hello youthman i bought klipsch rp500sa and rp502s i would like to put the 502s on the side of my sofa and the rp500sa behind my sofa at what height should i set them?
Nah you just have to get creative. I have zero out of pocket. Over the past 10 years I have bought / sold used audio gear, bartered web design services for new gear, DIY and finding Youthman Deals. Just have to be patient and get creative to fund it
Gotta watch the sales. I’ve got 2 12 in subs, 4 81/2 towers, 4 51/4 bookshelf speakers and the 4 41/4 center speaker and 2 41/4 height speakers; all klipsch. All said and done on Black Friday for right around $2,000.
@@Youthman hey youthman I got a good deal on a Klipsch RP-504c center Channel and two Klipsch R-26F Floor Standing Speakers and A Klipsch R-112sw Subwoofer all for $750 Brand New! to go along with my New yamaha a2070 AVR
Just a little add on to how to hook up all of your speakers as you well know , it is critical to label all of your speaker wires as to what wires go to what speakers . It will save you a ton of time if you ever have to move your speakers or switch out your AVR . I see you did this and it is a must ! Fantastic video and easy to follow !! Thanks !!
Jesus that's like my dream setup right there lol, I've got some ProMedia 2.1's I've had for awhile for my desktop and a cheap $200 Samsung sound bar+subwoofer for my TV lol. Hopefully one day I'll have a bad ass setup like this.
Eh,its all relative I bought "the best" PC speaker system they had in 2004. Now,its only a good deal on ebay and not near the power of what can be hooked up now. I like it.
Man when you lifted that screen, 2 SVS PB 16 & Those Klipsch? WUT !! ? What you already got is AWESOME better than they sent you Man !! WOW what a setup, best home theater I've seen...1 question the first row home theater seats, what brand is that? those are NICE Seats, I'm looking for Quality Leather Seating. Thanks for the Dolby Atmos Info , that's my next move. AWESOME HOME THEATER, WOW !! Great video Man !!
I remember when you had 9 subscribers.. now almost 100k!! Way to go my friend! I’m looking for a new setup and I believe this is the exact one I was looking for. Thank you for being awesome 👏🏼 I love your videos Youthman!
That’s probably very subjective. No expense spared could be a million dollar or more home theater. Really depends on what your needs are. Are you in the US?
@Youthman Yes in the Chicagoland area. I understand. I just hope I can get a good value for the money. It's not posted on every video of how much a certain setup costs. Appreciate your input.
What if I told you that was not my setup? It was only in for review. My setup is MUCH larger than that. Would you believe me if I told you I have zero out of pocket in the entire home theater? Here is a tour of my room ruclips.net/video/9rQxNd1Lf38/видео.html
I’m running a very similar setup. Using 4 rp-280f’s for the front and rear. Rp-450 c front, rp 250s for the side surround, 4 rp-140sa’s for the height channels. And the two r-115 sw’s. Have been using it for almost two years now. Absolutely love it. Have them running through a denon 6300h. Movies, music sound amazing. I highly recommend it if you have the room for them. They do take up a lot of space.
I have my 500SA mounted as FH/RH but I turned off the Atmos voodoo crossover and have the switch set to surround. I thought you are only supposed to leave it on if upfiring atmos. I did the helicopter Atmos demo with the disc and with it set to surround and it sounded like the helicopter was circling above me.
You are correct Lawrence. The manual isn’t very clear but we had some discussion / debate in one of the Klipsch Facebook groups so I reached out to Klipsch and the Product Manager said they are updating their documentation to make it more clear that the only time you should use Atmos switch is if you are upfiring and bouncing the sound off of the ceiling. Wall mounted Atmos should be set to surround
Youthman thanks for the reply. I ended up coming to my own conclusion because the whole reason I bought this version was to turn off the Atmos crossover. My thinking was that if I would’ve had regular bookshelves (or ceiling for that matter), they wouldn’t come with Atmos crossover as they’re already up high and no need to simulate(which I have tried with poor results with 8ft flat ceilings). Thanks for all the hard work with your videos!
Youthman also yes the documentation was not clear so I’m glad you reached out to them to address it to help other people who may be confused or not know better.
Man the new Klipsch rp line looks sweet!! I have several along with a 4 Svs speakers in my bedroom. Love to listen to music in surround mode. My favorite are the klipsch rp center channel, so powerful and clear.
