This is a very capable center speaker. Paired with the Monoprice speaker stand, it's a great addition.

At the price point I didn't expect it to sound as good as it did but the timbre was too far from matching the setup I wanted it in.
Mono price was very fast at order processing both going ways.

Good build quality. Quite decent low frequency weight at this low price point !

Nice full sound center.

Full, rich sound, only been using it for a week, still need to break it in before I turn up the volume. The box is a bit big, but it has to be.

Great improvement over their basic center channel unit. I wanted better spoken word sound as well as a bit more bass and this has done the job. It is a bit large and I have now mounted my TV on top of it which has turned out to work giving me more of a theater experience. The speaker is well worth the money I spent and it supplements my bookshelf pair of KEF-Cs.

Very crisp and deep sound, vocals are alsome, very glad I chose this center speaker, diameter is very large.

As a first entry into finally assembling some kind of home theater system?. Very nice sounding components?. With its low sensitivity ? it still works with a lower powdered receiver amplifier, but is sure to come alive when you upgrade to a receiver or amplifier with more power. Clear, crisp? great choice for someone looking to venture into home theater? looking for something decent without breaking the bank.

This center channel speaker balances out the front sound of my home theater.

Bass response could be better. I've got a pair of Polk bookshelf speakers with a ported woofer that do a much better job on the low frequencies. But I admit, they are uncommonly good and were an excellent value when I bought them over a decade ago.

This center channel speaker has great clarity, and with the other speakers in my 5.1 setup covering the lower range, dialogue with deep notes still comes out well.

Note that the dimensions given for this are wrong. Lacking any industry standardization for written dimensions as "LxWxH", one needs to rely on visual depictions, but the diagram on this product page has the front-to-back and top-to-bottom dimensions reversed. This speaker is 8" tall, and 9" deep, not the other way around.

I find it very frustrating to not be able to get accurate dimensional information on Monoprice's speaker products. I really wish they'd get their act together in that respect.
