Should I NOT use my best speakers?

[[e-mail]]

Hello all,



For now I want to use the speakers that I currently own for my LCR in a dedicate home theater setup. I have a pair of Ascend Sierra 1s, and I have some 6-1/2" 2-Way In-Ceiling Speakers from Sonance, which I would build boxes for. I also have 4 Sonance speakers in the ceiling and 2 on the back wall.



Ideally, I would have three Sierra 1's, but I don't for now, so I'm wondering if I'm better off



1) skipping the Sierra 1s entirely and using 3 Sonance across the front (built into boxes)



2) use Sierra 1's as front left and right with a Sonance as the center (this is my favorite option, but will it sound bad with the LR overpowering the center?)



3) Use Sonance as left and right, with one Sierra 1 in the center (not my favorite option, since then I can't use the pair elsewhere)

Thank you



I did not find the right solution from the internet
