Klipsch R-41M Powerful Detailed Bookshelf Home Speaker Set of 2 Black

I bought these as part of my pandemic lock-down goal to have decent sound from my PC, as I was very dissatisfied with the performance of the Logitech 2.1 speakers I'd been using. My solution has been to connect my PC to an external USB valve DAC, feeding into a small 80W per channel solid state desktop amplifier, feeding into these Klipsch speakers. The difference is night-and-day. They might not be bass monsters, but they manage to produce a shockingly large amount of it for such small speakers. If your listening habits are mostly drum & bass, dubstep, or other bass-heavy material then you might want a subwoofer with these, but otherwise they manage just fine. Overall, they're a very crisp and clean sounding pair of speakers, with punchy, well-controlled bass and plenty of detail in the treble.Some might find their sound a little on the 'aggressive' or 'harsh' side thanks to those horn loaded tweeters, which is why I decided to use a valve based DAC to tame them a little, and it seems to have done the trick. Probably more of a potential issue for younger listeners - my middle aged ears are basically deaf to frequencies above 13kHz.And then there are the looks. Personally, I love how they look, and when I'm buying speakers that will be seated either side of the PC monitor on my desk's monitor shelf (with some sorbothane feet to help isolate them) and I'll be ~75cm away from them when I'm using them, the fact that they have a high quality finish and with that copper coloured driver look a lot less bland than most speakers... they look very good up close, and it's a definite plus. Nice touches like using copper coloured bolts to match the driver don't go unnoticed either.

I had these in my watch box for over a year. they came down 1/2 price and I bought them. I got to say, they sound great. crisp clear highs and lows.

Superb sound for the money, being used as studio monitors in my home set up. Have added a cheap valve pre amp for when playing music direct from my pc to add some warmth to the sound.

neutral sound , bass a little shy but great considering cabinet and driver size

If your wanting rich sound sound quality I would recommend these.hower a subwoofer would be required if your looking for bass aswell..

Very good sounds

Very good... using them as side speakers and they work well

Quality sound as always with klipsch
