CENTER CHANNEL??? Help and Advise!

Hello All. I have a 2016 2SS MT Vert.

I currently have installed:


Hertz Mille Pro components in front
Hertz Mille Pro Coax in rear
Alpine PDX-F6
Alpine PDX-M12
Nav-TV GM650
Audison Bit one
Alpine 10" Type R in custom made side enclosure (Drivers Side)


I am going to take the Audison Bit one out of the car and replace it with a DSR1 DSP. And I will be changing the Sub to a Hertz Mille Legend.


I want to get rid of the center channel but I don't want to lose the voice prompts. Anybody have any luck with this?


The other option is add a small micro amp and change the center channel speaker out. So I am also interested in what speakers others have fit in there??

I didn't think that you lose anything with the NavTV unit....

Have you deleted your centre channel with the NavTV?

Off topic - Based off of the background in the pics, I'm guessing a stereo shop built the enclosure, yes? Do you know the internal volume? This is the route I would like to take.

It is very small. Like .6/.7 cu.ft. Works great though with 1200w going into that type r. I should have the Mille legend in there pretty soon. Like next week. Local audio shop did the box the guy there is very good. Be aware the tolerance with top is very tight. Box needs to be very secure or damage can occur. Ask me how I know.......

you don't lose anything with the NavTV, prompts and commands will be sent to other speakers.
The center channel throws the system off re: imaging, IMO, sounds better without it. we never installed a center channel when we set up my system. Very similar hi-fi SQ build

Good to know! I was led to believe it needed to stay or sum through a DSP. Just haven't done much with it yet since it was all installed. I want it GONE for those very reasons! Thanks for the info! I may end up in your area in July. If I do I would like to hear your set up! must sound amazing with the semi active front stage. I want to go active as well but I will need another amp for that. Maybe move the Mille Pro components to the rear and put legends up front.

Hit me up, happy to let you hear it anytime. Yes, took a while to get the system to where I love it top up and top down. The front stage is great, second setup I have run like this , and to be honest, I really cant tell the difference between running the tweet -midrange fully active vs quasi-active.

If that is for me, I will try to take some pics of the new arrangement. I have three amplifiers, a Hertz H8, two BatCaps, arranged in a tight configuration
