Product Description

Product Description
The step-up MC300 is a two-way speaker with two 4 drivers and a silk dome tweeter. Great performance for small to mid-sized rooms and a great price.

A compact but powerful main speaker, the Cambridge SoundWorks' Newton MC300 uses two 4-inch midrange drivers and a 1-inch reinforced silk dome tweeter -- the same array found in their high-end Newton T300 Tower speaker. In fact, the MC300 is the perfect center channel for the T300 Towers. But it is more than just a center channel. Its MTM (Midrange-Tweeter-Midrange) design produces a robust, wide-range, well-dispersed output with outstanding musical accuracy. The MTM array also makes the MC300 ideal for use in a home theater system because it can act as a left main, center and right main speaker -- resulting in smooth, seamless transitions across the home theater's soundstage.

Slate, also available in White.

5.0 out of 5 stars MC300, February 8, 2008

By	Leukoplast - See all my reviews

You really can't do any better for the price. The MC300 is a true audiophile speaker, and has been reviewed and given great scores by various audiophile websites/magazines. I own 3 of these in a MCM arrangement (Main/Center/Main) the sound quality is phenomenal and truly gives you sound as your supposed to hear it. The only downside would be that they cant really dish out the bass, but get yourself a good sub and you will have everything covered. I have done numerous speaker demos which include various speakers from B&W and Paradigm, and they didn't even have a chance against these. And you pay 20x's less than if you were to buy one of those other 'high end' brands.

If you in the market for a satellite surround system, dont want to break the bank but want really awesome sound that's full, clear and crisp. Get the MC300's. You will NOT find a better satellite speaker system on the market, I guarantee that.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for music as well as movies, December 14, 2006

By	Jeremy D. Burman (Greenville, SC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I own three of these speakers and use them as the front left, right, and center for my home theater. These are really terrific speakers, and can be aquired at a reasonable price. I have been listening to these for over a year now, and they are fully broken in. I listen to a lot of music with them including Super Audio CD's, as well as watch TV and movies. These have great range and responsiveness as well as a depth of tone that is very satisfying.
I had really become accustomed to these, but when I swapped in an inexpensive pair of bookshelf speakers for the L & R channels (to test out before installing in another room), suddenly it sounded like a whole layer of aural richness had been stripped away and I could hardly wait to get the MC300's hooked back up!

4.0 out of 5 stars Other speakers don't compare, November 7, 2002

By	"laureen1030" (Dorchester, MA) - See all my reviews

These speakers image well. I'm impressed with the amazing soundstage and crisp tonal balance. I can't compare these to anything else at this price.
