    The sound and the punch from this little speaker is better than anything else out there in that size

    I had heard good things about these speakers, but now that I have them hooked up they have even exceeded my expectations. They are a great way to listen to our vinyl collection.

    From unpacking to relaxing, this speaker is five star! Audio is bright and crisp with plenty of punch if you so desire. I purchased two sets (4 speakers) for left and right front and left and right surround use. I also added the reference Center channel speaker. Be sure to have a solid stand(s) for the speakers as they are quite weighty. Considering price, Klipsch quality and sound, almost impossible to go wrong.

    Speakers have very clear sound. They're small enough to fit well in the room. Priced reasonably, too.

    I use these as the surround sound rear speakers in my home theater. What a huge impact when playing movies, and the rear surround when playing music is insane. Very efficient speakers. Had to actually turn them down in surround mode for movies. If you want to find out what real surround means, play "the beach landing scene from Saving Private Ryan" with the Klipsch speakers on a good amp. WOW, watch out for flying bullets. Even under water

    Quality Speakers That Deliver Enormous Sound

    I purchased these to complete a surround sound layout in my movie room and these speaker provide a full range of sound to create the immersive audio experience I was looking to accomplish. I have them running the surround left/right coming from the Denon X3300 Amp and I am very pleased. They are also pretty stylish in my opinion. They compliment my setup perfectly. I recommend to anyone looking for quality speakers at a great price.

    I have been a fan of Klipsch speakers for years. They have good quality sound. We remodeled our garage into an entertaining area and I knew I wanted Klipsch for the sound. They have higher end speakers available, but I had a somewhat limited budget, so this pair fit. Being bookshelf speakers, they didnt come with a mounting screw in the back. I was able to find wall mounts that clamp on to the base and sides.

    I bought these at the black Friday sale for half Price ($125), but I'd easily pay more than full price for these. I have them hooked up to my record player and it sounds so warm and lively. Also they look super sharp without the covers on and really complete my audio set up. They feel really durable and robust, not like some other cheap pair of speakers that feel like hollow plastic. I couldn't be happier with my purchase.

    I needed to replace my front surround speakers. I chose Klipsch because I am familiar with their quality. (I have Klipsch speakers hooked up to my computer). The cones are made of brass and look great so I was tempted to leave off the front screens. So in summary I bought for the quality sound and also got a pair of great looking speakers.
