Klipsch B-3

A regular occurring theme with Klipsch speakers is that you can expect performance quality speakers in all of their ranges, so the B-3 fits in nicely with the synergy series. Its stylish titanium look is a real draw card for the fashion conscious...

Klipsch Synergy B-3 Bookshelf Loudspeaker Reviewed

Like many Klipsch products, the Synergy B-3 is "easy to drive, has a forward and aggressive top end, tight bass with moderate extension and a good but not particularly wide soundstage. Appearance wise, the B-3s "offer an excellent fit and finish, with...

The Klipsch B-3 bookshelf loudspeakers offer an excellent fit and finish, with some unique cosmetic accents that you will not find on more traditional or bland loudspeakers in the B-3's price range ; The Klipsch B-3's are very easy to drive, with a...

To my ears, the Klipsch B-3s aren't really neutral in their overall flavor. They have very good bass for their price range, but can be a little forward in the highs, compared to more audiophile-oriented speakers. Klipsch customers don't come to Klipsch...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

For the money, I should have stayed with Polk.

I bought a pair of B-3, since the price went down, I have them hooked to Pioneer VSX-919 120 w/ch. Copmared to my M-40 set, from Polk, I found the M-40 to have a clearer sound and a deeper base. although the B-3 have more sensitivy, I found the sound...

THE B-3 Set Looks nice with and w/o grill ; The sound: Bright, Loud at low columes, Strong and warm

I Missed the clarity of Polk,.. may be it is only me, but I was somewhat dispointed. I prefer the sound of the bi amped M-40 over the more expensive B-3, which by the way is not Bi Ampable ; No Bi Amp Capability

I like 'em...

Skeptical at first about purchasing speakers I've never personally heard. Owned the Promedia 2.1 for 7yrs. and enjoyed them very much so I figured a component setup should sound better. Gotta say, these B-3's are amazing! Have them hooked through an...

Simply amazing. I've listened to bottom to middle of the line Polk's and they're no match for the B-3

Excellent!

Newegg got them to my place in a day and with free shipping!

These make perfect L/R speakers for my 7.1 system! The high's and mid's are incredible. I've turned my sub off and put these speakers on full just to check out how they are on there own and it's surprising just how good they sound by themselves. The...

The are the highest price of all the speakers newegg has available in the bookshelf line. However you really get what you pay for and Klipsch really knows how to make quality home stereo components. If you're an audiophile with a budget, you can't get...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

really good but just a little expensive

I have these as my bedroom speakers (all my speakers are Klipsch). I run them with an H&K receiver and a Polk PSW111 8 inch sub. The combo is more than I could have wanted for a bedroom setup. Setup sounds great for everyday music. I so just want to...

These actually sound really good. They can easily fill a small to medium sized space with some really great sound. When used with a sub they sound even better ; For this price, dont settle for the " It's got no highs, it's got no lows, it must be

They can sound a bit "bright" when certain amp/receivers. Just make sure to adjust the treble if needed ; You could get the reference versions of these for just a few dollars more
