Speed Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 (edited) I want to use a LS as a center channel to go with my LS mains. My receivers preamp output has only a single output for the center channel, do I have to use a mono amp ? If not, how do I connect the single speaker to a 2 channel amp? Thanks...

minermark Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 The is one method, you will need another amp for the center channel. All my amps have gain controls, so I used 27k resistors in place of the 25k pots shown. I used a 2 3/4 X 2 X 1 3/4 aluminum box, 5 RCA connectors, and 7 - 27k ohm 1/4 watt resistors. Looks Dam fine to me ! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappydue Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Do you have two two channel amps? If so then just use one channel? Or you could buy a mono amp. Or sell your current amp and buy a nice three channel amp. Lol. Lots of options. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speed Posted March 18, 2014 Author Share Posted March 18, 2014 Yes, I have a 2 channel amp for my mains, and a 2 channel amp for my surrounds. I just need an amp for my LS center. I found the same amp I am currently using for my mains, so I am hoping I can buy it and use it for single LS center. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
