Anybody own Paradigm C5 center? I have Q

27 February 2005, 12:51 Sunday

I cannot believe I am actually considering buying this thing (81lbs-500watts) but I think it would need its own amp correct? The thing has 6 drivers in it. Thanks for any replys!

I use the Paradigm C5 since 1 year already.

I'm powering it with the Anthem Statement P5 (5X325W)with great results. I even drive it full-range sometimes. The C5 goes down to 25Hz! :T

But what I really like about that center is this. It's under my screen (8' wide), but if an actor is on the far side of the screen, then the voice is really "coming" from there, even if it's 5' up and 4-5' left or right. "Imaging" is that good.

But what front speakers are you considering to be paired with the C5? The S8?

To spend more $$$ on electronics without first addressing room acoustics is fruitless IMO.
