I am constructing a dedicated home theater for a client and would like a recommendation for both main and center speakers. I am planning to use Magnum 15lf for the subs. I am limited by the built-in cabinet design to a 10" center speaker, but can accomodate up to 15" for the mains. Price is not a primary concern, though i do not want to spend extra on upgraded drivers if it will not be noticed. Can I get away with a smaller cabinet size than recommended in the speaker specs, since all signals below 80 hz will be sent the subs? I am thinking of using delta pro 12 for the mains and delta 10's for the center speaker? Would moving up to jbl 2226 be a recommended upgrade? If possible, I would like to stay with a driver configeration that I can purchase from the PI website in kit form, since the crossovers, etc have already been engineered.

I assume that the center speaker will be located near the television, unless you are planning on using a projector. How do you plan to magnetically isolate your driver from the tv? I think that a subwoofer/center speaker combo would make a nice stand for a tv, if you could shield the drivers. Perhaps you are going with a hang-it-on-the-wall approach? Are plasma and/or LC displays affected by magnetic fields?
