Yes, assuming you are connecting speaker wire to the positive and negative terminals.

If asking about ohm ratings, more details on the Logitech speakers would need to be provided.

Receiver is capable of 140 per channel

Noob here who enjoys watching movies, any input much appreciated

Why? This one has better frequency response than the RC-52. Am I missing something?

Sorry, I guess they have the same size woofer. I was under the impression the 52 was 5" and the 25 was not. I will have to look at this closer.

The R-25c and R-52C are very close - you almost definitely won't be able to tell the difference.
I own a R-25C and I can tell you that it's a great center speaker for home theater usage, and an excellent option - likely the best option - at this price. If this is the speaker size you want and in your budget, don't hestiate!

I also recently purchased a RC-62ii to replace it because I found one for $200 and honestly I've been having trouble justifying the larger speaker. Don't get me wrong, when all of the other speakers are turned off you and I put them head to head, the RC-62ii shows more range and better sound for music, the male voices on screen sound deeper and likely more accurate etc. However, that depth also makes dialog slightly harder to understand which is not something I anticipated. Still far better than many other brands thanks to the Klipsch horn, but still surprising nonetheless. And when the whole home theater is in use instead of the center speaker in isolation, the difference between the two is even more difficult to discern.

Point is, if you want a larger speaker then try to snag a Warehouse deal on a 62ii. But by far the best VALUE is this R-25C for $130, hands down.

I can't figure out whether Adorama charges a return shipping fee. I want to order but want to be able to return if it doesn't work. Anyone know?

I previously ordered from them and they used to use shoprunner (free return shipping) but it doesn't look like they're affiliated anymore.