This is actually my first comment on your channel. I have watched all your Klipsch videos. Long story short, your videos have inspired me to finally take the leap in pursuing this long dream of mine. I'm now in the process of building my own dedicated home theater room (22ft x 22ft). I would love to share the final result with you once it's complete. Once again thank you very much for the effort you put into your videos. Regards, Mahmood from Bahrain (It's an island in the middle east)
Nice review, however I'm pretty sure the atmos switch is only to be used if they are actually doing ceiling reflection, just mounting them on the wall the AVR will give them the sounds required where the sound is in 3D space.
Where does this end? 12.9 channels? 24.2 channels? 100.79 Artificial ATMOS Channels? Real Scene Fan controls? VR Artificial scent Dispenser ATMOS? Vibration Reality Control Floor Panels? Hydraulic Computer Control Tilt Room??? How far is this going to go? 1,000.7 CHANNELS?
No doubt it was a pain in thee arse getting the lighting for recording right, but sure makes a difference in your video, and looks awesome with the lights down. 👍🏻👍🏻😀
Thank you. Honestly I’m pretty new to lighting. I didn’t realize I was supposed to turn off my main lights and only use my Soft Box. Now I need to buy a few more.
Is there music for set ups like this? I mean, especially trance music as example should be perfect for ceiling speakers as well to get in the middle of the music.
Great video. Very informative. One question I’ve always wanted to ask you and I’m sure a lot of people have always wondered, like in this case Klipsch has provided you with speakers for you to review now after your review is done do you ship them back to them or do they let you keep them?? I hope it’s not too much of a personal question. I hope they let you keep them LOL
That’s a great question. Most companies give us 60-90 Day Review period, and then they pay to have it shipped back. I can typically purchase the item at the end of the review at a discounted rate simply because they would rather not have to pay to ship it back to them and they don’t want to have to try and sell it used. There are times that I really liked the product and have worked out brand deals to make additional videos on the product beyond the review in order to keep the product.
Thanks for the video! Very helpful. I'm just confused at 5:41 where you mention you have the "Dolby Atmos Rear Surround installed as height Atmos speakers." Just for clarification, are you installing them as rear surround and connecting them to rear surround connections on the AV receiver with Atmos enabled (or Surround enabled) or are you installing them as height speakers and connecting them to height connections on the AV receiver with Atmos enabled? Also, could you switch out the 502S you installed on the Left and Right Surround with the RP-500 SA, and would you set them as Surround or Atmos if you did so?
You are amazing man ! Bad that we are so far away from each other , Belgium is far far faaaar away .. you have a nice theater man ! Great channel and tips and tricks!! Keep going 😬😬👍👍👍
That is a heck of a setup there! I would love towers for the rear surrounds too lol! I know it's not permanent, but you'd really get some good sound and dynamics back there with those. Very good job explaining how to get it all setup too. I'm still jelly of that screen setup man lol
Ah... only use the Atmos if you are using them as upfiring speakers. If you have them mounted to the wall, as height elevation or Atmos speakers, use the surround setting.
Youthman you have surround back and surround front. But to get the full effect of something going around you, to hear it front, sides and back. What do you use on the connections for the sides, there’s no surround side. Sorry I’m learning all this.
What does the atmos/surround switch on the speakers do? I mean, why does the speaker need to have any switches to decide where you're pointing it?! Surely the amp/receiver decides how the speakers should be equalised etc
Hey! Can you give a speaker equipment list with model numbers just for the Klipsch Reference Speakers? I'm trying to build my own system but mis-matching on their website is confusing. I'm curious which ones specifically you used in this video. Also, are your existing LCR speakers and SVS subs active with the Reference speakers simultaneously or was this video more of a how-to install?
I have a question. I got an old Yamaha avr off Craigslist for dirt cheap I can only hook it up to my tv through the tos link since it doesn't have hdmi. I also have pioneer bookshelves and center channel I got on a killer sale and an old (90s) pair of pioneer book shelves from my dad to complete my 5.0 surround set up. What do you think should be my next purchase. The fs52 pioneer towers to match the center and bookshelves, a sub (I am looking at the polk sw10), or upgrade to a more modern avr looking at pioneer and Sony mostly, probably would go with the Sony since it's cheaper and I'm on strict budget and you reviewed it and said it's perfect for starting out. I can only get one piece next month what do you think my move should be based on my set up so far. Love the content keep it up. 2 days ago (edited)
I'm a newbie so a dumb question. I have the Klipsch towers with built in up-firing speakers. In the video I did not see how those were connected to the receiver given that they require 2 sets of speaker wires.
