Klipsch RP-600M II

The Mark 1 Klipsch rp600m is very good enough if you know how to match it.I am playing them this morning they sound so close to my Diapason Adamantes.

i have these lil klipsches in a bedroom in our country home

they are ok for casual listening, they can get raspy when pushed but certainly have a lively sound, and are efficient, so one can use a smallish amp

I have not read a review about any speaker, at any cost, driven by any equipment, in any room, that didn’t garner criticism on the site. This is the reason I just stay put with what I have.

With many products, there is a ‘if you want to do it right, get so and so’, but not audio. There is always a wrinkle….

Power clean?

Power cable suit your system? 

Room treated?

Amp up to the task? Might sound better with tubes/solid state.

Vibration controlled? Spikes or springs? 

It all starts with the source, right? Or is it the room? Or clean power?

What phono preamp, that can get you in trouble if you have a mismatch.

Speaker positioning correct? Away from wall/ near the wall/ toe in? Stand height correct?

How about interconnects?

Are you using the right speaker cables? 

Is your chair up against the wall, it’s a no no.

Glasses on?

Ears clean?

Tv screen covered? Window treatments in place?

It’s all about synergy..

How in the world can you isolate any symptoms and say it’s the speaker? That concept goes against the overcomplicated nature of the hobby. 
 

@johnto  if the Klipsch are in your budget they are fine, unless you enjoy wringing your hands and splitting hairs. Get an inexpensive amp and relax.

For the $$$$, they are a very good speaker.
