So I moved into a new home and sold a lot of my old gear with my house. IMO, the two most important speakers are the center channel and the subwoofer. I picked this center channel to go with two SVS PB-1000s. The center channel is a vast improvement over my previous paradigm center. Very clear vocals and excellent dynamics. Also it has a great off axis performance, which was a important to me with a wide seating area. It it designed to taper off at 80Hz, but that suits me fine as I let the subs handle all sub 80Hz duty. Super satisfied, highly recommended.

I've had many speakers over the years for many iterations of my home theater. I've had several center channels from Definitive Technology, Klipsch, JBL, Polk, Paradigm, etc. None of them sounded bad whatsoever but there was always something missing. The biggest issue was how the center channel would sound in the room when sitting or standing off axis. This is very easy to underestimate, especially if you're the one that's never sitting anywhere else but center stage.Horn loaded speakers are excellent for projecting the soundstage but are very directional. Typical MTM (Mid-Tweeter-Mid) center channel designs tend to have noticeable drop off in clarity when you get outside of 20 or 30° from the center seat. Some lobing and frequency cancellation. You get a very noticeable drop off in not only DB's, but vocal clarity as well.The Monolith 365C will blend well with almost any other brand or speaker design. Yes it will even perform well with horn loaded speaker designs that tend to have center channel pricing on newer models that's higher than what their performance justifies. Excellent speakers, but with limitations. The 365C is dynamic, built well, has excellent off-axis performance, and images far better than what I was expecting. My three recent center channels, the JBL 520c, the Klipsch 450C, and Klipsch 250C all sounded good but were very forward sounding. The Monolith 365C is just as dynamic but actually adds depth to what's being presented on screen. I'm also getting more vertical sound cues than what I was with horn loaded centers.The price point of this speaker and how it performs is in my opinion better than anything else in its price range. One speaker with a very similar three-way design, the Emotiva C1+, is priced the same as the Monolith, but currently unavailable for some time now. It has different sound signature, ribbon tweeter, but in my opinion high frequencies are a little too boosted on that speaker. Really good product, I just think the crossover tuning and driver materials on the Monolith 365C produce a flatter frequency response. If you choose to boost the higher frequencies you can do that within your EQ settings (Audyssey, Dirac, etc.)Excellent price to performance, robust design, can play cleanly and loudly with excellent dynamics. Crossover on the receiver or processor definitely needs to be set at 80 Hz as it should be. Anyone telling you or trying to convince you that a center channel should be producing low end bass doesn't know what they're talking about. Any signal below 80 Hz for the frequencies required from a center channel should be steered towards a powered subwoofer, not your center channel. The only exception would be if you had a full range center channel potentially with its own internal powered subwoofer. Allowing the center channel to only produce frequencies from 80 Hz and above will enable a more dynamic output, particularly with cleaner mids.The only drawback of this speaker for some may be it is power hungry. If you're trying to drive this with a moderate receiver then you're buying the wrong speaker. It really wants and deserves a high current power supply as it runs nominally at 4 ohms. Best case scenario would be driving it from an external amplifier where it's not sharing duty with every other channel a receiver is trying to simultaneously drive.As long as you have the space to mount this, and put it in the right position (not in a cabinet, not recessed on a stand or cabinet, not one foot off the ground) you will be rewarded. Best case scenario would be to get this as close as possible to ear height from a sitting position. If you're putting it on a cabinet, make sure you position it so the drivers are at the outer edge on any surface you're placing it on. Some people tend to put their center channels too far back on a horizontal surface or place it inside of a cabinet where you get a ridiculous amount of reflective sound. Not good. It is very tall, so keep that in mind!

Purchased this center to use with JBL Studio 5 series speakers and it is excellent for home theater. Keep an eye the price as it fluctuates quite a bit. When it's under or around $400 CDN it's a bargain.

Still trying to get everything sorted in my 13.1 system but at this early stage this is ounding so much better than my KEF which is being retired. It will be a while yet but I know that this will be a great investment.
