Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great sound and quality for the price! These speakers were an upgrade to an older surround sound system. The main unit of my surround sound system is over 10 years old, but still a high performing unit. Yet, the speakers were well past their prime. The Klipsch speaker technology brought my home theatre experience back to life!

I purchased this along with two Klipsch tower speakers and I finally have a center channel delivers great sound and is not overpowered by the other speakers in my surround sound configuration. The construction of Klipsch speakers are fantastic and will likely never buy another brand again. Great value!

Really enjoy this center speaker from Klipsch. The sound is clear and crisp. So much easier now to hear the voices when watching movies now over the muddled sound of my old center speaker. The speaker cabinet might be a little large for some people's taste, but I would highly recommend it.

Purchased this to replace my old center channel and wow is it amazing. Worth its weight in gold. Great speaker

I actually thought I was getting the next model up from this, so I ended up taking it back and getting the right one. But I did hook it up before I realized this, and it sounds great. I was upgrading from an old HTIB center speaker, the difference is impressive to say the least. Voices are much more clear

I am not an audiophile but I do know this Klipsch center speaker sounds way better than the old entry level Technics speaker that has been replaced. Have not noticed the sound quality to be too sharp as some people have mentioned. Maybe that is because I purchased a store demo model and it was already broke in.

Replaced my small center speaker with this Klipsch and the sound improvement was amazing. Also makes a visual improvement of your home theater look. Keep the speaker cover off if there’s no chance of someone can hit the front. The metal finish and copper cones makes it look sharp. Nice design.

Unless you are hardcore about your audio, this (coupled with 8" reference towers) is probably the best speaker you could buy for your music and/or home theater needs. The Reference line of speakers essentially gives you Klipsch quality at big box store price. I did extensive research and listening tests since I'm not a baptized audiophile, and I'd guess these are about 90% of the speaker you would get if you splurged on a higher model, so great value. Re: this center channel specifically,it performs flawlessly. It is clear and crisp and does exactly what you'd expect it to in terms of being the main source of audio and making dialogue crystal clear. Last thing, don't buy this or any other Reference speakers at full price. If you can get them 50% off at black friday, do that. That's when I bought the complete 5.1 setup. They often go on sale as I've seen several price drops since that time. At ANY markdown, this speaker and others are a great buy. At the Black Friday price, it's a steal of a lifetime.

Upgraded my whole surround system to the Klipsch Reference Series. I wish I had done it much sooner. The audio quality from the center channel is so crisp and clear. I used to find myself constantly turning up the volume with my old system just to hear the dialog during a movie. Klipsch has won me over!

I have been linking modern tv's to my old stereo for years to get the sound via my old (but terrific) Advent Large and Boston acoustic A40 speakers. Then the receiver died (of multiple organ failure). With a new AV receiver, I needed a high end center to play the 5th channel- this unit has been great.

I moved into a house with matching front and rear speakers but no center channel. I debated upgrading my old center channel, but when the Best Buy team educated me on the value of a high end center channel I purchased this one to match my system. This was an excellent choice and exceeds my expectations

This speaker has totally transformed my listening experience. For the longest time I could not hear the voices in a movie. I always had to turn up the volume. No longer with this speaker. Voices are clear even at a low volume.

A bit more expensive than the other brands but well worth the money. Strong and clear speaker.

After buying a Klipsch sub a few years ago and being impressed I decided to upgrade my other speakers with Klipsch. I started with the center channel and it has a great sound that fills my average size living room without turning it up all the way. Glad I made the jump and bought this speaker

Its hard to write a lot about a speaker from Klipsch that always meets or exceeds expectations. The sound quality is great, excellent range Course any audio product is subject to the whims of the reviewer and the receiver that powers it, but Klipsch always sounds great to me.

This center channel speaker is from Klipsch's first Reference home theater system and it sounds amazing!!!

Was very impressed with the trial run that I saw in the store, very good buying experience.

Awesome center speaker for the price! Purchased when on sale.. Can't go wrong with Klipsch.

Adding this to my sound system was a great decision. I had 5 klipsch speakers already and used this to upgrade the center one. It made a dramatic difference and made it a lot easier to hear when people are speaking when other things are going on in the show or movie

My Klipsch - Reference Dual 5-1/4 Center-channel Speaker is part of my 7.1 surround sound system with two Klipsch tower speakers and 4 other Klipsch bookshelf speakers along with a 400W Klipsch Subwoofer, all controlled by a Denon 7.1 AV receiver. This is an awesome sound system.
