I am in the process of revising my home theatre setup
I have V3s and the V series Monster Center (the actual pair on the website)
The V monster center is quite the beast

I use an Arcam HR350 (100 watts into 7) and JL Audio F113 sub
it works nicely with the V series but I want that top end magic the HT3s have and even more enhanced Soundscape raal and accutron section for the all encompassing center channel.

I am looking to use my idle HT3s and thought that upgrading even further to the Soundscape Center would be ideal


Is anyone using HT3s with a Soundscape Center?

I'd be curious to hear your thoughts

Tom -

Sounds like a great idea.  But I am quite sure no one has done that to this point.  As I recall, all SoundScape centers were sold to people with SoundScape mains (with the exception of some Avalon owners).

thanks for the insight Jim

I smell guinea pig here

The V3s sensitivity is 86 db and they are a bit easier to drive than the HT3s (84 db) on my system

The SS8 at 87 db should work
I am thinking about  pass thru for the mains using a Moscode 401 HR
May do just fine with the Arcam for the center channel

this is for a HT room, not my 2 channel setup for music

What ratio of Soundscape Center owners are running them with SS8s?

I would guess about 40% at this point.
