Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Klipsch Synergy Series C-1 center channel speaker delivers high-performance quality at an affordable price. This mind-bending performer reveals all the audio detail and dynamics necessary for a gripping home theater experience. Available in a black finish with titanium accents, the C-1 offers two different contemporary looks: with its grille on, the elegant C-1 blends with any home décor; with the grille off, it makes an aggressive, powerful performance statement.

The C-1 center channel speaker delivers a thrilling performance for all audiophiles. For deep, clear bass, it features dual 4" woofers. The 0.75" aluminum-dome tweeter is coupled to an exclusive square Tractrix(R) Horn, which increases sensitivity and minimizes room interactions that can blur high end detail. The C-1 lets listeners hear everything from the faintest whisper to the loudest roar with complete clarity. It’s also timbre-matched to the entire range of Synergy speakers, for consistent sound throughout the room.

Product Description

The Klipsch Synergy C-1 center channel speaker delivers subtle and thrilling performances by employing dual 4" magnetically shielded, IMG woofers and a 0.75" magnetically shielded, aluminum dome tweeter coupled to an exclusive square Tractrix(R) Horn, which increases sensitivity and minimizes room interactions that blur sonic detail. The C-1 has the panache that allows listeners to hear everything from the faintest whisper to the loudest roar with complete clarity. It is also timbre-matched to the entire range of Synergy speakers. Available in a black finish with titanium accents, the contemporary look of the C-1 is two-fold. With its grille on, the C-1 offers a sense of elegance that nicely blends in with your home décor, but take the grille off and you get an aggressive and powerful statement that exudes extreme performance.

There are 3 sizes for this speaker, but I'm glad I bought the smaller size. I have a hearing comprehension deficiency and wear hearing aids. I had tried several, including Bose, before I purchased the Cerwin Vega center speaker that I used for a number of years. None that I listened to before had the clarity that I find in the Klipsch. Inasmuch as the center channel speaker is aimed at voice transmission primarily, that is a big plus. There was no difficulty in installing it. I did have to balance the system (mine is 2 front speakers, center speaker and a 12" sub) to get all speakers at the same volume level, but that was done automatically by my Sony receiver, and the "wall of sound" was great. Also, I could understand the voice transmissions better than ever. Others may find one of the other sizes to be more satisfactory, but I don't think they'll go wrong with Klipsch.

If you want good sound especially when watching movies you must have a center speaker. This one was the right size and of good enough quality to match the rest of my system. Before we had only left, right, and a sub woofer. So much sound is engineered to come from the center, like dialogue, that without that speaker you are missing a lot and sometimes can't make out what people are saying. That leads to turning up the sound and then when a big chase scene or shoot-em-up comes along you get blasted out of the room. A center channel speaker takes care of the problem and the quality of this Klipsh is excellent especially when you consider its modest price. I am very happy with my purchase.

This is the perfect speaker for me and my system! You always here the old guys say "If I'd known I was going to live this long I would have taken better care of my teeth". In my case I wish for younger ears. My system consisted of Klipsch KLF-20 main's and a Klipsch KV-1 center speaker. Although the KV-1 is a good speaker I was having trouble hearing voices on TV and movies. This speaker is just what I needed. The voice is clear and sharp and plays nice with the large main speakers.
