agreed but in addition

If the mains are good for the replication of the singing voice they should be fine for the spoken word.
I would add that the center speaker must be able to deliver the slam- bang of movies. Smaller bookshelf- style speakers may simply not be big enough. So if a main speaker can rock it can also bang as a center.
I recently watched/listened to McCartney's 'Driving Tour' DVD with 5.1 and with just the mains and sub. I liked the latter better but the 5.1 did give a sense of being in the arena. The two channel with gave me much better sound than the older speaker I use for center. I will upgrade my center to match the mains as closely as possible. At least using the same tweeter as the mains. Bill
