Review 4 of 10
Price Paid:
$149.00
from Best Buy Summary: I got this speaker because someone gave me a $100 Best Buy Gift Card. So, for $60 including tax, I got the center speaker upgraded.
I wasn't as impressed with everyone else here. I am still tuning the center speaker. It is a little harsh, and maybe I can get that tuned out. However, the speaker sounds good overall, I think I just don't have it tuned with the rest of my system well.
I also have a YST-800 (I LOVE IT) and I am thinking about the 100 tower speakers to go along with the system. Since I'll probably order them online, rather than pay BB's prices I will wait until after Christmas to avoid the shipping hassles of having to be at the house when they come by, etc...
I'll post a review of it once it is paired with these speakers.
Overall, it sounds good and is a great buy for the money.
One tip, compared to my old center speaker I assumed this should be set as a "LRG" speaker on my surround sound. After reading the manual, this is not so. That has already helped the harshness by making it a "SML" speaker on the surround.
Strengths: Good price, crisp and clean Weaknesses: Overwhelms the OEM Yamahas that came with my HTIB system (5440 and NSP-220 speakers) - Also, "manual" doesn't describe the tweeter attenuator knob worth a darn. Similar Products Used: Yamaha HTIB center speaker
