Flexibility is a must in selecting and positioning speakers to form a home cinema system. The 600 Series 3 accommodates all settings and needs. Our two dedicated centre-channel monitors are both designed to relay clean, crisp dialogue, but magnetic-shielding also allows them to fill front left and right positions close to the television without causing a trace of picture interference. Thanks to their symmetrical design, they can either be laid horizontally or stood upright.

For centre channel, the more compact LCR60 S3 can typically be used to partner the 600 Series bookshelf speakers or the DM602.5 S3 floorstander.

The LCR600 S3, with its higher output and improved bass extension, partners either the DM603 S3 or DM604 S3 in larger home cinema installations.

Each equipped with a pair of bass/midrange drive units, magnetic shielding and symmetrical design, the LCR60 S3 and LCR600 S3 will deliver superb performance from any position in a home cinema set-up.
