I don't have a place for the center speaker.
Except for the TV itself, my front speakers are the most expensive component in my system. They are 32-inch-tall floor standing speaker cabinets with 12-inch woofers -- Cerwin-Vega VS-120's. (A lot of the listening I do is out of just those two speakers.) Their center-to-center separation distance is too small -- about 5.3 ft.
I feel that if I could separate them further, and if I could find a center speaker of comparable quality, and if I was an off-center listener, I would benefit from a center speaker.
Some of these restrictions occur because, for some reason, my spouse feels that our living room should have an attractive appearance, sometimes at the expense of a more elaborate home theatre system. To her credit, though, she does have other qualities that offset this particular shortcoming.
What I really need is a new house with a room dedicated to home theatre. Then I'd have an excuse to spend more money on better equipment, like a good center speaker.
