Yes, 10-in L/R, 7-in C, LS, RS (all DIY) and pair of vintage Altec VOTT 15-in
SWs.
Matching Planar Magnetic Midranges and Ribbon Super-Tweeters.
But I frequently listen to just the 42-in Hitachi Plasma (large detachable
speakers)
plus an external 7-in "sub-woofer" I built as a separate section in the Center
speaker.

Sorry if this has been covered already - I haven't been following this thread.

Further trolling on www.linearacoustic.com revealed yet another mechanism
for "missing dialog", esp. during sports events...or with an overly aggressive
synthetic surround mix:

Several music and sports broadcasts (incl. FOX) have been using SRS Circle
Surround
encoding to synthetically "enhance" their ambience:

Which is why they sound "fake".......
The Stereo (Lt/Rt) downmix would contain an ample amount of anti-phase signals.
Linear Acoustic claims that the synthetic surround processors in some
TVs and AV Receivers somehow gets confused and nulls out the Center channel.
But, I've never "fixed" a missing dialog problem in a Stereo program by simply
switching off my AV Receiver's PL-II synthetic surround mode....so go figure....
