Hello,

I've considering a 5.1 setup with the ML Electromotion for the L/R. However the dealer I demoed with said the ML centers/surrounds weren't as good for a fantastic movie experience. (He didn't have the ML centers with him so that I could make any judgement). But he did mention that customers where he installed the ML centers weren't too happy with the HT experience.

I have two queries.

1) Anyone recommend any other center channel for use with Electromotions? Budget of $1500
2) Should I even consider using other brand center channels? I have demoed the Usher X-616 and found it fantastic for my needs. But haven't demoed it alongside the Electromotions.

I posted this query on avsforums and the general reaction was that there would be a timbre mismatch. I would like to hear from folks who've used MLs and wanted to check how you think about the center channel :)


Thanks
 
You will want an ML center as other will not blend properly. The only way I could see someone unhappy with an ML center is if it was under powered or set up wrong.
