Yeah they took a little force to get in but they seat nicely. I'm thinking about trying a 162 as a center and keep the PC350 in case I move and don't have room for a bookshelf center.
Please let me know how that P162 compares to the PC350 as a center. I can't stand the PC250 I have right now. I know the best center would be another P362B, but that would interfere with my DLP and produce some nasty vertical off-axis viewing to lift it high enough.
I'll be ordering some plugs. However, I'm surprised spades don't fit, as I attached bare wire by screwing down the post similar to the way one would attach spades. I'm guessing the space between the prongs of the spade is too small to go around the screw attaching the binding post?
