Designer’s Note from Bill Dudleston
More than 70% of midrange information and virtually all
speech is steered to center in film soundtracks.The center
channel speaker is unquestionably the most important speaker in
a multi-channel setup.
This exceptional transducer represents the state of the art in
home theater performance. Designed to integrate seamlessly with
the Legacy Empire speaker system, the Broadway center speaker
can also upgrade other high quality systems.
How many times have you missed a critical line of film
dialogue over muffled or tinny sounding TV speakers? Have you
ever found yourself cranking up the volume to an aggravating
level just to avoid missing the plot?
High school geometry taught us that a location in free space
can be specified by the coordinates of a single point and that
two such points can describe a line.Adding a third point allows
us to define an entire plane, while adding fourth and fifth points
opens the possibilities to multiple planes.
Likewise, the localization advantages of discrete 5.1
multichannel audio become obvious.Adding a center channel
speaker to a system will result in improved clarity, stable dialogue
and a natural sense of depth. Central images retain their position
even with extreme listener positions.
Broadway utilizes our exclusive 5.25” KEVLITE-Ti® midrange
and NEOdome tweeter to project the center channel information
with sparkling clarity.
Dual 7” woofers combine to deliver midbass with solid impact.
Broadway’s special distribution pattern delivers sound
uniformally to every seat in the house. And because it’s only 4.5”
thick, the magnetically-shielded Broadway center speaker can be
placed on top of your existing television, or conveniently
wall/soffit mounted.
