A compact three-way centre for clear cinema dialogue
The Monitor Audio Silver C250 7G is a three-way centre speaker built to keep film dialogue clear and natural. It combines the drivers of the smaller Silver C150 and larger Silver C350 into one compact, sealed cabinet, with the seventh-generation Silver range's RST II cones for lower distortion. It is sold as a single speaker.
Why You'll Love It
- Full three-way clarity. A dedicated midrange sits between the tweeter and bass drivers, giving wider, more even coverage than a typical two-way centre, so dialogue stays clear across more seats.
- Sits close to the wall. The sealed cabinet keeps bass precise even when the C250 is tucked into a unit or placed near a wall, and rubber stopper feet are supplied for shelves.
- Five finishes to match the room. Choose Glossy Black, Satin White, Ash, Natural Walnut or Black Oak to sit with the rest of a Silver 7G system.
Under the Hood
- RST II drivers. The 3" mid and dual 5.25" bass drivers use C-CAM cones with Rigid Surface Technology II to stiffen the surface, lowering distortion for clearer sound at volume.
- C-CAM gold dome tweeter. A 1" C-CAM gold dome tweeter with UD Waveguide II widens dispersion for more lifelike, even treble across the room.
- Sealed cabinet design. A sealed enclosure tunes the C250 for tight, controlled bass and predictable placement near walls.
CHT Insider Verdict
The Silver C250 7G is the centre most people should build a Monitor Audio home theatre around. It carries the same driver technology as the Silver floorstanders, so voices match the tone of your front left and right speakers instead of standing apart. For clear dialogue in a real living room, it is hard to beat at this size.
Pro Tip: Match the C250 with Silver 7G floorstanders or bookshelves for a tonal match across the front three speakers. Keep it within about a metre of the same height as your left and right tweeters so voices do not drop below the screen.
