Excellent speakers for your computer

These are truly excellent speakers for your computer setup. All the sound is there and it's crystal clear. I haven't stress tested this system at very high volumes, though, since it has way more power than needed in the near field setup on my desktop. Klipsch recommends setting the volume control on your computer at 70% and then regulating volume with the knob in the speaker control module. I set my computer on 60% and have only got the speaker volume slightly above zero on the speaker itself. I use it for listening to music while I'm working on my computer. Subject matter is mainly classic rock, blues, and space/ambient/new age type music. (As I write this review, I'm listening to Quiet Resonance, a new age type artist that happens to be my next door neighbor. Check him out on YouTube, bandcamp.com, and Echoes.org podcast. No commercial involvement, I just like his music.)
A couple of minor quibbles:
1) The high end is very forward. I think this is due to the horn driver. Easily handled by just rolling off the top end using the EQ on my computer.
2) The speaker enclosures are permanently mounted on stands that tilt them up slightly. This is not ideal for my setup because my speaker location is above my head level. I worked around it by propping up the rear of the stands on 35mm film canisters (remember those?).
3) I don't know if this is a fair comparison or not, but this Klipsch system does not have the "atmosphere" that my dear departed Altec Lansing ADA305 system had. That was a direct/reflecting speaker setup that I really enjoyed for the 20 or so years that I had it. It had a much wider sound stage than this Klipsch setup, but it was specifically designed for that.

Other equipment I own that forms a basis of experience for this review includes Carver electronics, Boston Acoustics speakers, and AKG 240 headphones, in addition to the aforementioned Altec computer speaker setup.
Even with the small quibbles I mentioned, I still feel these Klipsch speakers deserve a rating of 5 stars. I am completely satisfied with this purchase, and hope these speakers last as long as my Altecs did.

Audiophile quality from the computer!

Replacement for a failed system. These are so much better, I'm literally blown away. The subwoofer adds so much, but has a small footprint, 10 x 11. Very clear, great sound. Sorry I waited for my old speakers to die.
