    Need a recommendation on cc speaker. Old ears (75) and damaged hearing (tinnitus) makes dialog a challenge. 5.1.2 system with Elac Debut 5.2 for L/C/R. Good for music, only ok on dialog. HT is 90%. 14x14x9 room (yes, I know about the nodes, not an issue). 10′ from cc to mlp. Not loud (-30), mostly on-axis or close (3-wide sofa). cc is set up to higher dB (6-7 dB) than L/R. Have tried most set-up improvements (rugs, absorbers, eq, dsp, toe-in, etc), the problem is me and not system. Is there a cc that might help (eg Klipsch 450c) ? Would update L/R as req’d if I find a better center. Willing to budget $1000 on cc if it truly helps.

    I am deaf in one ear. I had a Klipsch RC62ii with RP280F fronts. I was always playing with the center volume to try and get good, clear dialog. I upgraded to the RF450C and the difference is magical. Don’t know how it would match up with your fronts, but the speaker is crazy good.
