High Efficiency = Dynamic, Immersive Sound
DerekF Posted 3 years ago
Dynamic sounding with great scale - even with out of the box using an Aiyima A07 Class D amp. Towed in, they have great imaging. Will be pairing this with a Yamaha 100W channel receiver and Denafrips Ares II. My plan is to eventually upgrade to a Decware Torii-Jr V2 tube amp which should provide more than enough power for these very efficient speakers.

Harsh vocals, poor QA
Paul Posted 3 years ago
Very harsh vocals, even feel distorted at times. Very poor buying experience - I received a damaged speaker (smashed corner) in box which didn't have any visible damage, either they knowingly put a damaged speaker in the store or at the factory, buyers beware!

Big and sound great
JonB Posted 3 years ago
Amazing value - full clean sound in my room - lots of clarity in the highs - I didn’t find these bright. They are efficient and easy to drive. Just wish they had a real wood veneer and some different color options.

Great speaker
LarryZ Posted 3 years ago
These are beautiful looking and sounding speakers. The high end could be a bit brighter for my taste, but they really do sound nice.

Boosted highs and flat mids.
With the correct positioning you could get a solid low end out of these speakers. Thats about the only good thing about these towers. Highs are harsh way too throaty. I felt like the people that tuned this speaker are starting to lose their hearing and need a pronounced high end. The mids are ok. Flat but I could live with it.

Your speakers may benefit from a break in period. There are several simple ways to break a speaker in; while you could choose to buy costly gear to do so, it really isn’t required.

The easiest—and most enjoyable—way is to simply play them, choosing music with a wide dynamic range. Playing it just a bit louder than you normally might also help. Many receivers have a test tone that can accomplish the same goal; test signals are also commercially available. <img src="https://s3.amazonaws.com/stratos-logos/logos/klipsch.png" alt="klipsch" title="klipsch" style="display: block !important; margin-top: 2em !important; border: 1px solid #ccc !important; padding: 2px !important; background-color: white !important;" />
