Audio drop out in front center speaker

[scoob958]

I have the Yamaha RX-V465. When I get to a particularly loud and intense scene in a movie the sound in the center speaker drops really low so you can't hear the dialog all you can hear is whatever is coming out of the other 4 surround speakers. The helicopter chase scene from Wolverine was a prime example of a movie I had this problem on over the weekend. Once that scene ended the sound was fine again. Anyone know what the problem is I could be having? It did it during one scene in Whip It last night as well. But only momentarily as that movie really isn't that loud and intense.

Thanks

What db level (channel level) do you have the center channel set at in your receiver?

Also, check your wiring and make sure that the positive and negative are not touching at the terminal posts on the back of the speaker or in the back of the receiver.
