    What a difference over my old center channel speaker. Should have bought this years ago. Noticed a huge difference in quality right out of the box.

    Wow! This speaker packs a punch. It is discrete under my TV but provides impressive sound in both volume and quality.

    The speaker sounded ok but just didnt match with the rest of my system. I returned it to upgrade. I have the r-820f floor speakers which over-powered the center.

    Lovely center channel for a surround sound speaker set up. I’m kind of new to learning about surround sound and the importance of a center speaker. From what I learned from searching and watching the speaker in motion, it’s highly important for spoken dialogue in media (tv, movies, games, etc.). This speaker works really well for that.

    My review also includes the following which was part of the package: Klipsch R-600F Klipsch R-101SW Klipsch R-30C Klipsch R-40SA Klipsch R-50M Many other reviews mentioned gaming, music, and film; all of which I can attest to. I played 24-bit FLAC files and the sound is breathtaking. Of course, 320cbr sound great, too, but the punch and depth from those more robust files is seriously taken advantage of with a setup like this. The only thing audio-wise that I didn't get a chance to try out was my turntable setup. But I have no doubts it will be amazing once I get the chance to move everything into place. When it comes to film, the most recent 4K Dolby Atmos/Vision releases I have sounded superb. My other sound setup is a DT Studio Slim and I absolutely love it, especially as it is such a small/easy to hide system. The Studio Slim has performed amazingly well and is something I have been more than happy with, but this receiver in conjunction with these speakers? OMG, night and day. I can't recommend these speakers enough, brilliant combination and beyond worth the investment!

    Works great as a center front speaker with my setup, conversations are crystal clear compared to the LG sound bar I was using before.
