I have a pair of Forte 1 with the Crites XO that I bought last year, and I love them. They are the first pair of Klipsch I've ever owned. They are set up in my unfinished basement, not an ideal listening environment, but they sound phenomenal. I agree with everyone else that $400 is a really good price for the Fortes. If you ever wanted to upgrade the tweeters and/or midrange drivers down the road, the cost won't break the bank either. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
