try running your setup again and make sure the mic is in the main listening position.

Also when the main soundtrack of a movie is mixed, it will be mixed at around 86db, what this means is when you listen to the movie at a lower volume than what it was intended to be listened to you will notice a significant drop in the center and surround speakers typically. If you amp has a correction setting for the volume so it will auto adjust this problem turn it on. One way to test this is when watching a movie find a part where the dialog is low from the center speaker at your normal volume, rewind and turn it up you will notice the center sounds more in tune with the rest of the movie.

Hope this helps

Does incorrect speaker phasing make speakers behave badly?

What Blu-ray Audio output are you setting it at? 5.1 analog? PCM?

For A-B, try just 2 Channel sound and see if voice is more prominent..

Hook-up is Such a pain . .