No problem Jim. On the back of the speaker there is a top set of binding posts (black and Red) and a bottom set (black and red connections). The top red and black would be connected to your Front Atmos or Front Height connection on your AVR. Let me know if you have any additional questions
Lucky you. I have a very scaled down version of a 7.1 configuration. I didn’t learn much from this video because there is no way I could ever get such huge speakers that take up so much space.
Unfortunately these were not purchased by me, but rather my friend who built the cabinet. The link that I had in my build thread to the shocks he used is no longer active. I will need to do some research to find a replacement because mine are just now beginning to not fully support the weight of the screen and need replacing
This is what I was looking for, not that I don't know how to setup speakers but because it's fun to watch someone build a surround home theater setup! Thanks Youthman! I'm rockin' a 7.2.2 Polk Audio surround setup rn with Dolby Atmos coming in the future, don't have the money to buy 9.2 channel receiver yet!
Absolutely nothing wrong with a solid 5.1. I have always said that an improper 7.1 is not going to sound as good as a properly set up 5.1 sometimes less is definitely more.
I was wondering where in the receiver did you plug in the 2 seperate wire terminals? I'm just now building a home theater, and I'm struggling a little bit.
I have 5 ceiling speakers already installed & wired by the builder in my living room. What's the best way to deploy them? wo sacrifying any of them? Just use them as atmos? In an x.x.4 set up?
My guess is the front three speakers were used as an LCR. Definitely not ideal. I would check to see if the Twitter is Aimable. If they fire straight down, they may not do much good.
Nice setup. But you're running only 140 watts max receiver when it powers only 2 speakers; yet you have essentially 6 surrounds (2 of which are monster towers) and three monster speakers (2 of which are monster towers) in the front? Do you get enough power to all the speakers?
Having a dedicated power amp is always a good thing. However the AVR had absolutely no issues powering this system at Reference volume due to their efficiency. Speakers with a lower efficiency would likely require an amp.
9:40 The Technics SB-M1 speakers are the beast I ever seen in my whole life , my neighbors old man past away last month his daughter showed me 2 brand new Technics SB-M1 in the box never used or touched she inherited them from the old man who kept them in his bedroom closet all those years I wish I can buy them she want $4k for them which super good deal 😢
What video did you watch? Only time I left my screen is the show someone the speakers and subwoofer’s that are behind it. I have a cabinet below that houses all of my equipment. Here is the most recent tour of my room- ruclips.net/video/CSo7ZEDArjQ/видео.html
My bosses son had a set of these delivered to the workshop for his house before Christmas. I could not believe the price he told me they were 😲😲😲. Never heard of them till then. Now im seeing them everywhere

Thx for the info. I will check with Klipsch to verify.
Agreed. The switch turns on the filtering prescribed by Dolby for upfirers. For height use, you would want that off.

Dang Youthman. It looks like Christmas came early to your house. 🙄
This is a great reference material for me as I ultimately hope to get to 7.2.4. 👍🏾
It’s certainly been fun to play with.
Hi Youthman, I like the Gas Shocks you used for the Fixed Projector Screen Ho can I get Them/ where can I buy them?
Thanks, take a look at this page for my build threads - youthmanreviews.com/about/
When you hooked up your side surround what setting in the back of the receiver did u use?
I’m not sure what your question is Brian. There aren’t any settings on the back of the receiver
Ah... only use the Atmos if you are using them as upfiring speakers. If you have them mounted to the wall, as height elevation or Atmos speakers, use the surround setting.
Youthman you have surround back and surround front. But to get the full effect of something going around you, to hear it front, sides and back. What do you use on the connections for the sides, there’s no surround side. Sorry I’m learning all this.
I have two side surrounds and two back surrounds. This video tour of my setup will help - ruclips.net/video/PBuHLgGkfV4/видео.html

That setup is pretty insane.
It sounds fantastic too
Nice but I was hoping for a longer demo.
Brutal cinema klipsch
What does the atmos/surround switch on the speakers do? I mean, why does the speaker need to have any switches to decide where you're pointing it?! Surely the amp/receiver decides how the speakers should be equalised etc
I guess it will optimize the sound for a better performance

its a bit much for eastenders here in the UK
Awesome setup, Klipsch are the best
My movie setup is a monitor on a zvox speaker. But then my gaming setup is a down firing Yamaha sub and 2 realist audio speakers.
very perfect. how much budget is needed to install this system?
$6500
And now you are speechless. HAHAH its too funny! Have great day, man.
