I just love the fact that you include demo sounds in your videos, as compared with the other reviewers/audio enthusiasts, your videos are actually not boring.
My usual advice is introduce yourself to your neighbors right away. Play music and ask it its bothering them.. Exchange Numbers. That way the police get called second. Plus you may make a movie night friend.
Haven't watched the review yet, but I have been planning on using these for a few years (when I eventually build my home theater). Glad a relatively large and trusted review got a set finally!!
I’m so glad y brought up the comb filtering…. Just as u started talking about putting them the other way… I was saying that in my head then u touched on it… MY MAN!!
Please try this with your big setup. One of the coolest parts of these speakers is that they're CERTIFIED for THX Reference levels and will happily take a beating. Let them stretch their legs, they really shine with space! The imaging will mess with you, things behind you with the speakers spaced away will make you do the shoulder check. Give it a shot. EDIT - Toid / 123TOID did a DIY video cloning the 650s so you can bang out a pair for ~500.
I got lucky and got 3 kl-650-thx a couple years ago on market place they replaced my MK S-100B and I was blown away watching movies. They are ported so I think they sound a little better than the sealed for music. Great job z keep up the good work.
Thank you Zeos for getting out the message that needs to be had: For Home Theater, one wants projection, dynamics, throw, controlled directivity, and controlled frequency response. We don't need fidelity and nuance. People miss the boat when building a home theater all the time; expensive speaker lines do NOT beat out more pro-based installations with horns. It's not music, it's movies.
Those are great speakers Zoe’s… Definitely great for dedicated Home Theater… You should review the JTR 212 HTR‘s… I know that you would love them they are the most realistic, detailed and dynamic Home Theater speakers that I’ve ever heard or owned. They might be the greatest Home Theater speakers made. I hooked them up to an emotiva processor and ran Dirac and will probably never change LCR‘s for the rest of my life.
I have these Klpisches and the JTRs or Perlistens seem like the only thing that could ever tempt me to upgrade. Given that my theater is in a 12x18 room, I'll need to move first, lol.
Will you look at the updated RP line from klipsch, you call the rp 600m the gold standard, so would love to know what you think of the rp 600 m ii, or another speaker from that line.
Dude so true about centre speakers with the typical d'appolito config - they suck! I've probably had 10 different centre speakers over the years and get much better results with a bookshelf speaker. Ideally the same speaker that I have up for L and R
Check this out. ruclips.net/video/xcRb_HKLtLw/видео.html A setup I did for my accountant back in the day with 3 matching pioneer towers.. Unfortunately the room was HOT GARBAGE and sounded awful.
I have the 650s, the rear surrounds and two subs with the Klipsch amp. Arcam amp for the bi- amp LR, C and surrounds. Massive sound. Can split your ears. Top gun 2 is killer!
I've had the Full THX Ultra II system for several years. It is end game speakers for dedicated home theatre. Wicked! Average for music, but the ATMOS music in Apple music is very good!
@@tosvus they come up randomly on the Klipsch forum in the classified section. Everyone always replies it’s a good deal, if only they were closer. Sometimes people will see it on offer up or fb market place and post it on the Klipsch forum incase anyone is local to get it. I’ve seen them with all the front speakers, back speakers and even the thx subs.
I have owned the 7.2 thx ultra 2 system for 4 years and they never seize to amaze me. One major thing he did not mention is these are not bright like typical Klipsch speakers. You can change that but the detail is unmatched. Unfortunately i have cancer and am selling all my gear. I would love to be buried with these and my guns but dont think thats possible
@@ZReviews yeah I seen that vid. He made a pair with those big horns for at least half the price. I’m running a full jbl 580 home theater but I’d try those in a heartbeat.
This lineup is 20 years old or so. They are intended to be used as a complete system. There is a subwoofer intended to be with them. A little while back you can get a complete system slightly used for $5000. Klipsch has a new system that they're pushing through the integrator market called the RCC, which is a full behind the screen unit that comes together it's own baffle wall. LCR and 2 subs. The THX system from Klipsch was before it's time. The inwall versions seem to be more popular but the THX line isn't that hard to find online but it was intended for the custom integration market. You need a full Klipsch THX 7.1 system to truly appreciate it.
@@lok777 yes. At least 2 subwoofers. It's intended to be used as a whole system regarded as one of the best sounding home theater system available costing far less than competing systems such as B&W and JBL Synthesis.
Yeah, these have been around awhile. I only know of one person who got these for their HT and it sounded good. They're overpriced new, but that's what you'd expect with a Klipsch + THX speaker. I still prefer my RP-II line and RF-7 III LCR for HT over these.
