    The sound is tremendous. The only down side I have found is that it's a touch large--barely fits in my cabinet where my previous DEVON system did. It did fit, though, and provides great sound!

    I have this set up in my living room hooked up to my onkyo receiver and it works great as a center channel.

    This is my 3rd center channel speaker by Sony. Purchased this one to replace an old one in media room. The older models do have a larger speaker (dual 5" this model has dual 4") but the output wattage is still the same. Not sure why Sony doesn't make the surround speakers anymore to match this new design. Anyway, good price for a great speaker!

    I was surprised to hear that this center channel can go all the way down to 55Hz. While they’re not incredibly great with the highs it produces adequate sound for a center channel.
