Amazon.com Product Description
An excellent addition to a home theater system, this center channel speaker from Acoustic Research reproduces dialogue with crisp precision, making both low-budget indies and hundred-million-dollar blockbusters come alive. The speaker measures 14.87 inches wide and 6.75 inches tall, a manageable size that fits nicely in the average entertainment center or atop or below many TVs (it's magnetically shielded to prevent video interference). Audio-wise, it employs front-firing passive radiators; dual down-firing,, slot-loaded, 4-inch polypropylene midrange drivers; and a 1-inch soft dome tweeter to produce an overall frequency response of 70 Hz to 20 kHz. The speaker's audio performance is particularly stirring when matched with other speakers in the Acoustic Research VP series of home theater separates, which are tonally matched to deliver a complementary sound.

Adding to the ARVP42C's audio potential is the speaker's binding post terminals, which enable both bi-wiring and bi-amping. Bi-wiring divides the audio signal into two separate cables--one for the high frequencies and one for the low--resulting in subtle improvements in audio clarity. Bi-amping goes one step further by using two amplifiers (one for each frequency range) in addition to two cables. By separating the signals from the very start, listeners are essentially doubling the speaker's power output (especially valuable for the low frequencies, which consume more power), which in turn improves the bass response, dynamics, and overall fidelity. And with a power capacity of 15 to 150 watts, the ARVP42C is safe for use with a variety of home theater amplifiers.

So step up to the plate when building your home theater system with the ARVP42C center channel speaker. The unit also incorporates an attractive black ash vinyl finish and carries a five-year warranty on parts and labor.
