    Best centre speaker for clear vocals in movies?

    Best centre speaker for clear vocals in movies?

    I upgraded from a MTM 2.5 way to a 4 driver 3 way and noticed a big upgrade in sound quality, and intelligibility. If you can find a specific movie/scene where you find it difficult to hear speech I'll try it

    As for digital out/analogue, what model Marantz is it? Does it have analogue bypass/pure direct mode? If it doesn't then best to use digital sources

    So OP what movies/scenes do you find hard to listen to? Maybe I could try on mine and see if it's ok. Any local shops where you can try a quality center (even if it outclasses the rest of your system)

    HEOS Cannot play entire album anymore?

    yes if using a dedicated streamer you'll need two remotes/two apps, or a single programmable universal remote. Phone for universal "for all" is terrible experience. Even if there was a app that controlled everything it'll still be horrid (no hard buttons) Other benefits of dedicated streamer...

    HEOS Cannot play entire album anymore?

    Tbh I'd strongly recommend a dedicated streamer. Wiim pro (if using digital out) instead of avr streamer. Just a better experience.

    Best centre speaker for clear vocals in movies?

    Akshully having a sub means you are no longer sending full range to speakers which helps that speaker immensely. Several benefits to that from lessening the demand on your amp, easier load as frequencies it was amplifying sent to sub, impedance/lower frequency range lower independence...

    Best centre speaker for clear vocals in movies?

    No. As for op get a higher quality center speaker. I don't have any issues about hearing speech on mine apart from Nolan mixes. I use a decent three way center. What specific movie is it, what scene in the movie runtime etc.

    Problem with voice clarity since moving to surrround setup.

    I don't know, contact your TV maker.

    Problem with voice clarity since moving to surrround setup.

    You want matching LCR. That is the most important matching those speakers. Go for the Triangle.

    Problem with voice clarity since moving to surrround setup.

    Bet you'll notice sound quality loss. Yes you may have dedicated center but minx and tower way different

    Problem with voice clarity since moving to surrround setup.

    Don't even bother! Get the matching Triangle center Minx is such a poor speaker and downgrade over using your Triangle in phantom center mode.

    Samsung OLED deals

    Lol sure. The Samsung LCD TV I was was decent enough apart from 50hz banding on the backlight. Plasma had awful image retention and awful pixel colour graduation and shimmering. Pc monitor dying leds

    Best centre speaker for clear vocals in movies?

    Adding a sub with a AV system means bass from speakers is directed to sub typically <80hz. Not sure about Sonos junk As for speech being hard to hear use dialogue enhance mode.
