I'm returning mine largely because it has zero adjustability. The sound is far too bright. It does have lots of power and clarity, though. As far as the center channel, mine has some output, but not terribly noticeable. The electronics do a good job of summing center channel signals and blending it with the left and right. I think the soundstaging / imaging is very good. I'll just get the 7UP BMW version so that I can tune it. The other thing that I don't like is that it has a variable high pass filter on the sub channels that is designed to limit excursion of low bass at high levels. You can definitely hear the drop off in the low bass at high levels. I'm sure this is on purpose to prevent overdriving the stock subs.

I decided to return mine too for the same reason as yours - no adjustability. For low output on the center channel, I was wrong, the amp was actually on "Red Light" tune which is not for OEM speakers. After switching tune back to "Green Light", the sound became very good. However, this tune has some noise problem, the loudness of background noise is unacceptable to me. I tried to tune it a bit, but it was not recognized by the tuning software that can be used for Up 7BMW. So I decided to return it.
