Customers are saying

Customers frequently mention the excellent sound quality and impressive bass response of the CS-9040 Center Channel Speaker. Many also find it easy to use and well-suited as a center channel speaker in a home theater setup. However, some customers note that its size is larger than anticipated, and a few mention that the price point may be relatively high for some consumers. The overall feedback suggests a powerful speaker with some trade-offs in size and cost.

      If I could suggest a couple things in hopes to better your experience. 1. If placed on furniture, bring the speaker to the front of the TV stand. 2. Set the CS-9040 to small and crossover at 70HZ. 3. If possible, place center CH ear height or tilt it up or down towards the listening position.

    I didn't like this center at all. I had it paired with the demand d9's and it just muffled the entire soundstage.
