Good4it Audioholic Chief Aug 23, 2016 #6 I should have said more understandable. I've tried different speakers and still have problems understanding . Increasing volume is one way but there is a limit. Just looking for other, serious ways.

WaynePflughaupt Audioholic Samurai Aug 23, 2016 #14 If your receiver has dedicated EQ for the center channel, increase the siblings (+4 dB or so on the 6-7 kHz range) and /or reduce lower-end bloom (-4-6 dB on the 200 Hz range). Regards, Wayne A. Pflughaupt

S shadyJ Speaker of the House Staff member Aug 23, 2016 #15 It's possible that congested area around the speakers is making the off-axis response a larger factor than it would be otherwise, and that center speaker design does not have a very promising off-axis response. Refer to this post.
