Easily upgrade to home theater sound by simply adding the VCS-10 center channel speaker to your existing surround sound receiver and stereo speakers. You will hear exciting lifelike sound across the front of your room, with dialogue "locked" on the screen. From there, add surround speakers for full home theater sound.??The VCS-10 center channel speaker uses proprietary Bose technologies like Compound Loaded Drivers and an Articulated Array speaker design. Using a proprietary design, these drivers are engineered to optimize low-frequency output for rich, natural sound from a small enclosure. By precisely positioning the drivers inside the speaker cabinet, an Articulated Array speaker design can provide a large, consistent sound field. This allows for a more cinema-like experience with VCS-10 center channel speaker and for more even sound coverage with 251 outdoor speakers. You hear cinema-like dialogue reproduced consistently over a wider area than with conventional center channel speakers. Dialogue remains... Less

I tried out the 701 speakers, those were the only ones I liked. The M&K towers that i tried out... Read full review »

A Little Background


There are some reading the title that must be thinking, "Nooooo! Surely he isn't going to bash Bose!" and they would be wrong, to some degree. I am not here to bash, but I am certainly not going to bandwagon and sing the praises of the almighty Bose simply because... Read full review »
