klipsch Reference Premiere RP-600M II Ebony Bookshelf Speakers

I recently added the Klipsch RP-600M II bookshelf speakers to my home theater setup, and they have been nothing short of impressive. These speakers serve as my surround sound channels, and they deliver a truly immersive audio experience.Sound Quality: The sound is punchy, clear, and surprisingly accurate for their size. The detail they bring to soundtracks and dialogue is fantastic, with a rich midrange and crisp treble. Even in a surround sound role, they manage to bring a lot of life to the system. I can absolutely see why people use them as primary speakers too. They’re well balanced and do an excellent job at filling a room with sound without being overpowering.If you’re using them as primary speakers, I’d definitely recommend pairing them with the Klipsch RP-1000 SW subwoofer to add some extra depth to the low end. That combination will really enhance the overall audio experience.Build Quality: The build quality is top-notch. The furniture-grade walnut veneer gives them an elegant, high-end look that will complement any decor. The speakers feel solid and sturdy, and they’re quite heavy, so if you're not placing them on a shelf, make sure you get a heavy-duty speaker stand to support them properly.Value: There are tons of positive reviews of the RP-600M II on YouTube, and after experiencing them firsthand, I can completely understand why. For the price, they offer some of the best sound quality you can get, making them a fantastic option in the mid-range speaker market. The performance easily competes with speakers that are priced significantly higher.In conclusion, the Klipsch RP-600M II bookshelf speakers are a standout in their class. Whether you're using them as primary or surround sound speakers, they deliver exceptional sound, solid build quality, and great value for the price. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to enhance their home theater system.

Having previously owned Energy Connoisseur bookshelves, I was worried these wouldn't be much of an upgrade, but I was wrong! Those now sound analytical compared to how much closer to the music I seem to get with the RP-600m II. Speakers have come a long way in the last decade and expectations are very high, so I understand if there are even cheaper speakers out there that perform close to the same and everyone is sick of seeing Klipsch everywhere.I also was hearing a lot of controversy or maybe just Klipsch burn-out in various forum comments, but these Reference Premier lines kick major ass. I mean this is Klipsch's high end offering, without being an over $2k boutique thing. The sound is BIG, both fairly open and very forward at the same time, great imaging, and has an American hi-fi "you are there" type of live Grado sound, but with much better frequency balance and perfect dynamics.For people concerned with the giant horns, the tweeter at the center is really only an inch and the receiver room correction actually ended up lifting the treble slightly, so I did not find them offensive in the slightest. Out of the box, they're more neutral than Klipsch traditionally has been, and take EQ very well (a sign of effortless reproduction and low distortion to begin with).The volumes they can hit with clarity with their high sensitivity are almost frightening. I have not had the nerve to get anywhere near distortion levels. They just rock super hard while still able to please an audiophile with the details, bring out plenty of the emotion of the recording and above all just want you to have access to a good time for less than a paycheck. I'm often looking forward to listening to them for hours, at any volume and at any time... as others have said, they play with good dynamics and still sound authoritative at low volume too.I've heard Sonus Faber and Genelec in showrooms, and Klipsch has definitely earned my respect at this price point.

We have a small TV room, but still want high fidelity. For example, I have Klipsch Cornwall III speakers in the living room, with 15" woofers. But my wife and I like to listen to music on YouTube and watch concerts given by our favorite artists. And we of course watch TV/movies/Blu ray.The TV room is too small for tower speakers for left-right, so I first bought the less expensive Klipsch bookshelf speakers. I decided to upgrade to the RP-600M II speakers, and I'm impressed with the overall improvement in frequency response, with better bass coming from the larger woofers.So for our TV room, I now have a nice Yamaha AV receiver, a Klipsch R-30C center speaker for dialogue, the two Klipsch RP-600M II speakers for left-right, and an SVS SB-1000 Pro subwoofer. The overall sound is fantastic.The rest of the system is comprised of a commercial-grade 4K 64" LG TV, because I don't need or want a smart TV, a SonyUBP-X800M2 Ultra HD Blu-ray player, and a recent-model Roku Ultra for streaming. Everything is all 4K. To turn on and off the devices and do the switching between devices, which is done inside the Yamaha receiver, I use a programmable remote, the Logitech Harmony Elite.But going back to the RP-600M II, great sound and with the Klipsch attention to aesthetics. As a music lover, I'm glad I upgraded to these speakers.

Wow is all I can say, I have never heard speakers so clear and punchy. They look great too. Believe the hype and buy a pair! I’m so glad I did!
