Crisp, Powerful Sound

I really like these speakers, although sound quality is just short of excellent. Let me clarify...I have no doubt they sound excellent for this price range. If you spend twice as much, you MIGHT get better sound; I'm just very cheap, & very picky! The thing I like about Klipsch is their products usually have by far the best sound for the price. It's just that I was hoping for a little more fullness in the midrange frequencies. Vocals aren't quite as rich as I had hoped. However, with most genres this is not really noticeable. Sound is VERY crisp & clear, but not overly bright (for my taste), with excellent bass. These speakers have way more power than you need for a desktop! When trying out in-store demos, I thought the Bose Companion 20 speakers sounded richer/fuller, but they were also a lot more expensive. I also don't think they pack as much punch on the low end. For $150, I'm happy with my choice of Klipsch. If you can find them for less than that, grab them--you won't regret it.
As far as quality, I've had no issues. I was worried by all the reviews complaining about the defective plug connector on back of the sub, but so far mine works perfectly. I haven't moved it around since setting it up though, so I'd advise caution if you do. Simple knobs for subwoofer & main volume work as expected & have a smooth feel. Hope this review helps! Other thoughts: a gold-plated 1/8" connector would've been a nice touch.

What's great about it: Best sound you'll get at this price
What's not so great: Midrange/vocal frequencies could be richer
I would recommend this to a friend!

Convenient option with decent sound

This kit is an excellent value and great for those rooms where surround wires are impractical. They power my Klipsch Quintet speakers nicely, although I think the sound quality may not be quite as pure as with conventional wires. I can hear a trace of white noise from speakers when powered on. Also, I'm having trouble calibrating my speaker system; I get an error message when doing the auto calibration, and I think this is due to a delay with the wireless receiver. I'm sure there's a way to correct for this, just haven't had time to figure it out. However, movies & music sound great, and I like the volume control to increase or decrease surround volume. I wish it had binding posts or some better connection for wires--this seems kind of cheap. Oh well, for the price you can't go wrong. You could easily spend this much on speaker wire for a large room, not to mention the extra work installing it!
What's great about it: Easy setup, good value
What's not so great: cheap spring-clip connections, sound could be better
I would recommend this to a friend!
