Customers admire the Reference Premiere Dual 5.25" 400-Watt Passive 2-Way Surround Sound Speaker (Pair) for its excellent sound quality. However, some customers have noted that the speakers are quite heavy. Overall, the sound quality seems to be a highly appreciated feature, while the weight is a potential drawback to consider.
High end is extremely aggressive on all Klipsch speakers, something I l wish I had known before buying into a 5.1.2 system. (RP-8000F II, RP-404C II, RP-500SA II and these RP-502S II) I began having ear pain within the first week, no amount of eq seems to tone them down. Within a day of packing the speakers up to return them the ear pain subsided. If you have even slightly sensitive ears, stay away from Klipsch. The best they sounded was after I packed them up for return. Back to my old Bower’s and Wilkins.

Way way way more effective than the lower-end model. I was hesitant to upgrade but was blown away by the performance. Never really bought in to the upward-firing ATMOS gimmick but these make the experience surprisingly acceptable. High ceilings are not as effective. I had these in a home with 9' ceilings and the results were great. With 15' ceilings, it's enough to know the space is filled but not the best scenario. Angle makes a huge difference, also. Be sure to account for where the sound will bounce so it lands in your seating area and not behind you

I bought this center channel, and it sound good, my theater room was too big, so I returned it and got the Klipsch - Reference Premiere Series Quad 5.25" 600-Watt Passive now it is awesome
