Nope.  Nothing Klipsch offers in the theater line is close to what SVS offers.  They're purpose built for 2 different functions.

Good point. I still consider all direct radiator subs (I had twin 18's for a short while) to be distortion generators good enough for computer speakers. But I do think SVS provides good options, so if Klipsch can compete there, so be it.

 

I'm sure they will sound fine with bookshelf speakers like the ones the OP has.

I just added a video of the unboxing, overview and several audio demos in the original post above.

We just concluded The HiFi Summit so I have not had much opportunity to sit and listen to them without being in "video mode" LOL.

I also updated the photos in the original post as well with much higher quality images. The first images I posted were taken with my iPhone (which didn't turn out very well).

Hey Craig,

I actually haven't heard the RP-600M. Lots of great reviews. The Fives utilize the same tweeter from the RP-600M.
