🎧 Yamaha NS-C210BL: Powerful Black Center Channel Speaker for Immersive Audio Experience Review

Small enough to fit under the TV in tight spaces. It sounds very clear and is perfect for dialogue without being hissing or harsh. I had another center channel that cost almost 3 times as much and this is much better as it doesn't tire the ear. If you don't like harsh highs but want to hear dialogue clearly, try this before spending more money on something else. on a wall in a small room or closet where it can sound a bit "boomy". Stylistically, this center channel won't win any awards, but…

First I set up a surround speaker setup in my room. My old center speaker died so I was looking for a decent quality speaker that wouldn't break my bank. As I already had Yamaha 2 floor front speakers this particular brand came into consideration. I've seen other center speakers that weigh hundreds of dollars and thought they must be better! Thank goodness I checked their size - OMG - these things require a separate setup and can't be in front of my TV - they are HUGE! After some thought, I've…

I replaced an aging 10 year old center speaker with this one. While my other still worked fine, I knew that with something new and modern with better technology I could get a much better sound. This one is perfect in every way. I've been slowly upgrading my 10 year old home theater system with components I picked one at a time. I recently upgraded my receiver and subwoofer and now my center channel speaker. I have not used the same brand for any of the 3 items, I choose them based on price and…

I'm personally very happy with this center speaker. I can clearly hear dialogue and sound effects during movies. My wife complained that she couldn't hear well and we turned on subtitles for her, but now she hears very well. I've set the crossover frequency to 100Hz, although this center channel is lowered to 45Hz. Its performance really drops off between 80 and 70 Hz. This means a separate subwoofer can handle anything below 100Hz, freeing up that center channel for higher ranges, which it…

I bought this speaker because of the shallow depth. Fits easily on my mantel without the front of the speaker hanging over the front panel to be cooked like my original Sony center speaker at that point. sound quality? Acceptable. With two 3.5 inch speakers in this box, I'm not expecting great bass response. However, the resolution of the high frequencies is sufficient for film dialogues. Using THX neural tuning on a quality Pioneer home theater receiver Given the compromises in my living room,

I have a Yamaha RX-V530 A/V Receiver. I have had it for many years. It is great. No HDMI, but I use optical lines for my DVD/CD player and smart TV. When playing music, no input signal is sent to the center channel. When watching TV shows and movies, I set the center channel on my Yamaha RX-V530 to "small" and increased it by 2-3 dB. It seems to be working great. It's small, so it can be placed under the TV or, in my case, just above it. All of my other speakers are Polk audio so I wanted to…

Home theater audio is tricky. I've always stayed away from this because I'm a sound freak and the thought of the cost associated with 5 speakers makes me want to swoon a bit. But I decided to put something together for watching movies with kids etc. I tried a few different configurations - one with a very advanced transmission and one with a "good" transmission. I chose the "good" setting, reserving quality material for my two-channel audio system. This center fits very well into the "good"…
