The centre channel supplies dialogue in movies, and sharpens the musical
stage. It can also add tremendous energy and should not be dismissed lightly
when assembling a surround system. In choosing a Meridian M60C Centre
Channel Loudspeaker, you have acquired refined equipment which will bring you
listening pleasure for many years, whether as part of an enhanced stereo system
or a full home theatre, the centre channel is designed to bring you the highest
quality sound possible.
