The SCS3 is an extremely versatile, small-sized, magnetically shielded, two-way loudspeaker
designed for stereo or multichannel music and home theater systems. It performs equally
well as an excellent full-range stereo pair, surround-sound, and high performance center-
channel speaker. Its excellent fidelity makes the SCS3 as comfortable playing demanding
music as it is playing your favorite movie soundtracks. The SCS3’s coaxially mounted drivers
allow it to be oriented vertically or horizontally without compromising accurate time
response and to deliver exceptional performance regardless of speaker or listener position.

Because more than one speaker driver is involved in the reproduction of the several
harmonics of any single sound, the drivers must be heard in unison to preserve the natural
structure of the sound.
