Veloc Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Hello everyone, Current setup: A 5.0 Kenwood home theater pack from Series 21 and they are really old. The AVR I'm using is a denon X-2700H and my subwoofer is a Klipsch SPL-120. Usage: 50% movies, 50% music (not using 2.0 for music though). Listening habits and tastes: I mainly watch action movies with dynamic effects etc. As for my music tastes, I listen to almost everything, from metal to hip hop. Volume wise, I love cranking it up! And I'm a basshead. Room size and main listening position: Room is ~1800cubic feet. It's a small one, with just a double bed, a wardrobe and my home theater setup. The MLP is at 9,2feet. Budget: No more than 1300euros (eu market). Options, prices and thoughts: I want to go for the RP line since I've read that they are awesome speakers. For the center speaker I can get the RP-600C for 400euros or the RP-504C for 540euros. As for the Left and Right channel, I can get the RP-5000F's for 680euros, the RP-6000F's for 800euros or the RP-600M's for 500euros. Should I save cash and just go for the RP-600M's and later on plan to buy a bigger sub? Are those Klipsch floorstanders muuuch louder than the RP-600M's, or a good subwoofer could balance things out? Thanks a ton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_jitsu Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 I am a big fan of Klipsch for HT, the subs, not so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard that Klipsch subs have bad amps. 57 minutes ago, hobbyinn said: RP-504C and pair of RP-6000F. Do you think that the RP-6000F will be much better than the RP-600M?

Dr_jitsu Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 I would not use a Klipsch sub period...sorry. I love their speakers....the best for HT. The Ref series are a bit sharp for music but perfect for HT. For music I would want the top of the line horns/Heresy/La Scal etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding Klipsch subs. I have four SPL-150s in the theater and am happy with them. "Much better' is very relative. I use towers for all surrounds, so I am biased.
