BusaDude Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 I have some 2.2's and 2.5's and really enjoy them as well. If you pair them with a small subwoofer, and take the load off of them below 80Hz, they can really be quite dynamic in a smaller room. And a full KG 2.2/2.5 front end with some KG 1.5's as surrounds makes a really nice 5.1 setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telemike Posted August 15, 2016 Author Share Posted August 15, 2016 Any opinions on these? I like them except I'm hearing a little boomy mid bass. I have them 17" from back wall and 3 ft from sides and on 24" Pangea stands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

telemike Posted August 15, 2016 Author Share Posted August 15, 2016 Would you say the mesh grills affect the sound or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're hearing "boomy mid-bass" it's probably a placement/room issue. Move them around a bit and see what happens. You may be sitting in a room node and could be hearing a peak at a particular frequency. I run mine without the grilles. But I haven't done enough listening with them on to say one way or the other. Though I doubt it would make much difference, if any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjptkd Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 Congrats on the new Klipsches! I don't think adding a little poly-fil would hurt but agree with what GPB is telling you. I'd look into buying a subwoofer to take some of the strain off them little guys and cross them over to cut out the lower frequencies. Also, I'd try moving them back a bit closer to the rear wall, maybe so the fronts of the speakers are flush with the TV? I'd play around a bit with placement as all that will cost you is a little time and may net you some great results. A friend of mine was using three 2.2's for his front speakers and only had them a few inches from his back wall and they sounded great. He eventually picked up a pair of KG 5.2's for his front mains and moved the two 2.2's to the rear and now he has a pretty kick a$$ home theater that didn't break the bank.
