that sounds like a good plan. if that doesn't work, just go to a local audio/video store and ask to listen to one of their home theater setups both with and without a center channel... they should be happy to comply if they think you'll buy one from them.
i went for a long time without a center channel and thought i wasn't missing much, but it definitely helps to have one... and just yesterday i found out what it would be like to have a GOOD one. wow, fucking incredible... i was at a high-end A/V shop and they had a home theater setup with martin logan speakers. when you sat down on the couch, it sounded like the people on the screen were standing right in front of you talking. of course, that center channel was probably well over $1000 alone... so i really should stop thinking about how nice it would look/sound in my living room.
