To this day, I've never had any difficulty reviewing Klipsch speakers as all of my main speakers are and have been over many years, Klipsch, so I kinda feel I just might possess enough "street-cred" to give them a worthy review. Presently, I'm using a Denon AVR x4800h receiver with 125watt/channel to run my 7.1 main zone in our living room, which, IMHO, is outstanding, but I needed a pair of really nice quality speakers for my patio, because sitting out there listening to the sub-par Bluetooth speakers just isn't cutting it anymore. I did take my time and spent a lot of it looking around for the right speakers because, I know the good ones, at least to me, can be and usually are a little pricey and then may or may not deliver the waves you were hoping for. Fortunately, I found these on Amazon, and at 53% off, that's an O.M.G! in my book. And what a perfect addition for the patio! It didn't take me long to unbox (which the boxing alone was excellent), install and crank the juice to these impressive, Klipsch speakers. The Denon has additional Zone options which allows one to wire speakers in different areas and use all the amplifier's options to run them. Suffice to say, these exceeded my expectations, and they were high as I expected and was hoping for another great experience coming from "The Keepers of The Sound." Without a doubt, everything from the killer bass to the Mids and Highs, all were absolutely outstanding! I spaced them approximately 15 to 20 feet apart, angled slightly downwards since they're not exactly at listening level, but after all was said and done, the sounds meld together so perfectly that they give the impression they're mounted directly behind my head and my tympanics are doing the "soft-shoe" dance. I have a need for my music to be clear, crisp and usually loud, and that also means it has to have as little of distortion as possible, so it becomes an almost a spiritual experience instead of a fatiguing one. Again, the clarity with zero distortion at the loudness I play them, not to mention they're suitable for outside use and should be able to withstand almost everything Mother Nature has to throw at them, which is another impressive attribute. For my review, I couldn't give them anything but my highest recommendation for price, style, quality of outrageous sound across all 3 spectrums, and knowing they were made by, again, the Keepers of The Sound, it's a safe bet, these will last and provide great neural sensations for many years to come. 5 Stars all day long for all the above.
