Boston Acoustics Horizon Series MCS130 5.1-Channel Surround Speaker System (Black)

Horizon Series MCS130 Surround Speaker System -- Realistic Sound From Every Point in the Room

The Boston Acoustic MCS 130 surround sound speaker system is a step-up in every way. The front speakers are LCR's with dual 3.5-inch mid-bass drivers flanking a 1-inch Kortec® soft dome tweeter. The surround speakers use a single 3.5-inch mid-bass with the same 1-inch tweeter. The MCS 130 speakers feature 5-way binding posts instead of spring clips, and they sport the elegant soft-touch finish. The MCS 130 down-firing subwoofer uses a 200-watt RMS amplifier and a 10-inch woofer. The subwoofer uses the same soft-touch finish as the speakers. With three LCRs, two surrounds and one subwoofer, this system will meet all your entertainment sound needs.

This unit has been refurbished by the manufacturer to operate as brand new. It comes with a warranty.

Techology is Key

All Horizon bookshelf and LCR speakers share certain key technologies. They all use 1-inch Kortec® soft dome tweeters, for smooth, extended high frequency response out to 25kHz. The woofers feature Deep Channel® Design, or DCD, providing increased bass output without the risk of bottoming out. The woofers all have phase plugs for smoother midrange response and increased power handling. With Horizon, Boston introduces RBDD which stands for Reduced Baffle Diffraction Design. The result is wider and smoother dispersion and more life-like sound. Please click on the hyperlink to learn more. Finally, these models feature MagnaGuard® video shielding, making them safe for use near any type of display.

Features to Please

All Horizon bookshelf and LCR speakers share certain key features. They all have a racetrack shaped, rear port that is flared on both ends. The shape helps reduce the footprint of the port, taking up less room on the back of the speaker. The combination of the flared opening on both ends of the port tube and its rear location virtually eliminates chuffing, or audible port noise. They all have 5-way binding posts to accommodate the use of any thickness of speaker wire or style of termination. They all come with an adjustable footing, allowing them to sit securely on a flat surface either vertically or horizontally and to be angled toward the listening position. They all have an integrated keyhole for quick and easy wall mounting. The keyhole and standoffs on the back of the speaker keep it far enough off the wall to not block the port, maintaining the sound quality that the Boston engineers intended they have. They all feature a soft-touch finish, giving them an elegant high-end appearance and terrific feel.
