Review Summary

These are built extremely well, the bracing inside the enclosure is substantial...dampening fill Top/Bottom and Sides...Ventilated voice coil Woofers with a substantial motor/magnet assembly. The tweeter/super tweeter assembly is also well designed, letting the tweeter cross over to the super tweeter @17.5K ( Nice chamber on the rear of the tweeter too , with that super tweeter crossed over so high...you could use this as an MTM speaker vertically...it sounds great.) I had an old borescope , so took some shots of the inside through the port.

If you also use the Signature range as part of your home cinema, you will find that the Signature Center 53 is the ideal speaker for the front centre channel. In this case, the hi-res dual tweeter module is flanked by 2 x 170 mm bass-midrange units, as also found in all the other speakers in the range. This guarantees absolutely homogeneous sound, no matter where the director has positioned the action in acoustic terms. With its width of 550 mm, the Center 53 is best positioned under the TV, e.g. in appropriate shelving.
