HTM72 S3 is the most compact center channel speaker in the 700 Series. It features a Carbon Dome tweeter and twin Continuum cone Mid/Bass drivers. It’s the perfect partner for a home theatre system based around the 704 S3, 706 S3 or 707 S3.
The 706 S3 is an outstanding bookshelf speaker for use in larger spaces. Thanks to its decoupled Carbon Dome tweeter and carefully upgraded crossover, it provides exceptional detail and insight into your music, while its substantial 6.5in Continuum Cone bass/midrange drive unit provides ample scale and extension. Like its 705 S3 sibling, it performs at its best on the optional FS-700 S3 stand.
The Definitive Technology Dymension DM10 Center Channel Speaker features two 5.25" midrange woofers with composite polymer cones to produce better midrange detail, a 1" custom aluminum oxide tweeter for explicit voice, and an integrated 9” passive radiator for a big bass impact. Pair this speaker with the DM40 slim tower speakers and DM95 on-wall speakers (sold separately) to build an ultimate surround setup and deliver dynamic sound through it. The transparent black cloth grille wrapping this center speaker allows it to disappear virtually in dim room lights, so you can focus on the movie, not your speakers. Be it onscreen movie drama, melodies of your favorite singers, or hearing the sonic details while gaming, this high-performing speaker envelops you from every angle and transports you inside every scene and song. The consistent sound across Definitive Technology gives you the flexibility to mix and match Dymension, Dymension CI, and Mythos speakers, which can be voice-matched to design a complete home system.
The third generation of Klipsch's award-winning premium Reference Premiere Series features new, larger proprietary Tractrix horn technology to improve high-frequency response and extension, while enhancing imaging and dynamics.

B&W center channel
While I dont consider myself an audiophile I did notice the variety of music this speaker can handle without causing fatigue on my ears. My wife is also sensitive to higher range frequency. A lot of speakers cause her fatigue and sound harsh. This model does not do that. If you want a speaker that can handle anything from watching movies to listening to jazz hip hop or even EDM or rock to playing video games, this is a great speaker to choose. I paired this with the 703S3 B&W. Mind you, a good speaker is only half the battle. The type of receiver you choose is important too.
