What our customer's say!

"crisp sound ", Perfect crisp sound that you would want from a center speaker. Don't over power it though (or any speaker)

"AMAZING!!!", I bought this speaker to replace the cube center speaker that came with my sony surround reciever. I hooked it up and i loved what i heard. Clear crisp amazing dialogues, i can totally tell the difference right away. I think the price is reasonable and the product you get is great.

"Sony Center speaker - Good sound Small price", Just finished installing a new 5.1 home theater / music system in my living room using this center speaker, the Sony BB-1000 small bookshelf speakers for the left / right front and surrounds, and the Sony 12 inch , 200 watt subwoofer. This whole shebang cost $360 here on Amazon.com... It's a bargain for very good sound.

This CN-5000 is perfectly matched to the B-1000's. I bet it would sound just as good with the larger bookshelf models or even the floor standing speakers in this Sony product line.

I used to be an audio tweak. Bought and sold very expensive speakers that were made by boutique shops. I still have a "serious" stereo system in another room, I listen to LP records on that stereo. In comparison, this Sony system is "modern". The higher octaves are forward and bright. The mid-range is very smooth. The bass is somewhat amorphous. You know, it sounds like a sound system in a typical club. JBL style bright, loud, punchy. Gets you attention. That's not a bad thing when your $360 sound system is primarily to be used for watching action DVD's. Ooooo, I want to hear all those explosions in Ironman again!

"Awesome Sound", Per a friend who happens to have a better ear for sound, pitch & tones. He listened to my system and gave the approval of it producing good sound. I've received other compliments from others as well. Mostly they are in disbelief like, "that little box is pushing all that sound", and "it sounds so crisp." I'm content with my purchase. Get one of these, you won't regret it.

"Great addition to my home theater ", I have the Sony STRD510 receiver and 5.1 speaker setup and this center channel is perfect.

Read this reviews before You buy...

"Nice Speaker", This is my first center channel speaker. It certainly adds to the quality of sound when watching 5.1 movies, compared to stereo. This speaker seems well constructed and sounds good (I'm hardly an audiophile, but have been a musician most of my life).

"Great Value And impressive value!", I own a Htib with tiny satalite speakers and a big subwoofer. I really liked the features and looks of my home theater system but I must admit that it was a bit of a strain listening to conversations on broadcasts and dvds. Rather than start from scratch I replaced my center speaker with this and the left and right speakers with the sony ssf-5000 floor speakers.

Now its amazing the how great movies and broadcast are with this speaker especially since I paired it with the floor speakers!

I was afraid it wouldn't be good quality or poor audio since I didn't audition it before buying, but I am very pleased and since owning I've compared center speakers at best buy and circuit city and see how this stacks up well in size and craftmenship to speakers that cost alot more money.

"Good sounding speaker.", Sony has value for the buck when it comes to their entry level speakers.

I started with the Onkyo TX-SR 705 to put together a nice Surround Sound System, then added the Sony SB3000 front - SB1000 rear, SA-W2500 Sub and the SSC-N5000 and have a nice system for an apartment.

The system is more than I need but it does sound nice and I didn`t break the bank, I would not hesitate to reccomend the SB1000 for front speakers for those on a tight budget as they were great with a 10 year old RCA surround sound amp I replaced.

All of the Sony speakers in this series are a bargain for those in apartments where ... really using ... more expensive speakers could get you evicted save the extra bucks for a box of Dots to eat with your movie!

Great value!

"CLEAR AND CRISP", The Sony SSC-N5000 center channel speaker (which I mounted on top of my television with two strips of Velcro) is definitely loud and clear enough to do its main job, which is to deliver dialogue. No screaming highs and no thunderous bass, but that's not what this speaker is for. The frequency response is good, though, and overall this is a very nice speaker. Well-constructed and heavy. This speaker matches all the other Sony speakers in my system. I hope this review helps you.
