Combining Science, Music and Home Theater the VCC- 5 Reference Center speaker sets new standards. The VCC-5 Reference Center was developed for use with the Model Five, 3A Signature and Reference Monitor speakers in high performance multi-channel systems. The VCC- 5 is a three-way design based on the VCC- 1 Signature, but with the addition of two (2) 6.5-inch cast-basket woofers. These woofers are internally mounted and cross over at 150Hz to the coaxial system, which has a crossover frequency of 3500Hz. A true triaxial output is achieved by channeling bass around the midrange-tweeter coaxial array. This eliminates the severe comb filter lobing produced by horizontally displaced drivers. The result is a Reference level performance, both in measurement and sound, regardless of off-axis perspective above, below or to the right or left of the speaker. While not an easy design goal to meet, we feel this property is mandatory for a proper center speaker and it is found in all of our VCC’s. The VCC- 5 Reference preserves the coherence of the VCC-1 Signature while broadening frequency extension, lowering distortion and increasing power handling.

The VCC-5 Video Center Channel Dialog Speaker is an integral part of a home audio/video system where it helps localize dialog and other movie sounds at the TV screen. The VCC-5 is the product of extensive research into the qualities required for realistic movie sound reproduction. The engineering, construction and materials of the VCC-5 far exceed conventional industry standards and result in a level of performance unmatched by other center channel dialog speakers. The VCC-5 is a phase coherent design intended to be used in a high-quality audio/video surround system in combination with main speakers that have accurate frequency response and phase response. Whether you chose Vandersteen Audio main speakers or others with the proper qualities, the seamless blend with the VCC-5 will insure maximum intelligibility on dialog and superior realism on music and sound effects. The VCC-5’s innovative, aligned triaxial design eliminates lobing effects and allows the VCC-5 to be placed at any height above or below the screen while maintaining consistent sound throughout the listening area. Its adjustable proximity compensation helps counter the effects of placement in a cabinet or near a wall and insures optimum performance in any environment. Its pleasing appearance allows the VCC-5 to visually complement your main speakers and the décor of your home. The Vandersteen Audio VCC-5 Video Center Channel Dialog Speaker is designed and built in the United States of America.