This is neat but I guess is you If I have to ask I can’t afford it 😂
What would be the best wires to buy for this setup?
I use Monoprice cables. Very affordable and nice build quality
Yes, so if you thought your soundbar was nice, take it outside and burn it.
You mean burn it inside and use the insurance money to afford the entire theater setup so the 7.2.4 makes sense.

Lucky you. I have a very scaled down version of a 7.1 configuration. I didn’t learn much from this video because there is no way I could ever get such huge speakers that take up so much space.
Question on the setup... No dedicated/discrete amplification stage for this setup? Could you explain that?
I believe at the time of this video, I ran the entire system off an AVR due to Klipsch's high sensitivity.
Hy, could you please tell me, how strong and long are the gas struts you use? Nice room :)
Unfortunately these were not purchased by me, but rather my friend who built the cabinet. The link that I had in my build thread to the shocks he used is no longer active.
I will need to do some research to find a replacement because mine are just now beginning to not fully support the weight of the screen and need replacing
This is what I was looking for, not that I don't know how to setup speakers but because it's fun to watch someone build a surround home theater setup! Thanks Youthman! I'm rockin' a 7.2.2 Polk Audio surround setup rn with Dolby Atmos coming in the future, don't have the money to buy 9.2 channel receiver yet!
That’s awesome! Just build it slow and steady and enjoy the journey along the way
That’s allot of bloody speakers.
Even after all these years I’m really happy with very high quality speakers and a bad ass receiver in 5.1.
K.I.S.S.
Absolutely nothing wrong with a solid 5.1. I have always said that an improper 7.1 is not going to sound as good as a properly set up 5.1 sometimes less is definitely more.
I was wondering where in the receiver did you plug in the 2 seperate wire terminals? I'm just now building a home theater, and I'm struggling a little bit.
Killer setup you have! Looking to get my own small home theater setup but I’m not even sure where to start honestly
Kindly send some names of best qualities of speakers cables..
Monoprice. You and your wallet will thank me
Sir please recommend 5.1.2 av reciever from denon
I have 5 ceiling speakers already installed & wired by the builder in my living room.
What's the best way to deploy them? wo sacrifying any of them?
Just use them as atmos? In an x.x.4 set up?
Yes I wouldn’t recommend using them for any of your bed layer speakers. They could be used for height channels
My guess is the front three speakers were used as an LCR. Definitely not ideal. I would check to see if the Twitter is Aimable. If they fire straight down, they may not do much good.
Why didn't you put the Atmos speaker higher ?
Nice setup. But you're running only 140 watts max receiver when it powers only 2 speakers; yet you have essentially 6 surrounds (2 of which are monster towers) and three monster speakers (2 of which are monster towers) in the front? Do you get enough power to all the speakers?
Having a dedicated power amp is always a good thing. However the AVR had absolutely no issues powering this system at Reference volume due to their efficiency. Speakers with a lower efficiency would likely require an amp.
Those Klipsch RP-502S are great!!! Love those!
Thanks
Nice speakers hope it has cool Bass
9:40 The Technics SB-M1 speakers are the beast I ever seen in my whole life , my neighbors old man past away last month his daughter showed me 2 brand new Technics SB-M1 in the box never used or touched she inherited them from the old man who kept them in his bedroom closet all those years I wish I can buy them she want $4k for them which super good deal 😢
So you have to lift your screen to put a 4k movie in?
What video did you watch? Only time I left my screen is the show someone the speakers and subwoofer’s that are behind it. I have a cabinet below that houses all of my equipment. Here is the most recent tour of my room- ruclips.net/video/CSo7ZEDArjQ/видео.html
Hi Youthman, to which speaker connector on your receiver did you connected the Atoms upfiring speakers which are on top of Front speakers ?
My bosses son had a set of these delivered to the workshop for his house before Christmas. I could not believe the price he told me they were 😲😲😲. Never heard of them till then. Now im seeing them everywhere
What is the name of the movie at the end?
Nice setup
Simply superb👍
This is a recent tour of my room - ruclips.net/video/PBuHLgGkfV4/видео.html
Hi Can you use any type of ceiling speakers to broadcast Dolby Atmos
Wouldn't the screen be vibrating like crazy with all that bass blowing behind it?
Are you available for home theater system consult?
Yes, you can email me at michael@youthmanreviews.com
😍❤️ mind blowing setup
Incredible setup. But what's the point in having two subs if you put them next to each other? And doesn't your room shake too much?
