I was toying around with the idea of using a set of components I have to make a center channel for my home theater.
The speakers I plan to use are the Infinity Kappa Perfect 500’s with the 300m add on mid range.
This gives me (2)5.25s, (2)3.5s, and (2)tweets. I will orient the large mids outside, then the small mids, then the tweets in center.

The speakers come with 3way passives and the idea is to run the (2) sets in series;
pos from amp into ‘+in’ on x-over 1, ‘-in’ of x-over 1 to ‘+in’ on x-over 2, ‘-in’ on x-over 2 to neg from amp. In theory this will present an 8ohm load to my HT amp.
Anything wrong with this idea? I didn’t find much info about running component speakers in series…but I think it would be fine.
Let me know what you think…and please don’t advise me to buy this or that…the idea is to use the speakers I already own.
Thanks!
