This is a good center channel speaker for a room that is average in size. The sound is amazing. Good starter speaker for those just getting in to surround.

I am very happy with this speaker for a center of my two klipsch floor standing speaker. They obviously work very well together and look great too. Light in weight but not in punch!

This is a great all around product. Klipsch did a great job with the visual design where the speaker cones are a copper color. I actually prefer to leave the grill off just so I can see the cones. The sound quality is classic Klipsch and is amazing for the price with dedicated woofers in a sealed enclosure and a center horn style tweeter that transfers sound at all angles in the room. Overall it outputs a very crisp and responsive sound and as most of the voices in a 5.1 or 7.1 setup comes from the center channel it really helps to have a speaker that sounds this good. A great addition to my stereo.

The center channel speaker adds nice dimension. Crisp and full body sound with a a really beautiful cooper look if you can run them with the speaker covers off.

Fantastic Sound at a Reasonable Price

This is a fantastic center channel speaker that won't break the bank. I originally had a Polk Audio CS10 center channel speaker which was decent enough, but the difference in sound was clear upon hook-up. The dialogue is clear and crisp, and there's a lot more detail that you can pick up with it that the smaller CS10 didn't. This ended up being a bit of a gateway speaker for me, because after hearing the difference I ended up upgrading all my other speakers in my system too.
For reference, I am using this with a Denon X2200 receiver and a 5.1.2 setup.

I have a 5.1 system that I had a bose center channel and a polk center channel attached to it previously. The center channel is responsible for conveying the dialogue in movies/shows. This sounded awful on both those other center channels, making me have to rearrange settings so that dialogue would also come out of the left and right channels. Using the old center channels, voices sounded like they were in a can and were completely drowned out by the sounds coming from the other speakers. Not anymore, now I am listening to movies how they were intended. Definitely would recommend.

Excellent quality. Purchased on sale, making it an even better value. Would be difficult, if not impossible to purchase this kind of sound for less.

This brand is always a winner, the downfall on this one is the inflated cost.....hopefully its a case of getting what you pay for as per usual?? Though a break in the cost would be much appreciated especially when you spend hundreds with the same store already....

Thsi speaker sounds nice, but at its original price its a bit overpriced and there are other options. But if you see it on a good deal, go for it.
It has nice sound, not great but it sure does its job. Its a big speaker so make sure you have the space for it.

For the money great sound at normal an loud. At very high volumes they thin out a bit and get pesky.
Recommend for the price point!

Brings Balance

To put this in perspective ... in running this center channel off of a 7.1 Sony Reciever. I have Klipsch RF-82 towers in front, Klipsch Synergy Quintet III surround speakers and a BIC America 12" Sub. What I was noticing was that the front towers overpowered my center channel. Listening to any heavy action movie (Tranformers, Dark Knight, Pirated of the Carribean) you would lose the dialog. This center channel fixed that problem completely. The sound stage is perfectly balanced to my liking with minimal adjustment.

I'm new to this and have had a pioneer receiver and speaker from a box set for 9 years or so. I first bought this center speaker by itself and immediately noticed the difference. I originally went to BB to get a POLK set, but decided against it. three weeks went by and I grabbed the Klipsch 26 floor speakers. Had too, the center speaker just sounded that good and I figured the floor speakers would be a vast improvement as well. I was right.
