I can’t tell you how excited I am to have this on my desk
Sounds thick if that makes sense. Like peanut butter for your ears. Lol The speakers I’m running are Klipsch RP-500m ii and they can get kind of sharp at times. This kind of rounded them off and added some extra weight in the mids without stripping the Klipschs of what makes them good to me. Definit

For vinyl listening, may I ask the what you'd go with pertaining to Kef Q150/Q350 or Klipsch RP-600M ii.
Get both of you can float it. Try both in your room. Return the one you don’t like. I did that when I bought mine and ended up settling on the Klipsch’s little bro - the RP-500mII.

New temporary house setup
$220 is a great deal for the older model. The RP-600M II are a clear improvement, but not for that difference in price. Keep in mind that the RP-600M (both older and new models) are huge and will take up a large amount of desk space. OP has the smaller RP-500M II.

It’s apparently an expected behavior - Crutchfield’s return policy seems to have it built with just that in mind. Also, FWIW, and after looking at your current setup, American Beauty is incredible on my Klipsch RP-500mIIs. Bass heavier music might sound a little thin on them without adding a sub, bu

Im looking for budget speakers for a small bedroom
I’d take a look at the Klipsch RP-500M II. They sound fantastic for the money and, in my opinion, look great too. You’ll need to pair them with an amp, but their high sensitivity means they’re easy to drive. If you’re on a tight budget, I’d go with a WiiM Amp. It should handle them nicely, and you a

What's the best $500 you can spend?
At 500$, my top 3 would be : Adam T5V ELAC DB63 Klipsch RP-500M II (No particular order, choose whatever you prefer).

Hi, to start things off, I know nothing about how to properly hook up nice speakers, and I’ve just been gifted a set of Klipsch Rp-500M speakers. These are replacing what I can only describe as Sony boombox speakers from the late 90’s, so a big upgrade. I also received some 14/2 speaker wire to go w

Dj monitors paired with my Yamaha A-S501 ?
You have a solid reciever amp already, so you really don't need powered monitors. Get yourself some normal high fi book shelf speakers. Not sure of your budget, but I would suggest looking at the following and then picking up a powered sub as well. Elac Debut 3.0 63Klipsch RP-500MDali Oberon

Am I getting carried away?
I have a pair of the Klipsch RP-500M II in another room, I enjoy their sound profile for the most part. But I have not heard any Klipsch Heritage yet. I would have a chance to hear these Cornwall’s before I buy since they’re local to me. I just don’t want to waste the seller’s time if it’s an absurd

Audio side quest
That is a large living room. Unfortunately the Klipsch speakers are rear ported, and I have mine on approximately 60 cm tall Target stands. I have an open plan main floor, my audio listening rig is at the top of the L in an L shaped floor plan where the long side of the L is approximately 14.7m long
