Klipsch Synergy Black Label C-200 Center Channel Speaker Review

The Klipsch Synergy Black Label C-200 Center Channel Speaker is a great addition to any home theater system. With its proprietary horn technology, dual 5.25” high-output woofers, and dynamic 1” tweeter, this speaker delivers crystal-clear dialogue and vocals. Users have reported a dramatic improvement in voice quality and the elimination of distortion when using this speaker. Additionally, the sleek black ash vinyl finish complements any home decor.

Pros:

  • High-performance entertainment value
  • Sleek and modern design
  • Proprietary Tractrix horn technology for uniform dispersion
  • Crystal-clear high frequencies and tight bass

Cons:

  • Speaker must be connected to an AV receiver or amplifier for audio signal and power
  • Supplying the speaker with sufficient power is important for quality audio reproduction and longevity of the speaker's components

FAQ

Q: What is the recommended wattage amplifier for the Klipsch Synergy Black Label C-200 Center Channel Speaker?
A: The C-200 has a 100 Watt continuous power rating at 8 Ohms nominal with a 400 Watt peak. We recommend at least 80 Watts per channel at 8 Ohms and not going over half way to the peak power on our speakers, so the maximum recommended would be 200 Watts per channel at 8 Ohms.

Q: Is this speaker magnetic shielded?
A: Magnetic shielding is typically not necessary as the magnets mainly affected older CRT TVs, but this design still has shielded drivers anyway (Low Frequency Drivers Dual 5.25” (13.3cm), magnetically shielded IMG woofers.).

Q: Does this speaker come with a mesh cover or grill?
A: Yes, this speaker does come with a mesh cover or grill.

Q: What is the frequency response and crossover frequency of this speaker?
A: The C-200 frequency response is 82Hz-23KHz ± 3dB.

Q: Can I use this speaker in a car?
A: The C-200 is designed for home theater and requires a receiver for audio signal and power. It can be used wherever you can connect the wires, but it's not a very practical speaker for a car.

Q: Is there an "Aux" input jack on this speaker?
A: No, there isn't an "Aux" input jack on this speaker. The C-200 is a passive speaker that requires a speaker wire connection to an AV receiver for audio signal and power.

Q: What's the difference between the "Black Label" and normal Klipsch speakers?
A: From what we can tell, it's mainly the cosmetics that make it different. It has a less expensive finish than real wood veneer, but we have found the sound quality to be superior. The Klipsch Synergy Black Label series also features proprietary Tractrix horn technology, which provides a uniform, 90 x 90 dispersion pattern and allows for placement just about anywhere.

Q: What's included in the box?
A: The box includes (1) C-200 Center Channel speaker with a power cord. External wiring is not included.

Q: Is this speaker Bluetooth-enabled?
A: No, the C-200 is a passive speaker that requires a receiver for audio signal and power. Bluetooth capability would be an option to look for in the receiver you use with this speaker.

Q: Would the Klipsch C-200 work with a Marantz NR 1510 AV system and the Klipsch RP-400M that I have, or is there a better recommendation for a center speaker?
A: The RP-400M is fine with that receiver, and the best match to the RP-400M for center channel is RP-400C, which would work well with it too. The C-200 has a 100 Watt continuous power rating at 8 Ohms nominal with a 400 Watt peak. We recommend at least 80 Watts per channel at 8 Ohms for this model.

Q: What are some customer reviews of this product?
A: Customers have reported that the Klipsch Synergy Black Label C-200 Center Channel Speaker provides crystal-clear dialogue and vocals, accurate and non-fatiguing sound, and creates an amazing soundstage with its latest technology. Customers have also praised its contemporary finish that integrates easily with any decor.
