After many hours on the internet I came across a speaker I had not seen or heard of in years. Yes the B.I.C. line of speakers. I knew that years ago, after hearing these, I was really impressed with them. So after a little research I decided to give them a try. I got the center channel and two of the bookself speakers, which were to replace a set of Bose speakers. When these speakers can in I was impressed by the quality of them at this price range. I connected the speakers up to my system (Rotel Processor and Parasond Amp). At first I was a little disapointed with the sound but I knew that they needed to burn in for a while. I left my system playing for three or four days non stop and the speakers started to come to life. I have had over the years a few diffrent speaks ( Ohms, Jbl, Cerwin Vega, DCM, and the way overrated Bose) I belive these to be the best sounding of them all. I will soon buy two more DV-62CLRS and use them for my front spearkers and delegate the DV-62SI's to the rear for surround sound. I have to say that for the price you will be hard pressed to find better sounding speakers. Heck, for double the price even.

It's easy for anyone to appreciate the quality of sounds which the BIC speakers produce. 10 years ago, I bought my first set and it brought be 10-years of listening enjoyment. Recently, the original center speaker started to sound "tinny" and I knew it was time to get something new. (Hey, after 10 years - I am pleased with the quality and duration.) So, i replaced my 10-year old DV52CLR with a new DV62CLR-S. I am so happy I did. Wow!
Originally, I went looking at local TV store. All they had was Polk Audio for center speakers. As I listned, I could not feel a sense of appreciation for what I heared - it seemed empty. I was anoyed by the $200+ to $400+ prices they were asking.
I did the research and afterwards I though this center speaker for around $100 was an incredible value. (Given the size, range and sound.) I have no idea why more TV / Home Theatre stores are not carrying BIC. BIC quality can certainly compete against what they are carrying and the price will certain attract the people.
Thanks to Amazon for carrying these. Thanks to BIC for making these. Also - i have a Denon AVR 4802 with 7.1 THX and the speakers really help bring it to live.

...had this center channel for 6 months now and after many, many,many movies with dts and dolby 5.1 i would say 5 stars because the dialogue comes out naturally and didn`t disappoint and also music for dvd audio and even srs with my kenwood sounded awesome.

Simply put, this speaker cannot be beat for value. At about $100 you will get a great sounding and decent looking center channel speaker that will not disappoint. Very crisp, especially with movie dialogue and this speaker will take volume levels that will astound you. The sound quality is comparable to speakers in the $400 - $600 price range and will absolutely blow away any speaker in a box center guaranteed. This speaker also seems to blend well with mid to low sensitive surround speakers. (86-88 db) Did I say it only costs about $100 with free shipping ? If you are on the fence about starting a surround sound system you cannot go wrong at this price point. Only you will know how little you paid for great sound!

I started with one of these for my center channel and was very pleased wiht the sound as compared to other speakers in my system. I needed to repalce two bookshelf speakers in the new home theater setup and since I wanted larger speakers that could lay horizontally on the bookshelf I decided to get two more of these. I am very pleased with the sound. I have a subwoofer, but these sound really good even without the sub.
