[QUOTE="TaylorFade, post: 8174103, member: 618111"] Imaging or "upstage" tweeters are for stage height. As such... they should to be at ear level and crossed very high. They are JUST for height and "air" or spaciousness. But HF still contains stereo information. So, no... installing them in the center channel spot isn't the best idea. A full range driver is more suited to center channel duty. With all of that said though... if the other tweeters can cover the top end of the spectrum, are near ear level and/or you don't have a stage height problem... you don't HAVE to use them. But if you're set on using them and want to try them in the center channel spot, there is a pretty precise center to center distance they need to be apart to be utilized properly in that alignment. Mr. Patrick Bateman goes into mid boggling depth about it here...
