Center Speaker
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good speaker for the price. The only dislike I have is that it is too tall; I wish they made more center speakers that aren't as tall. This one doesn't fit on my mantel where I had planned on putting it.

Sony Center Speaker
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fits perfectly below my cabinet. Good sound quality but would prefer a longer unit that spreads out the speakers more. Still a reasonable center speaker for the cost.

good
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These sonys are under rated. The bookshelves are great as is the center. The center should be a little smaller, but it looks ok.

Clean pure vocals
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This center channel provides clean crisp vocals without distortion. I am driving it with a Sony amp. It is well built and for the price it would be hard to beat.

Clean Sound
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The speaker has very good, clean sound. It was easy to connect to the receiver I purchased. I did return the speaker and exchange for the Polk Signature center channel, which is not as tall. The reason being is that the Polk speaker integrate better into my surroundings and to me is more substantial in appearance.
