    once broken in these things really do sound amazing. the bass gets deeper and sharper the longer theyve been broken in. the highs are the same way. for the price you really cant beat them.

    Great bookshelf speakers. Just had my Sansui 9090DB completely restored. These Klipsch handle the amplifier with clarity and depth. They will handle a large room easily.

    This bookshelf speaker set is awesome. It broadcasts sound in an almost 180° sound stage which gives each speaker room filling capabilities. Even run at 25 watts each speaker has room filling capabilities I can't imagine how loud these could get at the full wattage that these speakers can handle. Each speaker weighs a significant amount which gives then a very premium feel and the casing is excellent. The magnetic grill mesh is a nice touch that feels so much more premium than other speakers that have either no removable grill or grills that slot onto little rubber nubs.

    I always buy Klipsch and they never disappoint. I used to have 4 towers and decided to go a little smaller. Replaced 2 with these and can barely notice
