klipsch Reference Premiere RP-600M II Ebony Bookshelf Speakers

Top notch, highly recommendedIf you wanted to own a entry level HORN speaker, do not look any furhter.Buy this from amazon. periodHorn speakers have Pro and cons. and good Horns speakers cost a lot of money that i may regret.so i decided on getting this from amazon.in my opinion, this are top notch speakers to get into a Horn loaded speaker. if you like its sound, then you keep itif not, just return it.this speaker is now one of my collection representing Horn speaker. it is well review (just google it)however it is NOT my reference speakers in general. i still like traditional cone based speakers and this Klipsh speaker cost is too inexpensive to run against my reference Voxativ Hagen speakersoverall- I highly recommend this speaker and if you are into horns (which i am not) go ahead and purchase their Cornwalls.

I was really intrigued by the four prong rear set-up and immediately liked the potential for wiring in parallel or series. I was struck by another s post " these mii' s REPLACE my 20 year old Bose ". Check this out: I have a pair of Bose Interadio 4000s from the mid 1990s. I did my homework. You can not do series wiring with two unlike speakers because it will goof up the crossover (s). I currently have a yahama RX - V 465 with a minimum impedance of 6 ohm. Two 8 ohm equals 4 so ... It's dicey. I have my eyes on the yahama RX A6A which - for the front s ONLY have a minimum impedance of 4 ohm. LOL... I hit the sweet spot jackpot!!! This way I can keep to my vintage roots and create synergy. The interadio have 8 inch woofers and a 3 inch paper tweater. The mix of new and old is simply superb. Very very nice. It may be a marketing miss to think about ditching vintage for better and newer technology. There - from an old guy - is simply no replacement for displacement. Very very happy customer. The Klipsch ads the immediacy and highs that the Bose do not have. The Bose adds the vintage " air ". Don't hesitate on these speakers. I also decoupled all with acoustic foam on the bottom facing the wall. It makes more of a difference than you might imagine! The price keeps dropping over time. Again. Don't hesitate! I picked up the wide dispersion 500 ii' s reference premier series surrounds coupled with an elac debut 2.0 6.5 center. Looking to build a solid old school 5.1 system. Regards...

I chose the Klipsch rp600 II after too much deliberation. It really came down to the kind of music I listened to mostly progressive rock. I love IQ , Threshold , Genesis, Yes, IZZ.So decided on bookshelf speakers that really rock.Then a funny thing happened I started listening to Amazon HD music 1960s jazz a lot of vibraphone and xylophone and great quartets and I just fell in love with it. I'm using a wiim streamer the pro Plus.My research led me to the idea that I should tow these clips speakers out though the common methodology is to tow them in. Towed 15 to 20% out they create a bigger soundstage much more separation of the sindividual. Instruments. This is an easy thing to try and you'll be shocked as I was.

Having previously owned Energy Connoisseur bookshelves, I was worried these wouldn't be much of an upgrade, but I was wrong! Those now sound analytical compared to how much closer to the music I seem to get with the RP-600m II. Speakers have come a long way in the last decade and expectations are very high, so I understand if there are even cheaper speakers out there that perform close to the same and everyone is sick of seeing Klipsch everywhere.I also was hearing a lot of controversy or maybe just Klipsch burn-out in various forum comments, but these Reference Premier lines kick major ass. I mean this is Klipsch's high end offering, without being an over $2k boutique thing. The sound is BIG, both fairly open and very forward at the same time, great imaging, and has an American hi-fi "you are there" type of live Grado sound, but with much better frequency balance and perfect dynamics.For people concerned with the giant horns, the tweeter at the center is really only an inch and the receiver room correction actually ended up lifting the treble slightly, so I did not find them offensive in the slightest. Out of the box, they're more neutral than Klipsch traditionally has been, and take EQ very well (a sign of effortless reproduction and low distortion to begin with).The volumes they can hit with clarity with their high sensitivity are almost frightening. I have not had the nerve to get anywhere near distortion levels. They just rock super hard while still able to please an audiophile with the details, bring out plenty of the emotion of the recording and above all just want you to have access to a good time for less than a paycheck. I'm often looking forward to listening to them for hours, at any volume and at any time... as others have said, they play with good dynamics and still sound authoritative at low volume too.I've heard Sonus Faber and Genelec in showrooms, and Klipsch has definitely earned my respect at this price point.
