Can I use this with the center channel Pioneer C22 speaker?

Yes. In a smaller room they would be fine for front speakers. I use them for my rears in the surround sound system.

Not really. You should stick with the 22 series at least for the front 3. The bs22 is designed for the c22. It would be ok, but not ideal, to use these for surrounds with the c22 though.

Even though the SP-BS21 are very capable speakers, the C22 seems to go better with its own Andrew Jones designed set, as pictured in http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/electronics/detail-page/sc_b008ncd2ei-04family_lg.jpg.If you are planning to have a 5.1 or 7.1 setup, I believe the BS21 are bookshelf (BS) type and don't have a mounting screw hole you may need for this type of arrangement (Mounting satellite speakers up at front and/or behind).

Doug,A center speaker will not work as a stereo pair. It is only one channel.Eric C

Not sure. If back of your receiver has output for center channel then yes. Great center speaker. I've paired mine with Sony bookshelf speakers too.

I use mine as a center channel speaker with mixed bag surround system. It would be best to use some type of amp.

I don't know for sure, but I think you can do this for any pair of speakers (Left/Right). Download the manual from Pioneer Electronics. That will tell you.

while this speaker is designed for center channel use it will work fine on right or left channel, as long as the receiver is the same ohms. also the design of this speaker is primarily used for dialogue. this is a great speaker, but I do recommend using the best speaker for the use that you intend, be it dialogue or surround.

Hi Henry,Yes, you can definitely hook it up to your Sony AV Receiver as a Center Channel. I did the same thing. I was absolutely amazed at the detail from the Bose Acoustimas. I have a decent buck invested in my AV setup and was used to larger speakers but I could not believe my ears! I've had Sony speakers now on Yamaha but my center is and will remain An Acoustimass!

To clarify, you want to replace your center channel speaker with the Primus PC351?

I have 62's as my surrounds, so I cannot say for certain. That said, the center channel is an excellent speaker, comparing favorably to my much more expensive polk CS 350. I suspect they have the same tweeter, which is the most important factor in speaker matching. They are close enough where you could probably only detect the difference with an analyzer.

I don't see why it should not if your Pioneer has an appropriate output port.

The center speaker of this unit can be used for the center channel but then the remaining speakers would be useless unless they are connected to other channels of your system.

You have 5 separate channels on the back of the speaker. You could only connect the center channel but it would be a waste of the other speakers enclosed. There are much better choices if you are only looking for a center channel speaker.

A center preout would be needed to officially connect to tv input or soundbar input. Sadly, one is not provided by Pioneer. A previous model without hdmi inputs had this but no longer. Output impedance is between 6 ohm to 16 ohms. Roger

Interesting scenario. The only I can think of is to split the connection since you probably only have one center channel speaker output on your receiver. The other thing you can do is use your rear center channel connection if your receiver has it.

Yes, you can, for example, use a very high quality mono amp for the most important channel, the center, leaving more power for the other channels. All channels have pre out availability. The perfect system would use a 3 channel (example Bryston) amp for L-C-R and have all the entire receiver's power for the remaining channels. I have done this and it is fabulous. Barry
