Horizontal Center Channel Speakers and Why They Should Be Avoided

[repete66211]

Speaker companies make their center channels horizontal because many/most people have their TV on furniture that can't house tower speakers or those tower speakers would block the view of the TV. If your layout can accommodate a tower center channel then by all means do it, but I think it's a bit dramatic to arrange your entire TV room around it or to propose that the difference between vertical and horizontal center channels is night and day. Theoretically the argument is there but practically I don't think you're suffering to keep the center horizontal.
