I realize that dialog in the center channel is the standard, but am I the only one that prefers having the dialog come out of the L & R speakers? Maybe it's because that's what I'm used to (I don't mix film), but dialog in the Center always seems a little disjointed to me. For a while, I thought it was because any sort of home environment with surround typically has the C above or below the image, so the vertical placement is off. But I get the same feeling (though to a lesser degree) in theaters.
