Are the 20x11.8 dimensions right? I want to use this for a center speaker but reading some of the reviews make me think it won't fit.

Austin, Those dimensions are correct. I have a cable box on mike and it fits with plenty of room

The picture does not give you an idea of the size. Think big for all the ES line of speakers as the center is no exception with two 5 1/2" woofers and 2 tweeters meaning it's big. The dimensions are depth=10", height=7" and width = 18 3/4" and weighs in at 17 lbs. it also has a bass reflex port so if it's in a shelf, make sure it's vibration proof!

My speaker does not measure more than 9."It's about 3/8 ths less than 9." You should be good.

I have polk tsi 200 speakers which are much larger than the base, I just centered the speaker on the base, and it worked out for me. It is still surprisingly secure even though the base is much smaller than the speaker base.

sqa4life....I use them for my Bowers and Wilkins 686 speakers (dimensions below). They work fine for those, much bigger though and you would be pushing it. It appears that yours are slightly wider than mine. I would think you should be OK. Height: 315mm (12.4 in) Width: 160mm (6.3 in) Depth: 229mm (9.0 in)

Hello. I have it in a similar sized room and on the merits of performance, no, it is appropriate and works well. The only gripe/issue I have overall is this center channel speaker is MUCH larger than I anticipated. You need to match it above a TV no smaller than 65"; It needs to be mounted above the TV or if your TV itself is mounted, ensure you have ample room beneath your TV. In general it isn't as eye-appealing as I would have imagined but in terms of performance, I have mine set with Yamaha 7.1 entertainment system and it is clean and crisp for a center channel! Hope that helps! Hello. I have it in a similar sized room and on the merits of performance, no, it is appropriate and works well.

I think so, I use them on a pair of Definitive Technologies SM-65; Product Dimensions: 18.7 x 11.5 x 20 inches ; 22.2 pounds which are bigger than yours. I contacted Def Tech's support before just to verify because the speaker's weight exceeds their specifications, I recommend that you get in touch with them before buying just to be sure. I installed them on a brick wall and that helps. Great product.

I'm only using them as left/right speakers. I guess it would depend if they're wall mounted or would you be using the stand. Mine are wall mounted and I wouldn't want the center speaker to stick out any further than the left/right speakers...or even the TV. I would check the depth of the Motion 6/8 to gauge how much deeper they are than the slms...you're gonna get great sound with either...now it's just a matter of appearance...hope this helps.

Not sure if a center speaker will work for that my assumption is a center speaker is just for center

While I have not tested anything larger than my speakers, I can honestly say I don't believe they will work with speakers that are that wide (11.25) inches. The only way to make them work would be to find a way to snip off the ends of the bracket pieces and you take a risk of your speakers not being secured properly. I don't use the tiny screws with the unit to hold them in place but use the blue tack material instead which works very well. Remember, it is not just the size but the weight and amount of vibration that will determine the stability if you don't have speakers firmly mounted. There are other options to consider such as fittings for larger computer monitors (check the weight limitations), some pro speaker mounts for studios etc. that would probably be a better choice (with some rigging to interface the back of the speaker to given mounts).

While I love my monitor stand, I don't think it will work for you. Even though the speaker shelves are adjustable, they don't really create a corner piece. Even adjusted inward it is still 28" across the front and so would be stopped from really molding into the corner if that makes sense?

The top plates are 5.5 inches square (14 cm.). I have Energy CB-20 speakers resting on them and they work well. I am not sure if Would use them with speakers with a MTM configuration such as Polk TSi200 because they are tall and have a greater mass near the top of the speaker. (They might fall off the stand if bumped hard.) They may not be the best choice in a home with large dogs or very young children. ☺

I have big center speaker and there is plenty of room for it. Highly recommended.

17.5 high and 18.5 wide. Depth probably not a factor, but it is 18.5 inches. My center speaker sits in this spot, supported by the middle shelf on both ends. A sub could go anywhere in the room.

Possibly, what is average size? I have a 55" plasma and the base is slightly larger than the speaker, I don't think it would be stable enough.I also have a 23" HDMI monitor that would easily fit. Speaker vibrations at high volume with lots of bass might be a problem. Amazon needs tocheck their item measurements, they are often wrong. They show this item: 10 x 10 x 7.5 inches. Just by looking at the picture you can tell it can't be right. Dual 5 -1/4-Inch speakers plus two more in between, only in a Tardis! Anyway mine measure 10x20.5x7.5 inches.

Sorry to get back so late! My daughters room is med. size and it works great for her. We've used it in our van and even outside with great results. It certainly won't give you the "punch" of a big speaker system but works perfect for what we use it for. Hope this helps!
