    ...I have this mated with a Sony STRDH590 5.2 Channel Surround Sound Home Theater 4K HDR AV Receiver, Sony - Core Series 5" 3-Way Bookshelf Speakers, and a Sony - Core Series 10" 115W Active Subwoofer...not a super high end system, but for the money I think it sounds great...

These Sony core series speakers pack a punch without losing clarity and crisp sound. 2 thumbs up!!

    Adds the missing piece to most systems

    The sound quality that comes out of this box is amazing. I knew a center channel would make a difference in watching TV shows and movies, but I didn't think it would be that much of a difference. My only complaint is that the physical size of the speaker is a little larger than I hoped for, but that's just my personal preference based on my setup. Other people may have enough room in their stand for it to sit easier...

    grabbed this speaker to round out my 5.1 sound system, made listening ton conversations in movies much easier. Now I don't have to adjust the volume every scene. Will be replacing my other 4 speakers with the rest of the core series

    Have this connected to my receiver along with two Sony bookshelf speakers and a sub. The turntable sounds great and when I run the TV through the system it's not quite surround sound but it sure is satisfying.

    I never realized center speakers were specially designed for that channel until advised by Best Buy...so I purchased this one for my new 5.1 channel receiver. I had been using just an ordinary speaker I had around the house, although a nice one. I really feel it made a difference in the quality of the sound I heard. I think this is a great speaker for the price. I would recommend it.

    Coming from a sound bar to this is like someone cupping your ears and then letting go! So crisp. I’ve never heard dialogue so clearly in my life. I have the whole ecosystem of these Sony speakers and it’s amazing

    Great center

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I was stuck between this center and Polk. I finally got to a magnolia at best buy and tested them both out. As I suspected Sony was untouchable and a bit smaller in size. Also brought this open box so bonus n the savings.

    Great for dialog

    This center speaker is great at bringing out dialog crisply even at low volume. On sale it is a quite a bargain. My only negative is that it is a bit larger than I would have preferred.