Theyre not selled often because the Dealers here in DE / GER not realy have Klipsch because theyre not easy to distribute here - and when you install a high end theatre you get way better results with Custom Solutions + Active & DSP Based Speakers (for example the Homecinema Installer HollywoodZuhause - also here on youtube)
I just tried, an home theater. With these klipsch thx speakers. For front/center and sides, it was fucking holy balls.. these power and pure love, these motherfucker deliver.. is just so fucking amazing!! The dude looked 3.5years, for these and finally found them.. and good holy balls, he is lucky... so epic speaker
I'm also rocking the Ultra2 7.2.4 setup (plus a Rhythmik FVX15, thanks for the tip on that Zeos). This system lives up the the hype. Never seen this model number. Looks like maybe the 5000 and 6000 are Canadian model numbers for the KL-525-THX and KL-650-THX?
Every home theater I have ever set up has set all speakers to crossover to sub below 60-80Hz to control the bass in the room... Most speakers regardless of size don't have real energy at 50hz and below whereas that's the sub's job...
I bought the Denon X4700-H and I used the Front pre-outs out of warm Sounding Denon to the Emotiva amp to drive my front Klispch speakers and the sound isn't as Bright and Edgy much much better now ! But then I disconnected the Emotiva and Hooked up front speakers to the Denon and Wow ! The imaging is great and Top end treble doesn't murder me now !!
600 M second Jen. Sorry for the wrong number in my comment. Anyways, yea get the Klipsch 600Ms 2, and the 500M 2s. For the rear. Oh my. Klipsch makes an fine center also.
sir.i bought some towers from my buddy,he rebuilt them from the inside out,sealed tightly plus he mounted small KLH speakers on top,they are cross networked into the towers,they sound nice,he placed some parts with more heavy material,lets there better built than how the speaker manufacture built them
These kind of remind me of Triad LCRs (sans the horn). I have a stack of 5 Triad LCRs in my garage that I haven't found a use for due to space limitations in my current house. If you haven't played around with Triad speakers yet, I'd gladly send them your way Z!
I really regret the set up I made for my theater downstairs. I went all Paradigm and Anthem for my set up. They are good at playing both music and movies but I should have went with being REALLY good at playing movies only. Probably would have saved a ton of money too. I have regerts.
Thanks for the review... got me excited and will travel 4 hr to pick 3 up. If you love them after trying so many speakers they must be damn good.... you think the Klipsch KL-650 are as good or better? Thanks man
Hey Z… would you mind teaching us, your beloved students, how you get a Single Back Surround Speaker in a 6.1 setup working properly on a processor such as your MC700 please? I had a look at the MC700 manual and don’t see an option 6.1 utilising a single back surround… so do you ‘Y splitter speaker cable from MC700 (SBL + SBR Pre-outs to the single speaker’ ? Or….? I’ve wanted to do this for years but never knew how without a dedicated receiver which allows it. Greatly appreciated Z!
I dont get why these dont have much traction in the US. I bought the THX-5000-SUR to pair with PSA audio MTM-210 front LCR. What a combination! These are the only Klipsch speakers I'd ever buy (the THX series that is)
i have been emailing klipech about them making a newer version of this line with all the new surround technology they need to make it ... try hooking it up to the RF7 lll as the main sleakers and those for the surrond channle
I def think putting a nice color on those concrete walls down there would be $ and time well spent. I don't hate it the way it is but I can imagine it with paint 💦
You really can't paint a concrete basement wall. You need to allow moisture to escape the concrete from the other side. So you usually put panels over it.
Zeos, for the same price (with dealer pricing) you can buy klipsch RC64 III centers and use as front mains oriented vertically. Do you think that would beat these ones? They seem way better built.
I've wanted these since childhood... An older iteration of course, but the sealed thx tops for Peavey Black widow subwoofers on a crown amp in a child's bed room lmmfao
Ta these have been out for a a bit now. Some years. They’re great. I think they cost a little to much for what they’re. You can find them used for cheaper.
Totally miss your upstairs space. I always had basement bedrooms as a kid and then as an adult a basement studio apartment made below in the old storage area below street level under a cottage and it was in a canyon with huge eucalyptus trees near Balboa park here in San Diego. So I felt very removed from humanity Its depressing in the basement. I totally get it "man cave" and the fact you needed the space. Its just that im "just saying" very much miss your top floor space with the extra light.
Z, i was tempted to grab the old 8000F before they get phased out at a awesome price. Then i decided on getting the new 8000 II"s, would these be a better solution in my living room to pair with my LG C1 and Denon Stereo? You got me curious..... please advise.
I was obsessed with those before I was doing this YT thing. I haven not heard them. I DID however build a copy out of Dayton B652's for my parents bedroom.
I've got the kl-650-thx and they replaced my MK S-100B. The MK sounded great for movies and music but I enjoy the Klipsch more for movies and they are definitely louder with the same power. High efficient speakers without amps is a nice way to go.
