Compare Speaker (Center) — Side-by-Side Specs
Center channel speakers are the anchor of your dialog intelligibility. Wide horizontal dispersion without comb-filtering lobes means voices stay clear across the full seating arc. Dual-woofer MTM designs can have narrow vertical dispersion — a problem if the speaker is above or below the screen at an angle. Sensitivity and tonality must be within a reasonable range of your L/R speakers to avoid imbalance on pans.
