    Love them as Bookshelf Speakers - Not Surrounds

    I bought these to place as front heights. The mounts I had could not hold the weight of the speaker in a specific position, so I moved them up to my desk. Sound production was good as surrounds, but I could not get them positioned to stay, so they had to move to my desk. For L/R mains as computer speakers w/a 10" Klipsch subwoofer, these things work awesome compared to the Klipsch HD500 speakers they replaced. For full sound though you need a subwoofer to augment the LFE and lower end spectrum. Mid'/s and High's are solid with these bookshelf speakers.

    Typical horn tweeter for Klipsch, yes, a little on the bright side. Excellent for a movie 5.1 or 7.1 surround speakers or a desktop stereo 2.1 setup. Easy to drive with an entry level receiver or integrated amplifier. Sound quality improves with a more modest amplifier. Great value for the money.

    I use them as rear surrounds. For the money they are very good. Easily mounted and they came with rubber feet that easily stick to the bottom of the speaker.

    I got these on sale for almost 50% off and loved these speakers for that price. I would not have purchased at full price though. I actually returned them when the 5.25 inch model went on sale for $5 more than the 4 inch model. But I would have kept them if the 5.25 inch model did not become available at such a good sale price.

    Being a former live music venue manager I'm a little picky on what sound equipment I'll have in my house. I use these speakers as rear surrounds. They serve the purpose and then some. I made them wireless, which was easy and sound quality is outstanding!
