that many tubes so I am still on t...
