you did not give the room dimensions....

my room is a 10X10 room, and i have L/R/C. to be honest, i should have saved myself the money that i spent on the center. if anything i would recommend a 2.1 system. if you set the speakers up correctly, you won't miss the center, do you plan on aiming for best acoustics?...

just food for though.

and i am a big fan of a large center, as i have a vp180 in the family room.. so i am not against having a center, just in this specific application i do not think it is entirely needed..
