Product Description

Product Description
The Cambridge SoundWorks' MC500 is a very high-output speaker whose component drivers match those in our top-of-the-line T500 Tower speaker. It's ideal for use as a center speaker in a home theater system that includes T500s -- or any system that requires high output and high accuracy. The MC500's midrange and high-frequency drivers share a common mounting platform, configured for horizontal enclosure placement (typical of center channels). The mid/high frequency platform may also be shifted 90 degrees, allowing vertical placement, so the MC500 can be used as a main speaker.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bottom Line Is Sound Quality, Simply Amazing, but Pricey, February 1, 2006

By	Chicago "Chicago" (Chicago) - See all my reviews

After researching sound sytems for nearly 2 years I decided to go with the MC500 as my L/C/R speaker system along with the P1000, S300's and an MC300 as a center rear speaker. Fits nicely with my 50" plasma. Perfect for THX and DTS soundtracks. Music sounds very crisp and full, without the speakers ever sounding like they are being stressed.

Downside, very bulky and heavy. Used as a center it sits nearly 10 inches high. Not many entertainment centers will hold this size speaker. Price, it's an investment $$$.

I still found that it was the best price compared to the other top of the line systems out there. Despite the size and cost, the sound quality eclipses its rivals still making this a perfect 10!!!!

Check out there ebay store everything is near 1/2 off. Make it an even better value...

4.0 out of 5 stars great speakers, November 11, 2002

By A Customer

I am very happy with my Cambridge Soundworks MC500s. I've bought from Cambridge before and you can never go wrong with their speakers. I upgraded my current home theater set-up with the MC500s and couldn't be happier with the sound.

4.0 out of 5 stars big performance, November 11, 2002

By A Customer

This speaker is ultra-compact, but it sure does offer big performance. I used the keyhole slots on the back to mount them in my family room wall, and you'd never even realize they were there. Friends and family are blown away by the performance.
