I bought one of these on closeout as well, had to wait a while to put it into service. When I did, the range, clarity, performance per watt is frankly amazing. One of the best buys I have made in the modern era. Replaced an Infinity CC-3, which, after 24 years is still no slouch; I will miss it.

Ok so I bought this about 3 weeks ago for 250 on FB. I have a small room and notice the dialogue was a little bass heavy. I work as a music engineer and it was bothering me. What I did was took the plastic part off the back ports and plugged them with my svs port plugs. Went to my recievers equalizer and took 2db off 500hz. Now this is an end game center channel. I will never trade or sell this speaker!!! Sounds amazing now in my small room. I never get ear fatigue watching movie and dialogue is very clear and not thin.

Got mine in Cherry today and it really kind of works in between two 707 dark towers. Main thing is it sounds incredible with dialogue.Never heard voices sound so clean and distinct.Cant imagine what this will sound like after 50 hours break in. So glad I bought this no matter what the color.. Your reviews have moved me way over the top in the audio game.

Love your audio setup, you did what you could with the type of room and the chimney. But I recommend a drop down projector screen with audio pass-through. Tvs on top of chimneys don't look sexy. I'm guessing you aren't using the fireplace or hot temps can ruin your center. Maybe remove it and make a flat wall.

Could you tell me what crossover you have set your 706 at and your 707 or are you running them as large? Im still experimenting with my 707s but for me it seems setting them as small with a 60HZ crossover works best(for now).

I know its been over 2 years since you made this video, but I was curious if I could pick your brain on what your experience has been with it? My LCR are Polk RtiA9's and a CsiA6 center. Been thinking of upgrading, but I wanted to stick in the polk lineup if possible. I'm just wondering if the upgrade to this over my A6 is worth the hassle of tracking one of these down, especially since getting a hold of one is getting harder and harder.

I have a very similar older Polk Audio center speaker that I actually never used. been sitting in my basement for almost 20 years. Polk CS400 center speaker. (this speaker is heavy) I wonder if it can be converted to a subwoofer. don't know if its a crazy idea. but good quality speakers today are not cheap. you were lucky with 73% off. I don't remember what I paid for this one. but I know it was expensive at that time.

Noticed the finish. It is basically glossy piano black, especially the front. It is gleaming at you whether you want that or not. The worst finish imaginable for any audio gear that would be placed so close to a TV or PJ screen. All the lights from the TV and PJ screen will forever be bouncing off it it. I would reed to wrap this think in "Black Hole Black" wrap.

10:34 "I flipped it over the right way." Nope, it seems like you have it upside down (with the HF tweeter on the bottom). All the way though. Tweeter on bottom, mid-range MF driver on top. Which is why you had to use the discs to raise the rear feet. If you had it right-side-up, you wouldn't have had to. You are right about the oval company logo in the screen, horrid. Now way to remove it? Bad.

No. I tilted it because it was above ear level and I had to aim it. Both top and bottom are angled so if you need it pointing straight you need to shim.

@@COGuyStuff Got it. It still seems to me that the tweeter is on the bottom and midrange is on top. Shouldn't it be the other way around? Also, not understanding why these speakers mfrs are not installing at least 2 front twist- in and out adjustable height legs? Then if they did a pair in the rear 2 corners also, one could very easily and elegantly tilt the thing up, down, or not at all. Sam price projectors have that feature.
