Klipsch Reference Home Theater Pack with 2X R-625FA Floorstanding Speakers, R-52C Center Channel, Pair R-41M Bookshelf Speakers (Speaker System + 2X Subwoofers + Receiver)

Excellent System. Delivered in perfect condition in one day. Lots of work to unpack but simple to assemble. The quality of Klipsch speakers with the Denon Amp are worth the money. You will spend a few days working with balancing the sound with Audyssey but there is lots of info on the web. AI has gone a long way. Awesome sound on movies - does a great job upgrading stereo sound (lots of streaming) to its own Dolby or DTS - Atmos is outstanding on movies, and nice settings to adjust sound for music as well (Atmos sucks on music). You can change settings easily with the remote. Spend a lot of time reading. It took me 3 days to get the sound with the help of Audyssey perfect. If the Amp ever goes bad - no worries because the Klipsch speakers will last forever. I have a big room and 1 sub was all I needed but they do have a kit with two.

I purchased these excellent Klipsh Reference speakers to build a new home theater with. I also purchased the matching Klipsch R-120SW subwoofer that pairs very nicely with these speakers. These Klipsch speakers sound great when connected to a Denon AVR-S760H AV receiver, which I also own. If these Klipsch speakers were purchased individually (not on sale) they would cost nearly twice as much as this 5 piece set, so this is indeed a great deal at this price level. These Klipsh speakers came very well packed, and UPS delivered all 4 boxes on the same day (5 day shipping time). These speakers also arrived in perfect condition without a single blemish. Just be prepared to have to dispose of lots of cardboard and Styrofoam after unboxing these speakers. However, the very thick Styrofoam surrounds protect these speakers very well during shipping. These Klipsch speakers definitely do have their own very distinct "Klipsch" sound. The one inch aluminum tweeters, matched with the Tractrix horns, make the treble very bright (the treble can be EQed down if desired). This sound is excellent for things like glass breaking and swords clanking in movies, but it can be kind of harsh for some ears when listening to a lot of music (which I do), if very bright highs are not desired. However, I personally like the clear, bright sound, and I do not find it harsh or fatiguing at all, but that is just my individual taste. The midrange is also very pronounced, especially in the center channel speaker, which is great for dialogue in movies. There is not much lower bass frequencies to speak of in the bookshelf or center channel speakers, but the front tower speakers will produce surprisingly good bass down to about 45hz. However, to really shine, these speakers really need to be matched with a good subwwoofer, like the Klipsch R-120SW, as it matches this Klipsch speaker set in both sound and asthetics. Be forewarned though, the front towers are very tall and heavy, at around 40 inches, and 50 pounds each. The tower speakers are also around 16 inches deep, so make sure there is plenty of room for them. These speakers are very sensitive, and it does not take much amplifier power at all to drive them loudly. All of the speakers have a sensitivity between 90db and 96db at 8 ohms. This is a huge sensitivity boost from the 5 (86db at 6 ohm) Pioneer Andrew Jones speakers that these 5 Klipsch speakers replaced. The Pioneer speakers sound great also, in a much mellower way, but it takes a lot of power to drive them. These Klipsh speakers are all very solidly built, and they sound great. They also look really cool with the grills removed. The copper looking woofers and mounting screws look really good on the dark gray speaker fronts with the black woofer surrounds. The Tractrix tweeter horns are also very unique looking. These speakers also have very nice looking, deep wood-grained, black vinyl coverings. The speaker grills are easy to take on and off, as they are held firmly in their cabinet recesses with strong magnets. However, the matching Klipsch R-120SW subwoofer has (copper looking) metal grill retaining studs on the speaker front instead of magnets. This is probably so that the grill does not vibrate off during very loud and low bass notes. The separate Dolby Atmos speakers on top of the 2 towers give a whole new dimension to movie and music sound. They bounce the sound off of the ceiling and into your ears to create a 3D sound effect (like helicopters flying overhead). The Dolby Atmos speakers work with Dolby Atmos and DTS-X encoded video, but they also work with the "multi-channel stereo" setting in most amps to expand music sound. Either way the Dolby Atmos speakers work great and add a whole new dimension to movies and music. The Dolby Atmos speakers are their own separate connection on the back of the tower speakers, so 2 separate speaker cables have to be run to each tower speaker from the amplifier. This means that an amplifier will have to have 7 separate speaker channels in order for this Klipsch speaker set to run properly (not counting a subwoofer pre-out connection). However, the tower speakers will still work fine if the Dolby Atmos speakers are not connected, but what's the point of having them then? The screw-down wiring terminals for all of the speakers are easy to use. However, it is much easier and more secure to use banana plugs. The banana plug holes also come with little plastic covers pre-installed, if they are not used. As mentioned in other reviews, the 4 screws that hold the 2 plastic legs on the bottom of the tower speakers are worthless. I did not even attempt to use them, and I used my own course-threaded, self tapping, black wood screws instead. Problem solved. However, the ol' candle wax or bar soap on the screw threads might help the original screws go into the cabinet's MDF easier, without breaking off. Overall, this is a great Klipsch speaker set, especially at this price point. I highly recommend these speakers. I personally like the unique, crisp (trebely?) sound of Klipsch speakers, but others may not. Potential buyers may want to find a retailer to give some Klipsch speakers a good listen before purchasing these (or any other) Klipsh speakers. Also, while these Klipsch speakers do sound amazing on their own, they really need to be paired with a good subwoofer (or two) in order to fill in the low bass that is mostly lacking in these otherwise great speakers. Have fun!

Great system for the price! I was a little skeptical about a 5.1 surround from Klipsch for this price. I already have a couple pairs of the speakers so I know they make a good product but the last set I bought cost more than this system for just a pair of towers. Most all of the reviews said they sounded really good. I liked that these were a little smaller because the room they are for is only about 10'x12'. They arrived quickly and were packed nice. Most of the reviews stated that the supplied screws to hold the feet on the towers were a low quality screw and several had snapped trying to install them. Having been aware of this before assembly, I had a few quality a wood screws and took one that was the same size and ran it into the holes on each speaker then used the supplied screws and they threaded in nicely. After setting every thing up to my receiver, that's rated at 75 watts per channel, I listened to them playing music from youtube on the television. They really sound amazing! Next I watched a movie that I'd seen several times. Listening with this system was incredible! I heard so much more than just listening through the TV speakers. Words and lines from the actors were clearer and made more sense. People talking in the background and other subtle sounds that I could here for the first time made me enjoy one of my favorite movies even more. The sub woofer adds a whole new dimension to the listening experience. Again don't let the smaller size worry you. It will absolutely shake the room!
