from Magnolia Hi Fi Summary:
Bought this to go with my Boston VR3 fronts, and Boston Bravo surrounds. Keeping the unique Boston sound all around was a major factor in my purchase. The mid driver and the VR HO tweeter do almost all the work in this center-so even though it has 2 bass driver's you don't notice much from them. It would have been better to have 2 tweeter's and/or 2 mid's with 1 bass driver. BUT, the mid and tweeter do an excellent job. The crossover is first rate with no wash out between the two. The high notes come out the tweeter, and the mid's through the mid. It also does an exceptional job with music-very detailed. In addition to Aerosmith and Clint Black, I like Andy Williams and Tony Bennett. The vocal's are excellent through this thing.
With subwoofer's providing most of the bass nowaday's, I just wish Boston would expand on the # of tweeter's and mid driver's they put in each speaker.But, it does a very good job indeed. I'm alway's amazed at the sound quality that Boston's put out with even one speaker, like in my Receptor Radio. This center is well worth the money, especially if you like the Boston Sound. Clear and Bright is especially what you want in a center speaker. Strengths:
3 way center. As clear vocal's as I've ever heard in an under $500 center. Weaknesses:
Comes in any color you want-as long as it's black. I would prefer to get it in cherry to match my VR3 front's.Same complaint with their sub's. They actually make a cherry center that sell's for $650, but it is an old 2 way speaker design with no mid driver at all and the old tweeter. Similar Products Used:
This replaced a 6 week old $200 Sony center channel that was worthless.
