    Overall these are great. They look and sound great for music and movies. Sometimes they seem like they aren't putting out as much bass as I'd expect from dual 8" drivers, but I think that is mostly my receiver settings. only reason I didn't give 5 stars is I feel like the finish is finish on the sides and top is kind of cheap looking for a speaker of this caliber. I know it isn't real wood, but it good look better.. the lower line Reference series (R-820F) has a wood grain vinyl that actually looks and feels real.. this woodgrain looks poorly painted on.

    I am blown away with these speakers. Amazing clarity and they just don’t distort. Was nervous that they wouldn’t be loud enough but paired with my new Yamaha received they are loud enough for any late night jam session with friends. Sound amazing with movies too!

    These speakers are a great fit for the room that we use them in, and they sound great with our Klipsch center channel. We felt the price we paid for these speakers was fair and competitive. So far we have really enjoyed this product.

    These towers are beautiful. The piano black finish is flawless and perfectly complimented by the copper colored drivers. The copper accent on the trim ring around the woofers and horn is understated and very attractive. Most importantly, they sound as good as they look! The horn loaded titanium tweeters reproduce every subtle sound from the source recording with a light, airy, crisp feel that is delightful. From the sounds of cymbals as they slowly fade into the background to the sliding of fingers on guitar strings, these speakers don’t miss a detail. Even the static on old analog tape of Ella Fitzgerald recordings is there in the background. The dual eight inch woofers produce tight controlled bass when the recording calls for it (I.e. Yes - Owner of a lonely heart), deep booming bass when needed (Nelly - Oh Nelly), and accurate low bass notes of the double bass in classical recordings. Even though these are two-way speakers, the midrange is not neglected, but sounds open and free. Acoustic guitars sound like they are in the room. Vocals are accurate and even the breathy overtones on some tracks are there. Tom toms sound punchy and tight, but with appropriate decay. The bottom line: one could probably pay much, much more for a little better sound, but in this price range, these speakers will be difficult to beat. Of course, you should listen for yourself, because the Klipsch are sometimes described as “bright” or “forward”, and the sound may not be what you like. I much prefer the detailed, accurate sound of these speakers to the more muted, mellow sound of others. I think you will as well.

    About as Good as it Gets

    I have a pair of these tower speakers as my front speakers. They pair nicely with the rest of my 5.1 surround sound setup and provide excellent sound when watching movies or listening to music. Initial setup is as easy as it gets. Plug your positive and negative audio wires into the back and you're done. You also have the option to bi-amp / bi-wire them if you'd like. As a side note, these speakers are actually kind of heavy (~60lbs) and awkward to move around, especially on carpet. The finish on them also brings a more professional feeling to the environment. For initial testing, I used them by themselves and played music through them. As a standalone set, they provide a nice dynamic range and you don't even need a subwoofer to make your music shine. They can get plenty loud without compromising music quality. I was able to turn them up as loud as I could handle and there was very little to no distortion coming out of these speakers. I'm honestly amazed at how well they sound as well as how loud they can get. A 2.1 setup with these can really bring your movies to life. Afterwords, I plugged them back in to my existing setup to use along side the other speakers as intended. What a difference these made to my movie watching experience. All the highs and lows were clearly played through these speakers and I might even say could beat my local movie theater experience. I have absolutely no regrets after being able to personally experience and enjoy these speakers in my own home. If you're looking for a set of speakers that not only sound good but also look amazing, then these are for you. Whether you're looking to have a standalone set, or upgrading your surround sound setup, these Klipsch Reference Premiere speakers will not disappoint.

    This is an extremely good speaker that will help highlight the rest of the systems sound! I still can't believe how good it sounds no matter what you're listening to! I like to blast my music videos and hear how crystal clear everything sounds which is amazing! I've never owned a speaker even close to this as far as quality of sound and bass. I definitely recommend this speaker.

    These 2 way floor speakers are absolutely amazing. They do a very good job and producing theater quality sound and it doesn't hurt that they look beautiful with that piano black finish. They are very stylish and sound amazing. That's a combination that you shouldn't pass up on! I fell in love instantly watching movies with these floor speakers.

    I'm using these as the left and right in a Dolby Atmos 7.1 setup, and they're so powerful with the low-end that I almost don't need a subwoofer in my setup! I could see these working well simply as the left and right in a "stereo" setup because the quality and volume are both equally good (no distortion at very high levels). I used a live concert video and turned the sound up (for testing purposes, of course) and it felt like being there.

    Ordered sub woofer along with this. It’s been a month they didn’t deliver. They don’t let me cancel it online or in store. I have no idea when I will get the sub woofer or my money back.

    Best sounding most beautiful speakers I have

    First things first, these speakers are monsters! They are very large and very heavy. Only get these if you have the room for them and you want to dedicate a large footprint. If you do, then you will not be disappointed. They are simply gorgeous speakers, piano black with a magnetic speaker grill. The legs stick out on the bottom and they just shine bright. They are so glossy that they are very easy to dust as well. Even my wife thinks they are good looking speakers and she hates big bulky speakers. Now the sound...WoW! These speakers offer full range sound and they deliver just that. When hooked up to a proper receiver with good power output, these things will rock the house. I absolutely love listening to them. I now have them as part of a surround sound setup as the front left and right speakers. I never really noticed the sound from the L and R before, they were usually just kind of there. But these make you notice them and you can hear the detailed sound that emits from them when watching movies. You have to hear them to appreciate them. I cannot recommend these towers enough, you simply cannot go wrong.
