Bellissima Sala Home theatre! I miei complimenti!
Seeing the surround system on sale for $400 dollars. Thank you for this review due to wondering if this was worth it even from Klipsch with the sale
Can I use klipsch reference 820 f (180 watts@8 ohms with Sonos amp ?(125@ 8 ohms)
I think it’s a great amp if you like music more than TV I think it’s fantastic, but it also gives you the advantage to watch TV too
Klipsch reference 5.1 or logitech z906? whats better?
What mounts did you go with especially the center I have the same ones
I tried this with my RF7IIIs, and was so impressed. I expected them to work because of their efficiency, but was still happy with the results. I ended up returning the amp because my plans for it had changed, but much respect.
Can I make it 5.1 with other pair with Sonos ones?
what kind of speaker mounts are these thanks
you have really beautiful house
Can it connect to a pc?
I bought this set, its a great set, Very vocal. But it lacks a little in the front main speaker in my 15x 20 media room maybe because its sits on the ground. Im thinking to add a in wall 5 inch speaker by Klipsch.
Can this work with 5.1 on a computer and if so what type of connection do i need. I want surround sound. Thanks for the video
I have these, albeit in a smaller living room, but the set is great. He's exaggerating about the sub tho, it doesn't shake the house nor can you hear it within a 5 block radius.
Just bought and set up, picked up r50m speakers for main left and right, everything sounds great, but my room is 20x30 and this 8" sub doesn't do the trick, captures the mid range perfectly, but the lows it ends up sounding like a whoopie cushion
It’s crazy how this video kicked off my home theater journey. I just wanna say thank you because after I got these it really got me into the hobby and I’ve long since moved on to better gear but you can’t forget about how it all started of course, great video 👍🏿
I noticed all the Sonos products as you turn the volume all the way up it will reduce the low end base to keep the clarity I'd rather be the one in control of that sometimes you just want more punch and you'll accept a small amount of distortion during a loud party or such
4 years later and I just ordered this for $280, throw in a pair of larger bookshelf speakers from Klipsch as well for $130. 5.1.2 set up for just over $400! It’s really reassuring hearing you talking about how well these performed/exceed expectations especially in such a big/open room. Great video!
Do you need a receiver for the speakers or can it just plug into say the tv and work? I’m new to the sound world lol
@@Percival2644 You need a reciever, if you look at the description while buying these they say receiver is needed.
And you mentioned you bought it with your own money?? What the hell was that bro?? LoL. Who says that !?? Lol
You sounded like you memorized the whole script. Be natural bro😮!
Got mine for $200 from Amazon few days ago.
So you would have to cross the speakers over with the sub right at it’s limit. I wish these satellites would at least be rated at 100 hz. Crossing it over at 110-120 seems wrong.
They don't make these anymore sadly :(
Being sold for under $300 now in the US.
Bengal Byte, what screensaver is that in the video? How can I get it?
Thanks for the video with sound test. First question is does the amp cause the harshness that SS amps normally cause with the horns of the Klipsch? I am looking to hook up a Chromecast device to the HDMI of this amp connected to my Klipsch Heresy III to cast audio. Does it work with CC? Currently I have a 8wpc SE tube amp (DIY) paired with Heresy III and KEF Kube 12b subwoofer but could not snare a CC Audio before it went out of the market. Basically want to have Chromecast facility added without replacing my speakers with KEF LS50 wireless and the likes.
For $300 would you recommend this?.
Yes
Just bough this b4 I came n watch ur video! Love ur cat!
Could you please share which speaker wall mount you have been using?
good lookin cat
It is comparable to the All-in-one kit Logitech sells for $300 and Klipsch seems to be selling it as a loss leader. I was very curious as to why and it would seem its because they need a driven-wire setup that most non-enthusiasts or those not interested in the Klipsch portfolio don't want to care about. This is where the real story seems to be.
Hey Bengal, can you link what cords you used to set this up?
What crossover is set for your speakers?
Set to 120hz
link payement please ?
Kudos for klipschy kitten purrrr!
they should put drivers the color of your cat.
hey why bengal byte? are you from west bengal or you just casually used that name
QQQ
Does this set sound better then a Canton Movie 165 set?
Boring 🙄 bro
U boring
Wait until year 3 when it fails to power on. This is a common and known issue with Sonos Amps. And they don't stand behind them.
I've been using their products since 2006 and have had about 20 components. 2 components have failed in that time, both after owning them much longer than 3 years, 1 they replaced for free, the other they charged me a small fee to upgrade to the latest one. Sonos has reached the point of popularity where it's cool to be a hater and spread anecdotal stories of issues like this comment right here /\.
@@TheUnMarkableB Lol. Ok. Go ahead and go and see how many people have weighed in on the Sonos forum about their Sonos Amp failing. It’s not anecdotal…the product was an unreliable and utter failure. And their “small fee to upgrade” was a coupon code, that would result in me having to spend another $500 to replace a product that I barely even used. I’m glad your products have worked. I have 7 units, and have had them going back to 2010, so I’m not a “new user” as you false suggest. But it’s a nice try. Oh, and what about how they monitor your use and force you to update the app? If you’ve been a user for as long as you say you have, you surely remember when they didn’t use the product to collect your personal info?
Thank you for the review. Do you think a Sony STRDH590 is a good paring?
The side speaker are what they actually mean, they need to placed on the side not behind you. And by the way, the center does not have any sub, they are tweeters and mid-range speakers.
I'm looking for the mounts you used. I just bought the same speaker system and paired it with a Sony STRDH590 5.2 Channel 4K HDR AV Receiver. I know very very little about any of it, besides connecting the wires. I hope my receiver choice is both compatible? and correct? Thanks for your help!
Which wall mounts did you use for this
It’s a very good combination. Comparing the sound bar to the Klipsch speakers, is no comparison. The Klipsch speakers with the Sonos amp is the way to go. Bigger speakers fill up a room with sound more than 11 little ones. I’m curious, what was the lowest frequency you measured. And we’re you able to determine how many db’s at your listening position at 50% output, so the amp has headroom? And when the amp is pushed, how does it behave ? At what point did it run out of headroom and clip or run out or gas ?
Can I use a sonos amp to power two klipsh outdoor speakers and two play 1 sonos speakers connected by WiFi? Thank you
Also My house is prewired for 5 ceiling speakers in the living room (3 in front 2 in rear) . I am planning on getting sonos amp and 5 sonance ceiling speakers. Will one amp be able to power the 5 speakers? How would I wire them? Thank you
Is this overkill for desktop computer setup? If so, what are some good desktop speakers?
This cat has to be the presentor of Klipsch! Same colors as the drivers!
how many watts is the subwoofer?
