    Nice center channel

    Beautiful clean soundbar appearance. Great for under a television. Not sure the sound from this is as crisp as from the Q350s (which are cheaper) but it certainly projects the typical center vocals across a wide soundstage and has consistent sound with the other KEF speakers in the setup. A bit overpriced given it requires an external wire harness (provided) and KEF didn’t re-engineer it as a true center. Powered by a Denon AVR X4700H.

    Great sound out of a compact box that works well with the JBL Home Stage Series without their bulky center channel speaker.

    Bought this as center speaker paired with bw shelf speakers and sub. Even as only centered left right it is really crisp with depth total range Great finish and size very sleek. Only wish the converter to center was just banana plugs instead of combining wires

    The passive soundbar from Kef is an excellent product that fills a void of having external speakers but needing an enhanced center speaker. Reasonable price point for the value added to enhance the listening pleasure.

    A Wife Pleaser With Great Sound

    This is an excellent center channel speaker. It has a very wide field in the horizontal plane, which is very good when your audience is not all sitting in the sweet spot. Dialogs are crisp and clear and because the bar actually has three sets of concentric speakers it can also be set up as a left, right, center bar as well. It has multiple mounting options which is another nice feature. It is well made and feels substantial. I installed it for a client and he loves it. More importantly, so does his wife!

    with four ceiling speakers and a woofer, we turned this into a center only and it has really helped us with dialogue. we're both of an age that ambient and background sound often drown out speech. This fit our entertainment cabinet and really does the job. Good price too!

    very happy with this choice for a center channel speaker. Sound wasn't right until I added this piece so there is sound from the front of the TV instead of just above it. Very easy to install and sound quality is good for my home setup. Added to Denon Amp with no issues.

    I looked for a center channel that had a small form factor and couldn't find any until i came across this item. It was perfect in not taking up a lot of space as it hangs under the tv and didn't require power like a soundbar. The sound is good and achieves what i wanted from it.

    Sound quality is great. The wire to join left, right, and center is bit short. Be nice to add wire nuts to the box as you need to merge the wires from the receiver.

    Excellent sound, beautiful streamline design. Included wiring harness which allowed all drivers to be used as the center channel speaker was a plus for me.

    Fantastic center channel speaker

    I was a little skeptical when I purchased the center channel speaker, but I have been surprised at the great quality level for such a small unit. The dialogue clarity is fantastic. I have been using a pretty high sound bar with rear speakers and a subwoofer due to the room we were in however we moved and the room we are in is much larger and gave me access to using an AV receiver with regular speakers and because my Sony OLED TV set is on a stand very few center channel speakers would fit in front of it on the same table so I decided to try this and it’s way better than I thought it would be. Once again reinforced that regardless of how good a soundbar you might have, it will never outperform a good quality AV system with good speakers and a good subwoofer so if you’re looking for a low profile center speaker with great performance you can’t go wrong with this.

    Bought this and KEF T Series Dual 4-1/2" 2-1/2-Way Center-Channel Speaker to try as center channel at home as BestBuy did not have either in the store to listen to. Loved this and kept it. Matched with KEF LS50Meta speakers and the sound is very good.

    Bought this KEF as a center speaker for a 3.1 system with Elac UniFi 2.0 towers and an SVS SB-2000 Pro subwoofer. It blends perfectly with the other speakers. Dialog is anchored to the center with a significant increase in clarity compared to the old Boston Acoustics soundbar we had been using as a center speaker. Strongly recommended.
