Hi,

Recently bought a set of 5.1 speaker (Boston) & found out the sound is not clear. If i replace the center speaker with Klipsch RC52 or etc, will it help to make the sound clearer (especially during playing song )?

Hope all the expert will help.

Many Thanks notworthy.gif

Hate to say this since it has already been said, but ..  you should have auditioned the speakers first leh...  nod.gif

You said 'sound' not clear but what you mean by 'sound'.  If you mean dialogue, yes, can think of changing centre.  If music/soundtrack, then have to change Fronts. 

If its just three days old, why not ask for a change?  Expecially if its from those Audio Shops, can nego wan. 

BTW, did you buy it fr Lowyat?

I did test b4 buy but due to my budget ~2 to 3k for both AVR & speakers , the shop recommend 2 choices - 1. Denon DHT390 & 2. Boston + Denon 1509..after testing, the 2nd set obviously having better performance....but when i go back home & found out the sound is not so clear especially compare to my bro set (Wharfedale speakers + Pioneer AVR & more expensive)... sweat.gif ...But the set is actually good for movie but not in audio music & dialogue..so thinking to improve to make it "all rounded" for both music & movie.... smile.gif ..now feeling a thorn inside my heart as not perfect yet... blush.gif

i bought this in Mediaplex in Midvalley... i dont think they allow me to change as already open box.. sad.gif

It's hard to expect a speaker set at that price to be perfect. If you compared to your bro's more expensive set then not a fair comparison. You get what you pay for.

Anyway, do try going back to Mediaplex and ask. No harm in at least asking if you can upgrade. They might do trade in.
