If you're listening with the center not hooked up, make sure you disable it in the receiver. If you don't, all the info sent the the center (the majority of voices) gets lost and you'll only hear the echos and other stuff that is sent to the main speakers. You could also just switch your receiver to stereo so that it only sends info to your two mains.
