    Amazing how much clearer vocals are from regular TV broadcasts with this center speaker. Play a DVD or cable show and you can understand every word without turning up the sound.

    I was looking for a center channel speaker that delivered superb clarity and realism to my television watching experience. Only after listening to just about every speaker in the Best Buy listening room, did I select the Bowers & Wilkins - 700 Series 2 Dual 5" 2-Way Center-Channel Speaker. It sounds even better in my living room than the Magnolia listening room.

    This speaker really boosted our system. It is so clear for speaking parts of movies/shows but also beautiful fort music when paired up with the matching front speakers. LOVE it!

    Solid Center Channel Choice for the money

    I have a fairly large space but I felt this size center channel worked better than the larger one. I like how this sits on a 28" stand in front of my TV. The sound quality and voices are very good and while I really wanted to try the more expensive one, the space it requires was just too much. I think this is a great center channel for the price. I paired it with two Bowers and Wilkins 700 series tower speakers.

    After auditioning several different higher end components I chose the B&W for it's ability to convey a realistic sound stage, impressive volume for such small drivers (compared to my old center), and incredible sound quality. I have ended up with additional B&W products with the same characteristics.

    Very nice clean sounding center channel. Originally was going to build a Bowers 700 system slowly but eventually returned this center and built a definitive system for less than half the cost. Second to none sound but ended up being a little too pricey for my comfort level.

    A very nice center channel. It's not too large where it becomes the focal point. Voices sound clear and direct. This speaker is a great size for a mixed-use living space

    This center speaker delivers crisp voice reproduction and rich base notes. It is great that the base can be adjusted when it is too overpowering in a movie or the music.

    First off it looks nice in gloss black. The voices are pretty well rounded in the mids and tweeter picks up percussive syllables at lower volumes.

    If you are looking for a perfect center channel that doesn’t call for taking out a second mortgage on your house, this is it. The sound and the clarity couldn’t be better. If you enjoy watching movies in surround sound settings this will blow you away. Our front side speakers are Definitive Tech 8040’s. We watched WW84 last night on our new Sony 77” A9G. Covid or not, who needs to go to movie theaters anymore was my wife’s response. So you want an amazing center channel? Get this because it will thrill you! The BestBuy folks were amazing in setting it all up for us. Go BestBuy.

    Outstanding Center Channel Speaker

    I've had a chance to listen to the Bowers & Wilkins HTM72 S2 Center Channel speaker for just under two months now & I have to say that this is easily the best center channel speaker I've ever owned. The clarity & accuracy of dialogue & conversations when watching a movie is unmatched, and listening to sports commentary when watching a ball game is also significantly improved. The B&W HTM72 S2 is the perfect addition / upgrade to my surround sound speaker system.
