Customer Ratings & Reviews

If there is anything you need to know about speakers, then its this. This brand is one of the top retail options out there without breaking the bank. I recently installed a surround sound system and added this center channel into the mix. The center channel speaker is build very sturdy and is capable of pumping out some serious sound. The speaker it self is as straight forward as possible as it only has 2 speaker inputs on the back which makes it super self explanatory for any future DIY surround sounders out there. Assuming that the speaker is properly plugged into the correct respective outputs on your receiver then you should be good to go. The base is deep and the treble is as crisp as can be. One small thing I would change would be the height, my previous center channel is a smidge smaller and still pumps out comparative sound. All in all, if you are looking for a very solid, retail speaker set and unit then I would highly recommend this and any accompanying speakers for your future set up.

Really like the sound quality and ease of setup. Good value.

Great center channel The sound that comes out is great and so clean and looks great

This center channel has been a great addition to my system. I replaced a small Yamaha center speaker that originally came with a 5.1 surround sound bundle, and the difference was immediately noticeable. Dialogue is much clearer and fuller, especially at lower volumes, and it blends well with the rest of my setup. This was the first speaker I upgraded, and it really helped bring my system up to snuff. For the size, it delivers impressive output and clean sound without being overpowering. If you’re still using the stock center speaker from a home-theater-in-a-box setup, this is a solid and worthwhile upgrade from Klipsch.

This review is for the following 7.1 setup: Onkyo TX-NR6100 receiver Klipsch R-101SW subwoofer Klipsch R-30C - center Klipsch R-40SA - height surround Klipsch R-50M - back surround Klipsch R-600F - front speakers It was time to upgrade my 20 year old 5.1 system that didn't really have much bass to the latest technology. Let me just tell you, huge difference. Speech comes through nice and clear in the center channel. This has got to be the best 10" subwoofer I have ever heard. It completely fills the whole room with bass. No weird distortions from the speaker or box, Just awesome bass. You can control the bass with the gain and low pass knobs on the back to get the perfect punch that you want. You can also put it on standby mode so that it will shut off if it doesn't detect any sound. Speakers arrived on a palette. The boxes made them seem larger but it was just good packaging. The grill came with some packing behind them for protection. The grill is also magnetic except on the subwoofer, so they are really easy to remove and put back on. On the back of the R-600F it has two connections at the bottom. The main and the height. You can connect your R-40SA with supplied cables to the Dolby Atmos connection in one of the pictures as long as you have wires running to the height connection at the bottom. I have included pictures that show the vinyl up close and they look great with the copper colored speakers. The tweeters on these speakers let you stand anywhere in the room and still get about the same awesome sound. The copper colored speakers provide a nice mid-range. Each speaker on its own doesn't do much but when you combine them all it is audio bliss. Sounds just come from every where while watching a movie and the explosions make you feel like you are in the scene. I can actually hear things in songs I didn't hear before. Even at high levels they still sound great. You will not regret this purchase. Really happy to own this setup.

El mejor center Chanel que he comprado, buena fidelidad, voces se escuchan perfectamente

I have a larger version of this speaker in the home theater. Love it. This is not that but it does provide excellent sound in a smaller package. If you are looking for a space saving center channel with great clarity, look no further. Exactly what I wanted in the family room. Bought open box. Great price.

My 20 year old sub woofer died yesterday, so today I refreshed my home theater setup with a 12" Klipsch sub, a pair of 5¼" bookshelf speakers for fronts and this center speaker. I can now hear the dialog without having to ride the volume up and down. My old stuff was 20+ years old and served me well, but the Klipsch line is next level. After calibrating everything, I started playing the first 15 minutes of several movies and was totally blown away. I was only going to get a new sub, but thanks to awesome BB Black Friday deals, I went all-in. Now, my home theater system sounds as good as if I were sitting in a theater. I run them all through my Denon X-3711 AVR. I highly recommend Klipsch, who put out high-quality products!

Fantastic speakers for a home system. Plugged into an Onkyo tx-nr646 and they sound fantastic and im barely pushing them. I also picked up banana plugs to plug in all the wires, I've just shoved them in the screw holes in the past but wanted to do it right with these.

Ohh man when you see bronzy/gold base with a nicely polished wooden frame, it screams awesomeness! Im a happy camper with this purchase. The sound is what we pay for, aside from the cosmetics. Ya def recommend, the accoustics & base are well balanced & the money you fork out, isn't regretted, def recommend!

Plug and play. I like that it is passively powered and doesnt require external power. Sounds great too. I got the open box from a local store, has no visual or material defects. I paired it with two reference speakers for a 3.1 setup. Upgraded from a 5.1 sound bar setup, very happy with it so far. Voices are much clearer compared to the soundbar.

Great sound! I was in need of a center channel speaker that was small enough to fit my entertainment center. This exceeded my expectations.

This works great for my entertainment setup. Very satisfying with the quality of the product.

I had been using the previous generation R-34C center channel since it came out in 2018 was content on keeping it for as long as I could. It sounded great, but at times, voices and music felt tinny, harsh and confined. I saw that Klipsch had recently came out with a new generation of reference speakers that had “trickle down” technology from their reference premier line. I read multiple positive reviews about how much better the sound quality was from the previous generation due to updated driver materials as well as new horn loaded tweeters. I decided to stop at Best Buy and purchase the new gen center channel as well as the new R-50M’s to go with it. If I wasn’t I could always return them. If need be. After connecting the new speakers to my Denon receiver, I was sincerely and truly amazed by how much better the sound quality was. There was not a hint of screeching/over-sibilant highs or muddy lows/mids. Everything was perfectly balanced and smooth and had excellent clarity. They sound MUCH bigger then they are. They also sound as good if not better then more expensive brands. The new horn tech has definitely improved, and I can actually hear so much more detail when watching movies and listening to music. Klipsch absolutely nailed the new generation reference line.

First off, if you're just getting into home theater these work just, It wasn't bad but like I returned it a couple days later. My issue that I found was just it really couldn't handle a lot of stuff going on at once things started to get lost or it just started to get harsh to listen to. If you listen in a quietly, it's probably much better, but whenever I'm spending this kind of money, it's so I can listen to it at a fairly decent level. If I hadn't been in audio for as long as I have it probably would have been fine but I just picked these things apart listening to them.

Great quality; highly recommend. It is a great addition to our surround sound set.

I was missing this part of my overall sound and didn’t realize it until i bought it. Great quality as well. A bit pricey but worth it

Its awesome, it looks great and sounds even better.

Great center channel speaker. More voice than bass which is what it’s supposed to do.

Great sounding center speaker to complement my existing large floor Klipsch speakers. Impressive sound and good compatibility with my old Klipsch speakers.
