Great speakers, especially on sale
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Picked these up as upgrades to my home theater. The online reviews/critiques for these are rather positive, especially considering the price point. Quality seems to be great and they sound awesome. The center speaker is a little bulky, about the size of a receiver. Make sure there is space on the shelf for it.

Center channel best bang for the buck
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sony Center Channel is a much improved over center channel from a Home Theater in a box. Handles all the dialog perfectly. Center is paired with the Sony 5” Core series bookshelf speakers and the Sony Sub. It is the driver for my Home Theater. Perfect for person who doesn’t want to spend a fortune.

Good Speaker
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good range for base and treble. Nothing wrong with the speaker but I had a tough time adjusting it to my Sony receiver. Had to add it electronically to the receiver before it would work.

Amazing sound and value
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound quality is amazing. My amplifier and bookshelf speakers complement one another so well. Only downside is that some content isnt supported for three speakers and unsure of anyway to combine the channels.

Sony Center Speaker
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I recently purchased a Sony Center Speaker to complete my surround system which was all purchased at Best Buy. The speaker works perfect and was easy to install. It was streamlined enough that it integrated easily with my other components. The sales rep recommended this speaker and I could not be happier.

Wow
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This replaced our old center speaker, and wow, the sound on this guy is amazing! It almost drowns out our old tower speakers, but some adjustments in our Sony receiver was able to make the compensation. The only thing that erks me a little is the big boxy size of the center. Makes it hard to place for some setups.

Center Speaker
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and a great addition to my surround sound system. Only complaint is it seems to overpower sound from my tower speakers when sitting directly in front but I’m sure that’s just an easy adjustment on receiver settings. Again, at Black Friday prices this one couldn’t be passed up!
