Klipsch R-51M Bookshelf Speaker (Pair), Black

The r51ms are used to compliment my klipsch rp500m speakers and a 12 inch subwoofer in a large living room. By placing the r51m speakers to the outside walls , and the rp500m speakers to the interior, closer to the amplifier, and with the subwoofer set on deep bass only at just enough volume to barely compliment the sound, the large living room is more than sufficiently covered with at least true high fi quality sound, if not true budget audiophile sound. My entire 2.1 system is all klipsch. That's how I want it.I am using them with a high powered tube amplifier, so presence and clarity is awesome. Placement is critical. I was initially disappointed until I switched the r51ms to the spread to the outside walls position, and the rp500ms to the interior, closer to the amplifier. The difference was remarkable. The 2 different klipsch speakers, ie one a rp and the other a r series blend together perfectly with no clash whatsoever because of somewhat more refined sound on the rp500m speakers. The rp500m speakers do sound higher end , but they are supposed to, but with the speakers as outer r51m and inner rp500m, and the klipsch subwoofer at deep bass with just a touch of volume the result is sound of such quality that I can honestly say I can be content and satisfied with it. I can say my system is complete, and no further improvement, upgrades are needed. Tower speakers as primaries are not necessary because of the high quality of sound and the high sensitivity of the 4 klipsch bookshelf speakers and klipsch subwoofer. This saves me money during this rapid inflation period of time. I could easily say that what I have sounds more than good enough to be satisfied and content with without any desire to upgrade further at this point.Shipping speed was excellent via Amazon itself, and the box and speakers arrived in handled with care and new condition.I am not disappointed at all now that the r51m speakers are the outside speakers, spread apart from corner wall to wall to compliment the interior placements of my rp500m speakers by klipsch. Im all klipsch here and I love it. 5 stars categorically. As previously stated, I see no need for primary tower speakers, even in a large living room, and that equals high quality sound and savings of money at the same time. I recommend these speakers. They do more than just do sound quality wise.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Very pleased with this speaker. It is way better than my expectation at this price range. I reviewed also much higher price Kef R3 Meta which may be better sound for some but cannot beat the price of this Klipsch speakers. Use these as main front speakers in a surround sound set up with Denon receiver. The sound is fantastic for listening to music or watching movies. Highly recommended for quality and pleasant sounds which does not break the bank.

These are excellent quality!

I am an Amazon customer from Kuwait. Amazon delivered earlier than the date they had offered. I am a big fan of Klipsch; it is a very trustworthy brand in terms of quality and build. Most of the time, I purchase from local electronic shops in Kuwait at the best prices, often with some discounts. However, this model was out of stock in Kuwait, so I decided to purchase it from the United States through Amazon. As a customer, I am very happy with this speaker. It delivers excellent sound quality, and I am looking forward to buying other Klipsch speakers when the prices come down.
