The Klipsch RP 600M were my favorite speakers before I switched to actives (Adam Audio A7V) in late 2022. I liked my 600M even better than my LS50 Metas.
@@Zeos2nd As long as you are given a license that grants you the right to use the music how you please, you are in the legal right to use it forever, they can't take it back. If they do try to and tell CZcams to flag all videos, they are in the wrong, and you should counter-claim. But if the license is unclear, and it just says "royalties free" in the title, it is basically all right reserved.
I love when you review speakers; wish you'd do it more often. Your review of the Klipsch RF-7 III was one of the reasons I bought 3 of them (for music and my home theater LCR). I have a pair of these RP-600M II's for my front wides, side surrounds, and rear surrounds, and your comments are spot-on. Keep up the great work!!
They are just a harder thing to process. The size plays a part plus the setup is a lot harder and more fixed. I can assess headphones and IEMs while shopping
Another great review Zeos! My first speakers were the Klipsch R15M’s, then the RB81II. But imo the R15M’s had better balance. Always surprised me what that little 5 1/4 could do.
I have the 160M and really enjoy them but they were also a steal at around $200usd. Would love to hear a comparison but I can't see myself paying the difference to upgrade, even if it seemed worthwhile.
You know I just went out and bought 12 of these.. I am going to fill my basement with and drive them with the emotiva gen3 7😊 channel 200w channel amplifier.. in the mean power gig is the pioneer LX505.. and this just in my basement you know for concrete walls 1 inch carpeted concrete floors ended open rafter wood ceiling.. Very enjoyable video thanks so much I did enjoy it.. now listen to some real music by Genesis such as Twilight alehouse the 2008 remix it's enough to blow your ears ensure peace pipe with with something in it that is now become very legitimate to use and expand your existence with..
Thanks for your review. I’m looking at these for a home theater/light music listening for the fam. My next door neighbor gave me a SVS PB12 NSD sub I plan on using with them.hopefully they work in my room. I’ll be about 11ft away.
I have the Mk1 speakers. Added GR Research upgrade and additional bracing to the cabinet. Now they are up there with the best bookshelf speakers I have heard.
I had these 600M II's pretty far out from the walls first, but then began moving them closer and closer. Sound just kept improving. They really need a wall behind them, and a very, very mild toe-in. After one day of listening to these... I absolutely love them! They pair wonderfully with a Klipsch R-155SW sub, as expected. Got this pair for about 700 euros, normally they go for almost 900 here. Walnut version, looks pretty good... Not about 900 euros good, but still - good. Oh, and my pair is spread out pretty wide - they seem work better setup like that. I prefer the sound without the grilles on. Bass without a subwoofer isn't good enough for... Anything, really. It rolls off so early that you're losing a ton of "meat". I use a 70 Hz crossover setting, seems to work great. Any music or movie I've heard so far has been amazing. Music sounds alive, like the artists/bands were playing in my living room - like I wasn't listening to speakers. Soundstage is WIDE, and is detailed. Can easily tell where each instrument is playing. They fill my living room really well! Sound isn't too aggressive, but has that exciting factor I was looking for after using a set of calmer speakers for almost a decade. I really like these. Many people don't, but I certainly do.
I stumbled on pure gold with my RP-600Ms by adjusting the tilt back so the speakers are aimed 6-8 inches above my ears. This expanded the soundstage and imaging . Worth a try.
@@blue6point62 After writing my original comment, I have moved mine closer together, keeping the mild toe-in. Went through just about any other variant of placement possibilities in my living room, except for the tilting you mentioned.
sounds like your theory is also working it's way into passive speakers like with subs when you have to crawl around the floor to find the best spot for the bass.
Your reviews are awesome; entertaining education. Hope you could help me out. I have JBL 590s and really enjoy them, but they take up too much space in my room. I have 21” subs to cover the low end, but I need a bookshelf for size constraints that will get me as close to the sound of the 590s as possible. I tried the 530s but they just don’t do it. What bookshelf will get me the closest to the 590s?
I have the rp6000 towers and I love them, but I fell for the online anti-Klipsch BS and bought some Elacs and JBLs and what-not.. all sounded way too neutral compared to the Klipsch, really no fun to listen to. Im back to the Klipsch. If they are paired with a bright amp they can get fatiguing, but toeing them out fixes it.
I'm tring to find the BEST left and right channel bookshelf speakers under $1000/pair for me and I'm having trouble. Help! Any recommendations? I want something that gives me a large and accurate soundstage, clarity and depth, high detail retrieval.
Surprised you haven't treated the back wall. The towers in the back and sides definitely affect your final sound. I know you have limited space. But a dedicated room with some treatments would make very good speakers sound great.
I think the Dali Oberon 3 are a much better sound overall from what I’ve listened. I own the Klipsch The Sevens by the way😏. I was thinking of getting the Dali Oberon 3 and the SVS wireless Pro Soundbase… but it would have been more money🤷🏾♂️
I hear you brother! The Klipsch RP600M were so blah that I bought single driver speakers out of spite. Where the vocals at!? Why do guitars sound like plastic junk!? Anyways, the speakers are called OGY and they eat Klipsch RP600M for breakfast.
What about the Ohm Walsh 2000 I was saving up to buy? Those fit my cabin, the price is good and I can easily move them so they do not get burned if this mountain ever has a fire. I have a Von Schweikert ten inch 800 KVA subwoofer also. That would go with these. But on either side of a great fireplace I like idea of floor standers.
There is a misconception that it's a horn Tweeter still, it technically is no longer a compression horn. It's actually just a tweeter with a rubberized cone to help disperse the frequency
Boy do I miss your play list speaker demos. I know CZcams kicks you off and you need money and sound over CZcams isn't the best but I still miss it. But I can't afford to pay to get it back.
Doesn't Monster Cat sell one of those services where you can use their audio in your video with no fear of copyright? i dunno why monster cat, that was just the first that popped in my head
@@Zeos2nd Well, another commenter mentioned streambeats, which is pretty much the least likely chance of ever getting a copyright strike, so there's that
Bought a pair a month ago They are not near a wall and within 3 feet of me no option to change that They blow the Polk monitor 40 series 2 outta the water But I am looking for a sub
You're exactly the type of reviewer Joe n Tell ranted about. Everything is the "best" backed up only by your onslaught of F Bombs and zero evidence motivated by your greed of audio equipment.
@@Zeos2nd take some measurements. Do some comparisons. Win over the more technically inclined audience. You have a plethora of gear; you can really do a huge service to some lesser known but we'll engineered brands.

