I would like to use the BIC America FH6-LCR speakers as L and R channels and my DV62CLR-S center channel 38Hz - 20kHz, how would they sound together?

I gotta say as a center channel- it is a great sounding speaker. However, not sure I'd use them as mains. Maybe if you use them as front surrounds? I guess it depends on your setup.

I am using fh6-lcr's as fronts and center for two years they are wonderful.Make sure your amp has enough to push them.Remember center channels make the best speakers.Also fyi you have to stand them up vertically for proper sound when using as surrounds,Google for technical reason.

I own the Polk T15 and BIC America DV62si speakers. The BIC speakers are bigger, heavier and have wider frequency response/higher sensitivity than the Polk T15's. I would recommend the BIC speakers over the Polks. I've seen the Polks on sale for for around fifty dollars, but have never seen a new pair of BIC America DV62si's offered for less than a hundred.I would also consider Micca's MB42 speakers. They sound similar to the Polk T15, but cost less.

Sorry. I did not answer about the center channel. I am using these speakers as surround, left and right speakers. But for my center I am not utilizing the outlet. The center channel is mainly used for dialog which I have do not have to. Two front left and right with surround left and right which will give you very good sound clarity, definition, no distortion and the whole spectrum. This all depends on your sound system and the front speakers you are using.

Yes you can do it. In a traditional LCR front speakers, that is if you have the Identical Left , Center and Right channel speakers, is the way to do it. If you can also, or maybe have the center speaker behind the screen, that would be the best set up. Now, if you have a center speaker that is different than the left and right, it would look strange but it should work fine. The ideal and right thing, is to have all the speakers from the exact same "family".

You could wire it that way running some in series and some in parallel if you know what you're doing, but getting good balance might be tricky. For example, you could run 4x6 in series with a 6.5 on each of the two front channels, the 6x9s on the back channels, then run the sub channel bridged with the 8s in series in parallel to the 12s in series. You'd probably be louder and sound better just ditching the 4x6s and 8s though and using the amp like it was meant to be used. I run 4 6.5s and 1 12 and its retardedly loud

I don't have any experience with using the BIC DV-62CLR's as main front speakers...my installation has one as a center channel in a 5.1 surround system. However, the DV-62CLR would probably serve as front speakers very well, with the dual 6.5" giving a better bass response than the BIC DV-62si speakers. There are also several reviews on audioreview.com praising the use of the DV-62CLR's as main front speakers.

Hi Major Tom. I am probably the wrong guy to answer. I called Klipch directly as I wanted to match the tone, etc of my mains that I have had for close to 20 years. I was leaning toward the rc's as I thought them to be the better speaker. The direction from Klipsch was the C series. I have the C20 center and matched with surrounds. I am quite happy now the I have them dialed in. If it matters, I am using a Marantz 7008. Good luck, JG

Hi David - I have my BIC DV-62CLRS as a center channel and BIC DV-62si as fronts and BIC DV-52si as rears. I like the extra bass punch I get with the DV-62si at the front but I also have an understanding wife that doesn't mind a big bookshelf speaker on stands! My DV-52si aren't taxed too hard as rear surrounds but during concert videos and some sporting events when the rear channels are most active, they do VERY well. I think the DV-52si would work well as front channels if you wanted to mount them on the wall and keep your floor clear. The BIC DV's (62si, 62CLRS, 52si) are great performers and excellent value...stay with the BIC's and you can't go wrong.

I am using Dynaudio Focus 380 as Main speaker and Focus 210 C as a Center. Rear Speaker ELAC BS 203.2. The set-up works great.

Ideally all front speakers, Left, Center, Right should be the same for optimal performance. Using the OWM3 as left/right main would work, and probably sound OK. I disagree with a previous comment on deficient bass response, as the very low frequencies would be handled by the sub/LFE channel with a powered sub. I would select "small speakers" on your 7.1 reciever for the front speakers when setting up your system- this will send all lower frequencies(>120hz) to the sub channel.

I have an 06 Tl. Depending on which factory head unit you have it may not work well with the ohm rating of this speaker. Also it would depend on if you have a factory unit or if you have made the switch to an aftermarket unit. As I have stated before these speakers are excellent for what they are designed for Marine use,water, moisture, shallow mounting depths etc. They do sound great! The depth will definitely work but the vehicle probably calls for a larger speaker. Again i would urge you to ask a local audio installation co.what size fits the vehicle. After you determine the Correct application size you will see that Polk has some great car speakers available for your use. If after all else considered you are determined to use this speaker, with audio enthusiasts where there is a will there is a way! My advice, correct fit, do your homework, aftermarket/factory? There are lots of variables. Factory has a center channel speaker and a built-in subwoofer with level adjustments for all. Would need to know what you are working with before i can help anymore, John

"This speaker can be used for center, front main, rear, and surround channels of any system". hence the l-c-r.That's what it means,left or center or right in the name.The in quotes are copied from their website.Frequency Response: 40Hz-23kHz .down to 40 is unusual for a center,and pretty low for a bookshelf speak on of left and right too.

I used this unit as a center channel only. No discernible difference noted when listening to Movie soundtracks in a "home theater" mode.I have left and right "8 inch driver units" in walls for front left and right. Have not used them (Micca) for rear application

I gradually updated all my surround sound speakers to BIC and I am happy with them. In addition to the DV-32CLR center speaker, I have the DV62si for my front side speakers, DV32 for my rear speakers and a V80 subwoofer. A lot depends on your room size. Mine is 15x30 but really only use half of this for the entertainment area. Good luck.

I got mine for a center channel with the 5650 as left and right and a sub. Sounds great. I almost would even have bought this one for my left and right. Very clear and crisp but definitely pair with an additional sub.

Yes you could but you might be better off just using the 62CLRS as your left, center, and right speakers. They can handle it. Just stand the speaker up on its end if you want it to have a bigger look for the left and right speakers.
