Customers are saying

Customers appreciate the exceptional sound quality, particularly the impressive bass response, of the Reference Series Dual 8" speakers. Many also praise the speakers' power handling capabilities and value for the price. However, some customers note that the speakers are large and heavy, and a few have expressed concerns about the durability of the feet. Overall, the positive feedback on sound quality outweighs the negative comments regarding size and weight.

    A little overwhelming when opening box

    I was little surprised when I opened the box regarding their size. Everything always looks smaller at the store. I hooked them up to my audio receiver and was a little disappointed at low volume. Then I turned up the volume and the world opened up in quality and spaciousness! I realized these speakers want power and lots of it. So be prepared to have the volume up to get the best out of them.

    The Klipsch Tower speakers are outstanding and excellent sounding speakers although rather tall and why they are still narrow and are slim enough to fit in most side Corners in alongside of most entertainment systems the sound is excellent where's the horn Twitter and the Dual 8-inch woofers and the tune duck port in the back makes this an outstanding stereo speaker as well as when you align it with a home entertainment system package with the proper amplification Equalization these speakers can match speakers costing twice as much I found them to be very quality worthy sound worthy and we recommend these to anyone who has thought about buying the elix the Triton ours or the JBL Tower speakers

    These sound great. Upgraded from small bookshelf Polk Audio speakers since I already had the Klipsch sub. They are pretty big, but look great in my setup.

    Tall Speakers with Beautiful Sound

    The Klipsch R820F speakers are tall floor speakers that provide a rich, immersive sound. They stand around 4 feet tall, so they aren't small by any means. If you have the room for them, these make great left and right speakers for surround sound systems. Pair them up with the rest of the Klipsch Reference II speakers for a complete 7.2 channel immersive surround sound system and you won't be disappointed.

    Exellent Speakers

    Amazingly clear sound, absolutely no distortion. The speakers are large so you may want to keep that in mind if the room you'll be using them in is small. We have them in our living room which is small-medium sized, and they almost look out of place because they are so large. But the sound quality is worth it. Overall we would buy them again.

    I bought a pair of these speakers and although I will say they are a little big, because our living room isn't the biggest, but it really doesn't matter. The sound quality makes it so worth it. My kids love watching movies now because we can put on the sound system and our kids never move.

    Are these the best speakers I have ever heard: No, but they are much much better than the speakers they replaced. It is very great to listen to tracks you have heard for years and hear things in the music that you never heard. Only con is size these are big speakers, but they sound great.

    A little overkill for my room but man these speakers rock! Just for reference ... they are really bulky and heavy. Make sure you have the space and two people to lift into the house. One person can manage but you don’t want to damage these bad boys.

    These are just incredible. They are quite big, but when paired with a 77" tv they don't look so huge. The sound output is amazing, yet well balanced by my denon receiver. Tremendous audio quality and the warranty is second to none

    Junk

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Not a warm sound.. These are the worst, highs need to be difused and are over driven. Mids are non existent and therefore the speaker has no stage. The 8 inch driver sounds like it is sitting in a sealed enclosure. The sound quality from narrow projection and an over driven horn is is very *fatiguing... 5 star reviews with people comparing these speakers agianst 20 year old sets with paper woofers and admitting the 820f falls short-But giving a 5 star rating. If you like huge cabinets, downgrading a 20 year old speaker and throwing away money. These are your speakers! Ironically I now know why these are 50% off. I am very disappointed I have 2 complete systems 16+ speakers all polk. This was my first venture with klipsch. I wanted to eventually push for all klipsch. Not happening! These underperformed warmth, projection, imaging vs polk rti70 17 year old speakers. There is the next issue when you realize these speakers are not for you. They are to big to conveniently return. Ease of use ' my wife could not be trusted to mount the legs turning product without damaging the product. Quality' I like the copper screws thats worth 1 star. Ease of use' not easy trying to tune a mid thats not there. Value' not worth it.

    Although these speakers are large they really don’t look bad at all and are not in your face so to speak. They have great sound! Absolutely love them. They are on the pricey side but worth it.

    These speakers are big. Make sure you have the room for them. I bought these for listening to vintage vinyl albums. Overall these are a bit bright but sound adjustments on the Yamaha brought that back a bit. The sensitivity is amazing so they sound stunning at low volumes. I would recommend these speakers as a great mid budget addition to a home theater or 2 channel stero set up
