I built a little home theatre system a couple years ago. It's just a simple 5.1 using a lower priced Denon receiver. My main speakers are The 6" 2 way towers for which I paid roughly 300 bucks. Then I have a low cost Klipsch 5" center channel and 4" two way surround speakers. I kept my existing Monoprice 12" sub crossed over at around 70 hz. I probably have about 1200 bucks in the whole system and for what it is, it sounds great. The 610s are a great theatre speaker and hold their own for stand alone 2 channel stereo. My goal is to save some cask and get a pair of Forte IVs for my main speakers and upgrade my front channel amplification. I'll still have a decent system for movies but my music listening will take a huge leap up. Seems like Klipsch makes a great product at every price range. I'll never own anything else. I went to work in a hi-fi store when I was 17 in 1974. I'm now 67 and am looking to economically build my last stereo system.

I have heard so many mixed reviews about the Klipsch T5M headphones that I had to give them a try. So when the factory web store ran them on sale over the Holidays I ordered a pair. For a sub 100 dollar retail set of buds, I think they sound terrific. Great low end, detailed mids and highs, along with a great sound stage. Even though I think they may be discontinued, I had to put in my personal review. I have long been a Klipsch fan and all the speakers in my home theater are Klipsch. My goal is to save some cash and someday have a set of Forte loudspeakers. Good job on the ear buds.
