Klipsch Quintet II review: Klipsch Quintet II

Klipsch Quintet II

Highly dynamic, detailed sound; efficient horn tweeter; extrapotent subwoofer; nice finish; sats have nifty integrated wall/shelf bracket.

Loose-fitting speaker grilles.

This entry-level home-theater package, with its expressive horns and punchy sub, kicks butt like one of the big boys.

Small Speakers - CanThey Do the Job?

As some of my fellow readers know, I've been using a stereo desktop speaker set (though a good one - Klipsch ProMedia 2.1) for my modest home theater system. Basically it consists of a PC running Vista Media Center and a modest sized LCD HDTV. My...

Flat-sounding frequency response up to the lower mid-bass, small size, 5 speakers in the

Lower mid-bass rolls off due to smaller "woofer" drivers

Room filling movie sound and a small Footprint

I purchased the Synergy quintet system for my bedroom and matched it with a Pioneer VSX-514 that puts out 100 watts per channel and am very happy with my setup.

Great for movies, take up very little space, come with a stand

Definitely need to be paired with a powered subwoofer, not the best for music

Great sound, clarity is outstanding

Would be better with Subwoofer as package

WOW.

There really isn't much more to say about these. I just bought the Quintet 2 set in white (I'd prefer black, but for $199 Canadian, I'll take white :) and they are phenomenal. I'm using a high-current Yamaha amp with only 60w RMS per channel and they...

Crisp, wonderful sound. Very distinct spatial separation. Good highs, excellent mids

4 of my 5 speakers are white (the center is black??). Oh well

Very good computer gaming speakers

I bought these speakers for use with a computer gaming system and I've been very pleased with their sound--in fact, so pleased that I got rid of the stereo system in my office and now use these speakers for all of my audio. The drawback--if you...

Good sound, nice looking package; small speakers. Great for a small room

Poor support for auxiliary inputs; no hardware control over bass/treble

Quintets are great but one blew already

I love the clear, crisp sound, but one speaker blew already on 100 Watt output from my Yamaha 1400 receiver (Note-be careful of cranking Paul McCartney's live 'America' DVD too loud during 'Live & Let Die'). My local retailer took good care of fixing it.

clarity and volume

1 speaker blew within a month

Accurate, Lively,Well Balanced Movie Soundtracks

After researching, and listening to high end, low end, and everything in between from Polk, Infinity, Bose, etc., I chose the Klipsch Quintet for my surrounds. I am still amazed this system only cost $400! What a great set of speakers! The highs are...

Accurate, Well Balanced, with a Quality feel. Worth every penny

Designed for home theater more than pure audio
