    Nice video! I'm curious, why would you avoid the auto switching rca inputs? Wouldn't they all be of the same sound quality since they are all on the auto switch? I have the Russound x225 and I was considering using them

    Thanks -- I have no issue with the auto input switching capability, I would expect both inputs to sound nice. For some people, or some circumstances, I can imagine it could be a unique and helpful feature. It's just a "extra" feature that for me, personally, I don't see a need for.

    I just want to add a center speaker to my stereo for better dialogue. Unfortunately the surround sound systems today assume that everybody wants a sub woofer and ever increasing number of surround speakers. I do not want the clutter nor do I care for the "surround" experience.

    You may be able to go into receiver setup menu, and select that you have main right, left and center speakers, and turn the other surround speaker settings to off.
