    That is how they erect covered bridges south* of the Mason-Dixon line, isn't it?

    * Way south of the Mason-Dixon line.

    More New England snobbery. Next you'll criticize Southerners for finding innovative ways to reuse corn cobs. You call it gross, they call it recycling.

    I know what some folks do with corn cobs -- especially nowadays, given that Sears no longer publishes a catalog :)

    There are foolish people everywhere. North, south, east, west, doesn't matter. I have spent some time in the south (bro lives outside Atlanta) and New England (Army). Outside the city areas I did see a lot of creative work around's. Some are great ideas and some not so great. Most of it is based on money. When people don't have the proper means to afford something they will try to make what they want or need.

    Now using a tower speaker like that gave me nightmares last night. It is no way based on money, it is just plain foolishness. If the OP can afford the tower he could have went an got some concrete blocks and 2x10 and made a TV stand that would have room for a center.
    When I was a kid my parents told me to turn it down. Now I'm an adult and my kids tell me to turn it down.

    Time to let this die yet? Seems like it... :/
    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    No fun without the participation of the OP.
    2 channel: Anthem 225 Integrated amp; Parasound Ztuner; TechnicsTT SL1350; Vincent PHO-8 phono pre; Marantz CD6005 spinner; Polk SDA2BTL's; LAT International speaker cables, ZU Mission IC's and power cables all into a PS Audio Dectet Power center.

    Other; M10 series II, M7C's, Hafler XL600 amp, RB-980BX, Parasound HCA-1500 amp , P5 preamp, all in storage. All vintage Polk have had crossover rebuilds and tweeter upgrades.

    The best way to predict the future is to invent it.

    It is imperative that we recognize that an opinion is not a fact.

    Imagine making politics your entire personality.

    meh, I dunno, the presence or absence of the OP seems nearly moot.
    We're pretty much in the state of damped harmonic oscillation now -- it'll fade out in a few pages, slow but sure.

    I have no horse in this race. You have all been more than gracious to me and very helpful. Especially Jessy and Mhardy. I am jess chiming in because I am amazed that this post has gone on with this many responses ? Fun for all. Such an amazing world we live in these days. Reminds me of an ancient Chinese saying of good will ." May you live in interesting times" No doubt about it. We are. Peace to all involved. D

    I'm reminded of a Chinese proverb too. "Man who stand on toilet, high on pot. Then he uses a regular tower speaker on its side as a center"

    And when you walk out of the bathroom, you're finnish :D

    I will send him to school with jokes about hook ers and a chrome, pearl-handled Colt cap gun on his hip just like the one I had when I was a kid...





    J/k about the jokes. :D:Do:)

    The above Craig's List/ Klipsch front speaker array is actually somewhat inspiring. It shows how creative placement can put the most sound into small spaces.
    :)

    I'm trying to get in touch with these audio engineers. They seemed to have the right method for getting the most sound of a small space.

    The OP is only 6 posts away from being able to sell stuff here so he can get his teeth fixed. Just trying to help the guy out.
