Build a set to length →A “Top Pick” from Sound and Vision Magazine, this is the exact same model of Center that we used in our primary home theater environment, for 3+ years. It beat an impressive number and range of more expensive Centers in our blind comparison testing, before I was finally allowed to “upgrade” it. 🙂
Those of you who know us, realize that we tend to turn over our in-house components at regular intervals. The fact that we kept our CS400i for so long is simply a testament to how well it performed.

Tweeter and woofers sit as close together as physically possible — Energy's Convergent Source Module — so they behave as one source and hold the balance across a wide seating area rather than one chair. Dual 5.5-inch woofers on the patented Ribbed Elliptical Surround, a 1-inch hyperbolic aluminium dome, 92 dB and up to 200 watts, rear-ported to 60 Hz. The grille is not included. Condition very good.
Yamaha NS-C90 Center Speaker – Dual-Angle Tilt, Made in Japan
The cabinet is asymmetrical on purpose: flip it over and it tilts the other way, aiming up at you from a low shelf or down at you from the top of a cabinet. Sealed rather than ported, so it needs no rear clearance. Two full-range drivers, nothing crossing in the vocal band. 6 ohms, 50 watts nominal. Built in Japan; very good condition.
