Big sound for Medium footprint
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a set of Infinity mini speakers and the sub died. I decided that it was time to look into good speakers. I wanted the best sound for the money, and I wanted it to be reasonably priced. I went in and listed to the Klipsch floor speakers and these speakers, and these speakers blew the floor standing ones away. Especially when you think about for the price difference you can easy get a good sub. If you can find them, buy them. If not, check out the newer version of the speakers. Defilnitly worth a listen. Don't spend your money on a set of speakers because of the name, do it because they sound good.

Great Speakers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My daughter is mostly deaf so getting speakers to work so she can hear the music is not easy. With these she has enough bass to hear the music and really enjoy it again. THe size is perfect as you can put them almost anywhere in the room. Much better than the huge ones we had before. Also the sp=eakers go out into the room and not just straight forward so you can be anywhere and hear all the sounds. If you want some speakers that are a great buy then these are it.

Great speakers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These speakers blow my Bose 301s away. My second pair of Klipsch. I've never heard quality sound like this from small bookshelf speakers. Even the bass is rich and clear. You're going to need a sub if you want to rattle the walls though. If you can't afford or don't have space for the floor standing models, this is the way to go.

Great Speakers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We just purchased a LG 60" tv from Best Buy and needed two front left and right speakers for surround system. Found Klipsch speakers on sale and decided to give them a try. Great choice. We could not find a wall mount for the speakers as Klipsch did not recommend screwing into the speakers themselves and recommended a clamp type shelf using no screws. My husband is super handy and built wall mounts for them. The speakers sound and look great. Even us oldies enjoy great music.

Perfect replacement for my old speakers in my apt.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My old, duelie's, which I've had for years, finally failed. I went to Best Buy looking for replacements and had the good fortune of being hooked up with an awesome sales rep (after 2 handoffs) who worked diligently in finding me what I needed, at a price that kept getting better and better. She did show me the newest type of products out on the market, but she did not pressure me (I was very sure about what I wanted). I live in a smaller apt and don't need a massive sound-system - we succeeded in outfitting me with the perfect replacement system. Thank you!!

Doesn't Disappoint
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The speakers are just the right size for my living room. I have other Kilpsch speakers and I am completely satisfied with them. Sound quality is excellent for the size. I hear sounds that I haven't noticed before in movies I've seen countless times before. Great quality. I will be getting more Kilpsch speakers when its time to upgrade again.

Great with a sub-woofer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased these speakers to replace a pair of book shelf speaker that I have. Overall I am pleased with the sound for the price. There are better sounding speakers available, but not at this price point. I use these speakers with a powered sub-woofer that rounds out the sound. The speaker by themselves make good clean highs and mid range sound. Low bass is not there.

amazing deal when bought on sale
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I listened to and compared every set of bookshelf speakers in Best Buy. This set of speakers was by far the best sounding pair in their class. If you can find these on sale, don't hesitate to pick them up. I actually use these as computer speakers by hooking them up to a small amplifier. Great sound, and great quality.

Q: QuestionCan I connect 8 ohm speaker to a 6 ohm stereo?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Yes you can because a 8 ohm speaker puts less of a load on your amplifier. On the down side, this may cause your stereo to put out less power per channel which is not a problem. If it was the other way around, putting a 6 ohm speaker on a 8 ohm stereo, it may cause your stereo to run hot if it can handle the load.

Q: QuestionHow do you connect iPhone to speakers?Bluetooth? Wireless network?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Well since you asked your question for this particular set of speakers, I will answer how you would go about getting your iPhone to play audio through these speakers. One option would be to buy some sort of audio/Home theater receiver which has various audio and/or video inputs. You would need a cable that goes from 1/8" stereo to dual RCA style plugs. These will plug into an input on your receiver and then you would connect your speakers to the receiver. The receiver processes the audio signal and takes it from your phone to the speakers. Some newer, higher end, receivers have built in bluetooth technology. You still still connect your speakers to the receiver but the iPhone will connect wirelessly via bluetooth connection and stream the audio signal. You could also buy a stand alone amplifier and use an 1/8" stereo cable that converts to whatever style plug is required for input on the amplifier. Wire your speakers to the amplifier, set the gain low and use the iPhone volume setting to regulate volume on the speakers. If you need more volume you can increase the gain. These are the most basic ways to connect your phone and have it play audio through these speakers.
