Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Speakers have a dialogue lift with my avr, meaning the center dialogue can get added & spread out to the atmos speakers. Now i have front and surround height taken care of.

The overall craftsmanship is very good at this price point. Thunder booms powerfully, lightning cracks sharply, you hear every individual rain drop. Sound is very clear and full.

My only issue is that these are very overpriced for what they are. I look forward to getting them properly worn in with the others to really make them shine. I just want to you to buy 1 now before they disappear, hurry up!

Power is through a very capable onkyo tx-nr777. I just b'ot the rp-404c, and that will complete my 7. Setup. The apps haven’t been updated for it yet.

Gen 2 is the same speaker big picture, just with tweaks to very subtly change the midrange. Klipsch's reputation and history speaks for itself. These are the goldilocks of speakers.

Quality

Great for my set up, and the dolby effects are very noticeable at any volume level.

Thunder booms powerfully, lightning cracks sharply, you hear every individual rain drop.

Atmos speakers are not designed to handle any significant bass, not even effectively down to 80 hz.

If you don't have the money, start saving and look for a sale, then buy them!

I'm not sure what kind of random super luck i had last week but i got these for $499 each along with a rp504c at $499 and a pai... Read More

I unboxed and set up all 5 speakers with my denon x3300w 105w per channel.

Klipsch rp-500sa dolby atmos surround sound speakers (piano black)8/8/2022:i was surprised how small the box was.

Competitiveness

I saw these speakers come up for sale and figured i would experiment with atmos speakers before replacing the onkyo, which is s... Read More

Also, especially with atmos, a total waste of money going with the gen 2 substantially more $.

There are many traditional bookshelf speakers that are much better performers for less money.

I guarantee if jbl was to ever get around to doing a similar speaker with their stage series it would be equal in performance f... Read More
