Decent buy

It is good for an average center speaker
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am always a fan for Sony audio products, especially that my first one was a five piece model in 1993 that was a Japan made one. I have also purchased a 7.2 receiver in 2007 that I am enjoying till today (without the advanced tech elements of course). I have also several Sony speakers, including center ones and front ones. The reason I provided 3 starts to this speaker is that I had the chance to compare its performance to other similar brands, and found it is less competitive to the other ones, even to an old model that I still have till today. That's why I returned back.
