Quote:

I've been intrigued about dual centres for a long time but have never tried it. There is always an argument about using two speakers on the same channel out of concerns about lobing effects. To make a long story short, two speakers in-phase and symmetrically positioned on either side would produce a lobe at the central viewing axis.

If it sounds good to you that must mean your M2 speakers are far enough apart that you are not experiencing this lobing problem. Maybe you are onto something.



Well, I have M3s right now, they didn't quite match the M22s I bought, and as a backup plan, I was going to use the M3s upstairs if they didn't work out.

The M2s should arrive tomorrow I think...In any case, the M3s right now are 50" or so apart, what is the lobe effect? To me the sound of the dialog is amazing, I wouldn't even consider using a single centre. I have sat both in the sweet spot, and off axis, sounds great from the whole room.
