I was in this dilemma earlier. If you go to the klipsch thread on avs, theres NOT one bad thing said about the 504. There are members that have had bboth the 600c 500c and the 504c, and do say the 504 is a much better speaker. That was enough for me and I jumped into the 504 unheard... and I love it.
