I don't know about SACD but as for DVD most have only a 2 channel output, relying upon decoding circuitry in the preamp/receiver. I personally wouldn't go without a center channel. For one thing it sounds more natural to me, but mainly I think it's best to have the same system in the home as in the studio that it was originally mixed on, and that means having a center channel. On the other hand I really don't care for the sound that music mixed to stereo has when listened to in surround.
