jimjimbo Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I have two KV3 Center channel speakers. Can these be used together somehow in a 5.1 or 7.1 setup and if so, how to wire them? Thanks for any help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wuzzzer Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 They can. Just use one, though. That's why there's only one center speaker output. You can use it as a rear center in a 6.1 setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree completely. Most surround AVR's can handle a 6.1, and I am here to tell you it works just fine. I run a 6.2 in a huge area. The rear channel in surround is mono anyway.

Gilbert Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 I have two KV3 Center channel speakers. Can these be used together somehow in a 5.1 or 7.1 setup and if so, how to wire them? Thanks for any help. I'm not familiar with the KV3, and thought these were purely Bluetooth only. But if you can hardwire them, then yes, absolutely you can run dual KV3 centers.... this assumes your amp can handle the impedance drop for that channel. At one time, I ran dual Cornwall center channels (connected in parallel), and if it weren't for the space premium they consumed, I'd still be running them today in my new home. Makes a for one hell of a front stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jason str Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Find one more and use them for Left, Center & right channels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes a for one hell of a front stage. Dual centers... one above the screen and one below. That is how I did mine years ago, and it worked much better than one in my opinion. You just angle the top one down toward the listening position... This is the next best thing to having a center behind your screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebes Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 The center channel on these KG V's series are voiced for dialogue on HT, not ambient main sound. They have two cone speaks and a compression tweet. Me, I'd use on and sell/barter the other for some dedicated KG rears. Fro what you'd get for the KV 3, you'd be able to buy, say, a pair of KG 1.5's, which also make wonderful bookshelves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
