Sounds great with the pair of D15 floorstanding speakers for the front of my home theatre. The finish is sleek and sophisticated.

I have this center paired with the D17 towers, with D7's as surrounds. I have the D5c as replacement for my still excellent Pro Cinema 200 center. While the Pro Cinema is still a great speaker, the D5c is another step up. It just conveys sound in an easy and natural way, and with a weight that is far bigger than its' stature. When playing Guardians of the Galaxy through my Apple TV into my Marantz SR8015 (amazing movie and receiver, the sound of Thanos' voice was huge, deep, and just filled the room. My audiophile friend looked at me smiling, like that was unreal. I'm using separate amps as well, which I highly recommend doing with this speaker as it just brings it all out, although they will still be amazing using just the receiver for power. This is a very clean, gorgeous, and competent sounding center speaker, and I recommend it unreservedly. photos to come.

Having downsized our home I was forced to give up a full home theater w/ BP2002 Towers, CLR 2300 Center + 4xBP2X Surrounds + 12" Supercube. Even at 20 years old this was and remains the best sounding home theater and music experience I have heard. Now onto my new setup which is D9's paired with a D5c Center. The sound from these speakers is great and clarity rivals that of the BP series however I initially hoped that with the passive radiators to get by w/o a sub but just couldn't get the sound I wanted so added the D9 to the mix a week later. With the D9 the overall experience improved significantly leading me to the 5 star rating. Make no mistake these speakers are not as immersive and of course not as powerful as the large Bi-Polar arrays having built-in subs but for the size they are worthy competitors and sound great. The glacier white cabinets are attractive and look very sleek and modern and get frequent praise from friends. My only wish would have been that the front of the speakers also been in white vs. the silver finish so they would look better with the covers removed. If you are tired of your sound bar and looking for an attractive, space saving and great sounding system I would highly recommend these speakers. Just like my old setup which was paired to the top of the line Denon AVR I have the D9's+D5c paired to a Denon AVR as well just one that was about 1/8th the price of the previous one. Might add rears later but with the room layout it would be very difficult so for now I'm happy!!
