I wouldn't recommend this for a LCR. For this you want to have 3 channels - left, center, and right to connect to the same speaker. They make speakers specifically for this but I think most people opt for the cheaper 3 speaker option. If these are going in wall behind a screen, do the 3 single speakers.

I wish I had an acoustic screen. UST but it's not acoustic. Thanks for the heads up

Huh. Just ordered two. Guess I'm getting four speakers. If you can believe the website pics, they look like cast frame mid/ woofs with a decent looking crossover.

This is an in-wall speaker for a single channel, yes it would work in an LCR setup with 3 units surrounding the TV or screen. I can't speak to the dimensions if it would work with your wall framing mounted horizontal. Sold out by the time I got there

I have 4 of these, used for the surround channels (left and right surround and surround back) and they're excellent. They were very easy to to install and are well made. Audio quality is like 7/10 relative to my other channels but frankly you dont need anything amazing for surrounds provided you do a good EQ.

I paid the exact same price as this deal when I got them in 2023