Found a pair of original RP600M's locally. Was my first Klipsch purchase. Paid $175, worth every damn penny.
Wow, what a deal!
Too bad you couldn't afford a new one.
@@yournightmare9999 Not understanding your comment...
@@squared80 I don't understand you too
@@yournightmare9999 lol, dipshit
Klipsch is the brand that made me start paying attention to audio hardware
I love it much better if you don’t have to pause the music every 3 seconds haha. Those speakers are absolutely massive in every way possible!
Working on it
The Klipsch RP 600M were my favorite speakers before I switched to actives (Adam Audio A7V) in late 2022. I liked my 600M even better than my LS50 Metas.
streambeats is the only copyright free id trust, as they actually published a contract for its use for everyone to download.
Thanks for being amazing

FINALLY a pair of passive speakers. Thank you
Bet those would perform incredibly well in a medium size room with walls on all sides.

Yes all speakers do needs subs. I have JBL 4367s with 15” woofers and still use two subs highpassed at 60hz.

Man... I WISH mine would be 5 1/4.
Great video. I love klipch ❤ i use the klipsch RF7MK3, r115, RB81MK2 & RC64MK3 😍
The Shape of Sound ..the sequel ☕️🍕👍

Would love to see a review of the Monolith Encore series.
wasnt until i used a tube preamp along with a streamer did i understand the levels with the rp600m....
I watched this on 0.25 speed, from the point where you recommended it and to the end. It was an experience.
Any plans on testing the new Q Acoustics 5020?
Tubey goodness. Love that. You make me laugh
Better than a sound bar😏
Issue is the lack of internal bracing. My pair start singing on certain midrange and upper bass frequencies despite two subs
Right on.. Never regret subscribing.. Keep it up!

i still have my rp 160s
maybe its time to upgrade.
not sure which bookshelf yet
How high above ear level do you place your side surrounds?
loved it
Z, do you have a retro speaker review channel??? if not, please make one :) Like review a pair of original Advents!
Id release here

I have a pair of Klipsch from the 90's... this model that I have really suck
They're selling these as "bookshelf speakers". You need damn big bookshelves to fit these...
You should definitely get the BACCH-SP for review!😉🙏
NRD in his review mentioned they are fatigue. and some say the mark one sounds more opened
Don't have mk1 to compare unfortunately

Best z review in a month
You should go into the Marantzs crossover and set it to 50 or so then up the low ends in the manual eq it really enhanced my polks on my pioneer 👌🤘
Do you prefer these speakers or the nines for best sounding?
There is a misconception that it's a horn Tweeter still, it technically is no longer a compression horn. It's actually just a tweeter with a rubberized cone to help disperse the frequency
Dude, you live the audio enthusiast's dream lol. I'm ordering the mki's. Fuck em.

Yooo Z can you give me the info on that anime figure on the white tower 3:08 mark please
Could it be, that these like the Klipsch R-50M are really 4 Ohm Speakers?!
surly testing speakers surrounded by other speakers affects the sound?
Ayup mate….what was the track playing whilst you was talking bout placement? I liked it!
Doesn't Monster Cat sell one of those services where you can use their audio in your video with no fear of copyright?

I shuffled a monster cat on Spotify for a cooking video and it was claimed, so lost faith.
@@Zeos2nd Well, another commenter mentioned streambeats, which is pretty much the least likely chance of ever getting a copyright strike, so there's that
Darnit. I ordered headphones & forgot to use your link. F
Bought a pair a month ago
They are not near a wall and within 3 feet of me no option to change that
They blow the Polk monitor 40 series 2 outta the water
But I am looking for a sub
Now do the 500m II's. Even better performance to price ratio, and you don't need to sit 9 feet away!
Can you review the new m15s dap
I was going to get these, but i dont like their center design. Instead, im probably getting SVS ultras
Very imteresting
You sure they are not Acoustic Transducers?
I think a direct competitor to this series would be the monitor audio silver 7g series.
What's the name of the soundtrack playing at 10:08
you still have the swan m300 MKii?
Klipsch or MoFi Source 10s?
I have the rp6000f and i have found th issue on my amp, not warm enough!
Ever hear of seperate bass and treble?
Any plans for a new REview episode on your 2nd channel?
Yes I'm just lazy, sorry
Dude, please do Heco Aurora 300!! Holy fucking shit these speakers are amazing for $400
That copyright free music sounds like a Nine inch Nails rip-off a bit LoL
Can you play Muzak in your videos without getting copyright violations?
Depends
Music (14:46)?
Name of the song at 10:20? Thanks
I watch your videos in x 1.75 speed lol
we found mark 1,,, rp600m,,, more alive,,, than this mark2