Ascend cbm 170se vs THX 5000? For movies and price seems like 170se would be the winner. Watched both videos twice can't tell which one you liked more? Z please help :)
What if you put a normal musical speaker in the place these klipsches are standing now, 12 feet as you describe. Will it get close to the sound? Then the normal speaker won't image that well like the klipsches.
I am gonna agree to disagree Z !!!! Although they are great speakers for what they are. But the cost is way way to high. For me, it's the Klipsch RP 603 2s. For half the cost.
i have always wanted to have a front soundstage with the KL-650-THX LCR's. but they discontinued them sadly. so it looks like they came back with a new set.
Have tried the klipsch kw 120 thx ultra 2 subwoofer? Thx ultra 2 mean music and movies does both. I have all set just need 1 more sub to get ultra 2 format.
those are speakers that make kinda sense for a home theatre option. Horn kinda kills them again but whatever better then most basic hifi speakers. Luckily i can design and build my own speakers. There is nothing on the market for home threatre ... well the situation for music aint much better. Speakers got very bad over the last 20 years to buy. Even 10.000€/$ spakers still shitty.
Been waiting for someone to do the klipsch THX Line! Thanks! Would love to know if the new “Reference Premier II” line up is any better than the previous… Also - if you ever get a chance to try the X20i IEMs by klipch, I’ll send you my custom balanced 4.4 cable for them. Holy hell they’re the most underrated IEMs on the planet once you hear them balanced.
I just love the fact that you include demo sounds in your videos, as compared with the other reviewers/audio enthusiasts, your videos are actually not boring.
Steps for gradually building your own home theater system:
1) get a big enough place with no thin walls and/or neighbors
2) give up if 1 isn't met
My usual advice is introduce yourself to your neighbors right away. Play music and ask it its bothering them.. Exchange Numbers. That way the police get called second. Plus you may make a movie night friend.
plus you can make ypour walls soundproof, not cheap tho
Step 3) Don't have an overly objective wife.
Or get a drumset FIRST. Any noise after that will be trivial.
@@Assimilator702 or a Marshall stack and learn metal guitar 😂
I have the full 7.2 system, I've been telling people about them for many years. So happy somebody finally put a review out on them.
That must kick ass and take names.
@@ZReviews it's quite awesome, you'd love the bi pole surround speakers, they have the same "snap" as the front ones do.
Z...it's a real pleasure to listen to an individual who really knows what he's talking about (comfortably I might add). Peace...
Haven't watched the review yet, but I have been planning on using these for a few years (when I eventually build my home theater). Glad a relatively large and trusted review got a set finally!!
Your are definitely right. NO one has talk about this klipsch speakers and I'm glad someone is doing a review and that other then Z 😃

You know Z is serious when he transitions to the passionate whisper about the sound.

FINALLY! I wonder if you saw my comment about these 👀👀
They also make dedicated surround channels from this line that are bi-pole I absolutely love them
B&W CT7.3, CT7.4, CT7.5 LCRS. I only heard the 7.5's x 5 in a 5.2.2, which was amazing! $800 ea. I believe.
Awesome review ZEOS
I believe youtuber SPARE CHANGE has 11 of these in surround sound for his home theater CRAY CRAY

I’ve wanted to do this for years but never knew how without a dedicated receiver which allows it. Greatly appreciated Z!
I find that option is missing now on most receivers.
You really can’t just tell me how YOU achieved it in your video above? Is it a big secret?
Honey will work ALL ways!
I dont get why these dont have much traction in the US. I bought the THX-5000-SUR to pair with PSA audio MTM-210 front LCR. What a combination! These are the only Klipsch speakers I'd ever buy (the THX series that is)
WOW those are some nice Klipsch's , the 650's should be insane
i have been emailing klipech about them making a newer version of this line with all the new surround technology they need to make it ... try hooking it up to the RF7 lll as the main sleakers and those for the surrond channle
I def think putting a nice color on those concrete walls down there would be $ and time well spent. I don't hate it the way it is but I can imagine it with paint 💦
You really can't paint a concrete basement wall. You need to allow moisture to escape the concrete from the other side. So you usually put panels over it.
Z if you can get your hands on a pair of polk audio lsim 702 f/x to compare to these Klipsch would you do that review. Polk are amazing!
idk either but they are pure kill,i bought 3 pair to use in my bathroom and these are perfect to rock out when my #$%#'s out.
The Klipsch LCRs are awesome but definitely need a sood sub to pair them with.
Zeos, for the same price (with dealer pricing) you can buy klipsch RC64 III centers and use as front mains oriented vertically. Do you think that would beat these ones? They seem way better built.
