Customers are saying

Customers value the sound quality and affordable price of the Core Series 4" 2-Way Center-Channel Speaker. Many also appreciate its convenient size and ease of setup, while some find the bass response particularly impressive. However, a few customers noted that the speaker might lack power for larger rooms and that the high frequencies could be improved.

    This center speaker is integral to a nice 5.1.2 Sony surround sound that completes the home theater package. When I played the Dolby Atmos sound check with the whole system (including ceiling speakers) it gave me goosebumps!

    I replaced a Bose bookshelf speaker that I was using for a center channel. The difference was huge going to a true center channel. The dialogue is perfect, no more turning up the receiver to hear the voices and then turn down when the action picks up.
