I have B-2 bookshelf speakers for left and right. The recommended matching center speaker is C-2 ($299). Best Buy only sells RC-52 (for about $250) -- but I am thinking the RC-62 ($499 MSRP) would be even better. The advice I've heard is to get the center speaker that is recommended for your left/right channels. But if 70% of your sound comes from the center, why wouldn't I want the RC-62? Thank you in advance for your comments.

I'm thinking at least the RC-52 -- but possibly the RC-62.

The left and right are Klipsch Synergy B2.

I have a BIC America DV52di center speaker -- retails for about$120 and sells new for as low as $70. I just saw a Klipsch center speaker at Best Buy. It was about the same size as mine, but about priced at about $350 and I'm thinking about getting it. Does anyone know if I going to hear a noticeable difference in sound?

I'm sorry -- I meant OHMS! (I've been working on some electrical problems too and just wasn't thinking.)

Hi -- I have a Yamaha RX-V661 amp. The front left, right and center speakers, and subwoofer, are 8 ohms. I have five additional small SONY speakers I can use for rear left, right and center speakers, and left and right presence speakers, but they are all 6 ohm speakers. Is that a problem? If not, do you set the amp for 8 ohm speakers, or 6 ohm speakers? Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks for the comments everyone. I just bought a new KLIPSCH RW 12d Sub -- and since I have a cheap SONY amp (too ashamed to lookl up the specs and report them here) , I'm planning on spending aobut $700 on a new Yamaha amp after reading what I read on this forum about Yamaha.

My Sony amp has no sub out our variable audio out, only a pair of clips for a sub woofer speaker wire. So do I need to buy a new amp in order to have a powered sub, or is there some alternative solution? That is -- assuming the sub does not have a High Level Input. If the sub does have a high level input, is the result just as good as if I used a low level input from an amp out? Or should I just scrap the amp and get a better one first?
