    I am very happy with this purchase. I was looking for a pair of moderately priced speakers for a small space. These speakers delivered. The sound is excellent, they look great, and the price was fair.

    Great speakers. Got at great price as an open boxed item. Couldn't be happier with them. To me they looked like a brand new set and sound great.

    This is my first purchase of quality home audio speakers. I first purchased the Polk T15's that were on sale for $70 and was happy. After having them hooked up for almost a month, I happened to walk into a best buy and listened to the RM15's and was blown away by the difference between the two in store. I was ready to return them later that day in exchange for the RM15's. Thanks to my laziness that day, i didn't go back immediately and was sent an email for an early sale for elite members. Low and behold, I got the RM15's for half the orignal cost. Will replace these with some new atmos speakers from Klipsch and use these as rear speakers when i have more funds.

    Replaced an old set of AR speakers with these. Wife wanted a small set of speakers. Klipsch never fails to impress. I have a seven 1 surround sound system in another room all Klipsch as well.

    These Klipsch speakers are all that the manufacturer promised. The sound is lush, and the clarity is excellent. I had no problems connecting them to my system, and they are beautiful. I use them in a 20X20 sitting room, so they help to envelop me in sound from my TV and music. These speakers are my first Klipsch purchase, so I will probably make a major purchase in more Klipsch speakers as I upgrade.

    Klipsch is known for quality and excellence. The speakers do not disappoint. I purchased them at Best Buy after looking all over online and Best Buy had the best price! I went to my local store and the staff was extremely helpful and I tested the speakers and listened to them on their sample display - where you could punch different buttons and hear different speaker set ups and the Klipsch blew every other type of speaker away hands-down!!! it wasn't a question for me about buying the speakers and I've been extraordinarily happy with them. (I use them with my turntable stereo setup.) Thanks Best Buy!

    I bought 2 pair of the R15M klipsch bookshelf speakers for my 7.1 surround sound system. Use 2 for back surround and 2 for mid surround. Got them half price on black friday sale. 2 pair for regular price of 1 pair. Love the clarity and the sound. They make my surround sound sing. Mounted all 4 using bookshelf mounts. I can't not want to turn up my surround system on movies. Love my Klipsch best investment I've made. Bought the R280F for my fronts the R series center channel and the 10in. sub to boot. Great sound worth the money.

    The speakers have a very clean and sharp sound. From the high notes to low bass tones the sound is amazing from bookshelf size speakers.

    After looking over several reviews and comparing models in the store, I believe this speaker had better sound balance and clarity that matched my existing setup which is also Klipsch. The other model that I was comparing this one too had too loud of voice and I felt that it would overpower the voice projecting from my front speakers. Additionally, this speaker has a nice bass which compliments the existing setup better than the other models. I would recommend comparing them in-store so you can hear the difference between the models that they have available.

    Klipsch R-15M's

    I am using them as fronts in my surround system. The are great, crisp, clear. I do recommend them to anyone with a surround setup. Although I also think a sub is needed. These are a perfect match for my system. It is now an inexpensive, but great sounding. That would due to buying the receiver, sub, fronts & rears on sale at Best Buy!! I have to admit, I did not buy the center from Best Buy because they didn't have what I was looking for. I am very picky when it comes to stereo equipment. I have been since the 70's.

    needed some new surround speakers as my newer yamaha amp also purchased here was 7.1 and i was coming from 5.1. amp was much more powerful than the onkyo i had so my girlfriend blew up the boston accustics i had, of course were rated for 40 watts not the 100 from the yamaha. so i went to the store and did some listening and reading and bought these bookshelfs to see how i liked them, they were awesome and really surprised me on what i had been missing in sound and quality in the rears. now saving my pennies for the front standing units to match the rears

    I’ve had these speakers before I bought these. I recently sold my house and let the new owners keep them as I didn’t want to leave them with empty speaker brackets on the walls. I replaced them with the same speakers in my new house because they sound amazing. Can’t go wrong with a 1/2 off Black Friday special! I have the Klipsch floor speakers for my mains and 4 of these for my surround and rears and a Klipsch center channel. With my sub and an Onkyo receiver they are crispy clear and play LOUD!

    I was wanting to add surround speakers to my Klipsch system and the ones I wanted were $300 a piece. Well can’t afford that now, so I saw some people used these for their surround while reading reviews and they loved them, so I figured on sale for $180 for the pair and I got my surround complete. I was skeptical being how inexpensive they were and let me tell you, they are awesome! I am super pleased as I am with the rest of my Klipsch set up! Will always be a fan!