😂 my hunny would not approve. I love it
i am rn finding these speakers to purchase and found zero,wondering why . where can i buy these set :'/
I've wanted these since childhood... An older iteration of course, but the sealed thx tops for Peavey Black widow subwoofers on a crown amp in a child's bed room lmmfao
2:35 - Went to Chicago and did what?
What did I miss in my city????
I had 3 of these. Sold two of them. The remaining one is used as a door stop where it belongs.
Ta these have been out for a a bit now. Some years. They’re great. I think they cost a little to much for what they’re. You can find them used for cheaper.
The box IS tuning the bass, whether there's a port or not.
Could you ask them for a set of Klipsch Cornwall IV's? Way out of most of our budgets I'm sure but would be nice to see them on here.
I wish you could compare these to Toids DIY clones!
If I had his set up I would build those clones, probably JBL clones as well
I would love to see you making some review of PA speakers in home use ( something like the presonus cdl12p ). If there is someone capable is you
Totally miss your upstairs space. I always had basement bedrooms as a kid and then as an adult a basement studio apartment made below in the old storage area below street level under a cottage and it was in a canyon with huge eucalyptus trees near Balboa park here in San Diego. So I felt very removed from humanity Its depressing in the basement.
I totally get it "man cave" and the fact you needed the space. Its just that im "just saying" very much miss your top floor space with the extra light.
Acoustics up there are total shit. Plus since this is my job.. I work in my basement and live upstairs.
I love rooms full of speakers
I would have to rotate that middle speaker by 90 degrees
Z, i was tempted to grab the old 8000F before they get phased out at a awesome price. Then i decided on getting the new 8000 II"s, would these be a better solution in my living room to pair with my LG C1 and Denon Stereo? You got me curious..... please advise.
2 12" powered subs is what everyone should have in their system.
Great review’
Have you reviewed the MK s150, how would they compare to these klipsch-?
I was obsessed with those before I was doing this YT thing. I haven not heard them. I DID however build a copy out of Dayton B652's for my parents bedroom.
I've got the kl-650-thx and they replaced my MK S-100B. The MK sounded great for movies and music but I enjoy the Klipsch more for movies and they are definitely louder with the same power. High efficient speakers without amps is a nice way to go.
How are the Ks-525 surround speakers? Need that review next
Ascend cbm 170se vs THX 5000? For movies and price seems like 170se would be the winner. Watched both videos twice can't tell which one you liked more? Z please help :)
What if you put a normal musical speaker in the place these klipsches are standing now, 12 feet as you describe. Will it get close to the sound? Then the normal speaker won't image that well like the klipsches.
Also what happened to the Palladium line? Have you ever heard them?
Love
Oh my god what is that??? I love those
That entire speaker would fit in my woofer. She lied. Bigger IS better.
Master and Commander...so good. Also, what would your opinion of using studio monitors for a home theater setup be?
As long as they get loud enough monitors are fine for HT. You need a sub for explosions etc anyways.
What Lok said.
Not a single female character in that movie...MGTOW !!!
i would like to see you reviewing the jbl pro line of theather speakers..(the smaller ones)
Could you give the HR824mk2's a go! I wanna know if i should get them or wait for fluid's fpx7 replacement.
Beastly.
I am gonna agree to disagree Z !!!!
Although they are great speakers for what they are. But the cost is way way to high.
For me, it's the Klipsch RP 603 2s.
For half the cost.
You should paint your front wall black or red.
i have always wanted to have a front soundstage with the KL-650-THX LCR's. but they discontinued them sadly. so it looks like they came back with a new set.
They are still produced, just renamed as the 6000 LCR
Good cheap sub ... sealed Starke sound brev series. Sw15's are impressive for the price
Have tried the klipsch kw 120 thx ultra 2 subwoofer? Thx ultra 2 mean music and movies does both. I have all set just need 1 more sub to get ultra 2 format.
those are speakers that make kinda sense for a home theatre option. Horn kinda kills them again but whatever better then most basic hifi speakers. Luckily i can design and build my own speakers. There is nothing on the market for home threatre ... well the situation for music aint much better. Speakers got very bad over the last 20 years to buy. Even 10.000€/$ spakers still shitty.

Been waiting for someone to do the klipsch THX Line! Thanks! Would love to know if the new “Reference Premier II” line up is any better than the previous…
Also - if you ever get a chance to try the X20i IEMs by klipch, I’ll send you my custom balanced 4.4 cable for them. Holy hell they’re the most underrated IEMs on the planet once you hear them balanced.
The RP-II line is better. Are they worth the cost to upgrade if you already have the RP-I line? No. But they do measure and sound better.
Remember, in a home theater, loud is better than good. I learned that from Bose.
My needs: 90% HT, 10% Music. Couldn’t live w/o the music. Great review, though.
Arendal is good at both.
Does any of the JBL studios compare to these?
They are high end Klipsch speaker. They so made for movies and tv watching./
