Surround ony add a little ambience. Yes you can do what you want, it will not be bad at all.
The rear surround only carry about 5% (to 10% at most)of the signal.

Using a center speaker as only surround speaker?
The couch is against the backwall - I am hoping position the center on its back or angled up at the ceiling may create a better surround effect. I was planning on just L or R and tell the receiver (pioneer elite vsx-29tx) that only one speaker is connected. Any tips or experiments would be appreciated |
I doubt that you will be able to select just one rear speaker, probably a pair or none, therefore you could use this device, http://www.mcmelectronics.com/product/AUDIOPLEX-TECHNOLOGY-MONOMIXER-200B-/50-6693 to send both L & R into a single speaker. Also, you have the right idea to direct the speaker toward the ceiling. This should give you a better effect than facing forward. |
