Great center channel speaker!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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!

Impressive sound for the price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.
