Title: Non-Professional Audiophile Says YES!
Review: Simply put, these Klipsch speakers hit the spot if you’re looking for a sound that’s accurate, satisfyingly clear and versatile. For reference, I’m a non-professional audiophile. Currently own the latest Sonos Immersive Set (Gen 2 Beam, 2 Eras Speakers for surround, plus the Mini Sub) in addition to the Edifier S3000 MKII’s which are hooked up to a WiiM Ultra (using as a DAC for endless sound customization and to hook them up to a sub easily) and the Klipsch R-100SW Subwoofer – both are phenomenal depending on the sound I’m in the mood for including music, movies, TV, etc. Nonetheless, when I saw these R-40PM’s on sale for literally 50%+ off, I gave in and bought them just to see… after all, they do play perfectly with my Klipsch sub. NO REGRETS. They fill the room wonderfully and give that classic Klipsch airy, wide-stage sound. It’s pure, satisfyingly full and warm. They get loud with ZERO distortion at any level in a 20×12 room hooked up to my Klipsch sub. I would not feel the same without the sub. They need it if you’re looking full-spectrum sound and want to play them loud. If you don’t want the added sub, I’m sure the larger R-50PM’s would deliver what you’re looking for. If you want to get the best sound possible when using with your TV, I strongly recommend getting a WiiM Ultra so you can get Dolby Atmos sound (converted to PCM Atmos). To do this, simply connect a high-speed HDMI cable from your TV to the WiiM Ultra, then use either high-quality RCA cables or an optical cable from the WiiM to the R-40PMs. You can then use the AI sound correction from the WiiM app to customize the sound perfectly to your room. Much much better sound compared to simply connecting the TV to the speakers via an optical cable. Hope this helps!

Title: Small Monitors, big sound
Review: Firstly, product arrived in short order from the other side of the country in great condition, less costly than was being charged by our local retailers. If this is indicative of the service provided by this business I would definitely patronize this retailer again!Secondly, wanted to upgrade PC audio from Razer Nommo that served me well but was a little overburdened trying to carry lows, mids, and highs in a very compact form factor (non-woofer option). The level up was more than expected; audio is full, warm, and clear all in the same package. Connectivity is varied and provides much utility, whether you want to connect wirelessly or wired, both options worked flawlessly. The option for a line out to a powered subwoofer answers any question you may have about limited low-end frequencies, but I’ve found that even at low volumes I get all the rich audio I was looking for.This purchase exceeded my expectations and I would definitely recommend these monitors to anyone looking for an affordable upgrade to their basic PC audio needs.

Title: Great
Review: Starters. Not to he considered an audiophile. I love music and speakers but i cant tell you what the graphs mean on the hifi forums.My living room 12 x 20 which is open to dining and kitchen and two hallways in a 3-2 apartment. Space is about 900sf for the open areas. These speakers filled it with sound.My ears however (taking my room into consideration as bright due to the windows, lack of wall hangings and soft furniture) found them to he harsh and fatiguing. Lows were exceptional, except during movie scenes they became muddy and washed out. Great speakers for music. Needs space for the horn loaded tweeter and not for bright listening rooms. I have had klipsh before in other settings that were larger and more absorbing. Great sound. Just need the right space

Title: Speakers sound great, but do not use them with an amplifier
Review: These speakers sound great. They work especially well when you use them through the Bluetooth connection with your phone. You can also use a wire connection with an Alexa. One thing to know – even though you can connect the speakers to an old-style amp, you do not want to do that. The amp connection makes the sound not work well.I have the speakers in my garage, and I love playing jazz out there with them especially.

Title: Amazing sound!
Review: We have gotten Klipsch speakers in the past and blown the woofers, but these ones have stood through our volume preference. They don’t even need a woofer, but still work great with one. Multiple connection options to be used on multiple devices without switching the plug back and forth like our older models. Sound is crystal clear and bumps!Plus they look classy.

Review: Film izlerken projektör sesini vermek için aldık. Küçük, sade ve şık. Bu markada tizlerin baskın olduğu söylenir ama en azından bu üründe durum öyle değil. (Ben belki de yaşım itibarıyla(45) biraz parlak ses seviyor olabilirim. Referans için JBL Flip6’lar aynı konumdan çok daha parlak bir ses veriyor ve kötü stereo pairing performanslarına rağmen müzik için onları tercih ediyorum.)Baş hizzasında değillerse tizler çok kayboluyor, o yüzden yerleşimini iyi planlamanız lazım. Bizde yer olmadığı için mecburen zemine koyduk(olabilecek en kötü yerleşim) ama karşısında kanepede oturarak film izlediğimiz için idare ediyoruz.Diğer ufak şikayetim, bluetooth bağlantısı sessizce kuruluyor. Yani bağlantının kurulduğuna dair bir ses gelmiyor. Sadece önündeki ledden anlaşılıyor.Ayrıca ilk fabrika çıkışında sesi o kadar kısık bırakmışlar ki, ilk kurarken bir süre ses alamadım ve ürün bozuk sandım. Ses düğmeleri de sesi azar azar artırıp azalttığı için(ki aslında bu çok iyi) ilk ses alana kadar bayağı bir basmak gerekti kumandada.Ses gecikmesi 150/200ms civarı. Film izlerken VLC Player gibi bir app kullanıyorsanız senkronizasyonu kolayca ayarlayabiliyorsunuz ama streaming hizmetlerde bu pek kolay değil. Ben duyarlı olduğum için farkediyorum ancak rahatsız etmiyor. Eşim hiç farketmiyor bile.Dinlemeden almayın derim.

Review: La calidad del sonido es buena, nítida, no se sienten intensos los agudos y los medios se oyen excelente. En el tema BASS no es que hagan un gran “boom” pero si puedes notarlos. Si quieres BASS potente tendrás que usar uno dedicado y ahí si, el sonido mejora bastante.

Review: These speakers are amazing for their size and price—the detail is incredible. A subwoofer is a must to truly capture the low end, and I’ve paired mine with an SVS subwoofer—the result is phenomenal. The sound is rich, dynamic, and incredibly satisfying.
