I recently bought the Sony core series R/L floor speakers, center speaker, subwoofer, and rear bookshelf speakers.
The center speaker is the worst part of the system and I really wish I would’ve went with another center speaker for a little bit more. I have the gain maxed out and have adjusted the settings on my receiver and it just doesn’t produce like I want it to. Would not recommend this speaker!

I was used to a home theater and when ours went out I thought maybe I could downsize it just a front speaker and of course you don't get the same sound so I returned it for a big system

I bought this and a Polk to compare and thought the Polk was more lifelike.
