Klipsch R-41M Powerful Detailed Bookshelf Home Speaker Set of 2 Black

I bought these as part of my pandemic lock-down goal to have decent sound from my PC, as I was very dissatisfied with the performance of the Logitech 2.1 speakers I'd been using. My solution has been to connect my PC to an external USB valve DAC, feeding into a small 80W per channel solid state desktop amplifier, feeding into these Klipsch speakers. The difference is night-and-day. They might not be bass monsters, but they manage to produce a shockingly large amount of it for such small speakers. If your listening habits are mostly drum & bass, dubstep, or other bass-heavy material then you might want a subwoofer with these, but otherwise they manage just fine. Overall, they're a very crisp and clean sounding pair of speakers, with punchy, well-controlled bass and plenty of detail in the treble. Some might find their sound a little on the 'aggressive' or 'harsh' side thanks to those horn loaded tweeters, which is why I decided to use a valve based DAC to tame them a little, and it seems to have done the trick. Probably more of a potential issue for younger listeners - my middle aged ears are basically deaf to frequencies above 13kHz. And then there are the looks. Personally, I love how they look, and when I'm buying speakers that will be seated either side of the PC monitor on my desk's monitor shelf (with some sorbothane feet to help isolate them) and I'll be ~75cm away from them when I'm using them, the fact that they have a high quality finish and with that copper coloured driver look a lot less bland than most speakers... they look very good up close, and it's a definite plus. Nice touches like using copper coloured bolts to match the driver don't go unnoticed either.

I had these in my watch box for over a year. they came down 1/2 price and I bought them. I got to say, they sound great. crisp clear highs and lows.

Great sound ,looks great on the wall

neutral sound , bass a little shy but great considering cabinet and driver size

Superb sound for the money, being used as studio monitors in my home set up. Have added a cheap valve pre amp for when playing music direct from my pc to add some warmth to the sound.

If your wanting rich sound sound quality I would recommend these.hower a subwoofer would be required if your looking for bass aswell..

Very good sounds

Very good... using them as side speakers and they work well

I bought these to replace an old Infinity 5.1 speaker system I've had for at least 20 years. These sound really good. Hard to describe, but they sound "fuller". The bookshelf speakers are larger than I expected, but still small enough to fit where I needed them (barely). Used banana plugs to connect to my receiver. Great sound and great price. Very happy!

Klipsch reference line is a love it or hate it kind of speaker. Some find the highs to be a bit harsh and that can cause listener fatigue for some. Personally I am not affected by this so I find the speakers to be excellent. Find a local place to listen before buying if you can (my local Bestbuy has them on demo). This review is for the r-41m bookshelf speaker. I have two pairs as front and rear height channels in a 5.2.4 setup with 2 r620f towers, an r52c center, 2 r51m side surrounds and 2 r100sw subwoofers powered by a Denon avr-x4400h. I am not an expert by any means on speakers, so I cant give technical details about them, but from a casual end user I can say that I have been very pleased with the quality. Build quality is excellent, enclosures are well made and heavy, finish looks great and the copper tone woofer looks great in my house. Sound is great. I listen to just about every genre of music from classical to classic hip hop and everything in between. The speakers are able to accurately reproduce the music up to incredibly high levels with little to no distortion. Same goes for movies. Dialogue comes through crystal clear at all levels and the rest of the movies audio is reproduced excellently. I have the r41m speakers positioned high on the ceiling in front and rear of my main listening position (angled towards seating area) and right now have them crossed over at 200hz as that is typical Atmos spec since height/atmos channels do not need to reproduce much bass. Because of that I can't comment on bass reproduction from the r41m, but they do an excellent job producing the desired height effects for my setup. Ideally I would have used wide dispersion in ceiling speakers aimed down but I have a very high angled ceiling with an odd shape which ruled out both in ceiling and atmos upfiring speakers in my room. All in all I have been very happy with these speakers (and the other reference line speakers in my setup). I'd love to have some RP series speakers but I'm ballin on a budget. Look for 40 to 50% off sales occasionally and you can get some great deals on a great setup. I'll be buying another set of either these or the r51m when I'm ready to move to a 7.2.4 setup.

Excelente qualidade. Estou usando com um receiver Marantz 1200 e subwoofer ativo Yamaha. Minha única recomendação é utilizar um subwoofer também, pois as caixas possuem uma melhor resposta nos agudos e médios, mas nos graves não consegue atingir os melhores níveis.

Krachtige klank uit relatief kleine luissprekers. Hoge en middentonen zijn uitstekend en voldoende gescheiden. Deze luidsprekers bieden wel zo goed als geen lage tonen, maar dat is voor dergelijke luidsprekers ook niet echt de bedoeling. Deze moeten hiervoor in combinatie met een subwoofer gebruikt worden. De prijs was ook zeer aangenaam. Een zeer goede prijs/kwaliteit verhouding!
