How to add a center speaker to my amplifier?

I've got two tower speakers, and one subwoofer and my amp already runs out of space cuz its old school. I've been told I can get some box at radio shack its sorta like an adapter, and can fit as many speakers as I want. But unfortunatetly Ive forgot what those are called, does anyone has an idea? thanks

Re: How to add a center speaker to my amplifier?

You could do that but whats the point ? First center channel speakers are not needed for stereo music, and not even really needed for surround sound unless the main speakers are far apart due to speaker placement limitations. 

As long as you have your main left and right speakers placed around 7 ft apart and not more than 10 ft apart, you don't need a center and your fine.

I think the secure screw down cable where originally used in labs by technicians and scientists doing testing on HDMI perimeters some of those cables may have made it into the consumer market....but the cable without screws are your standard consumer product...also it depends on your phone and what type of connections it has but it may be a mini type D HDMI cable to HDMi A which is your standard HDMI jack...
