    The Klipsch are killing vocal clarity. Honestly pair those Klipsch towers with an SVS subwoofer and you'll be happy. The SVS towers have a lot of bass and adding a subwoofer will just add more bass but the klipsch you 'll get high vocals with deep bass if you pair the right sub. The SVS no doubt are great especially if you don't want to buy a sub!

      @Pohgrey Před 4 lety +3

      If you're using bass management then one set of speakers having more bass than the other is meaningless. It's all about the crossover point and above. That said, I agree with his findings. I've always though the Ultras sounded better than the RFs.

    • @jordansjournal3077
      @jordansjournal3077 Před 4 lety +1

      That’s a very astute comment, imho. To get the best of both worlds as it were, add an SVS subwoofer or another good subwoofer and you’ll have the openness and vocal clarity of the Klipsch and some longer firing bass.
      Klipsch will give you the tight short firing bass, but not the longer type. Maybe not the same mid range as SVS, either. But the clarity on Klipsch is unmistakeable and absent from most other brands. KEF comes close, but not as good in my view. Tannoy is probably the only contender in the price range, that offers similar, if not better.

    What a great job you’ve done at capturing the true essence of what these two models have to offer.
    I think the time invested by SVS assuring that all the driver’s crossover points perfectly matched the mechanical abilities of each driver easily shows in this demonstration with the amount of depth and dynamic range displayed.
    Again... Great job Chris!!!

    This was my take. Klipsch sounded more clear, tighter bass, but brighter. SVS sounded louder, more drop to the base, but more muffled. I think it would come down to personal preference. However, I think the advantages of the SVS can be corrected (calibration, adding a Sub, etc) on on the Klipsch. Not sure that the advantages of the Klipsch can be corrected on the SVS.

    @JPWinters Před 4 lety +11

    I closed my eyes at the start, and was confident the entire time I was listening to the SVS 1st and Klipsch 2nd on every track. I thought the 1st speaker was more balanced, with better sounding mids on vocals and guitars. I thought speaker 2 had incredible dynamics, bass and highs but with the V shaped sound on a graphic EQ. The 1st speaker sounded better on rock and more traditional music. The 2nd speaker sounded better on modern & electronic music. I preferred speaker 1.
    And turns out I predicted them dead wrong. I never thought I would thinking Klipsch would be more balanced & natural! I am not normally a Klipsch guy (more of a Monitor Audio guy).

      I disagree. The first comparison was not conducted fairly because the speaker levels were not matched. If the same amount of power was applied to both speakers, the Klipsch would have killed the SVS because they're way more efficient. That scenario would have put the SVS at a serious disadvantage and their fans would have cried foul.

I found the cross overs to be tested a few times when i was playing video games or older dvds. There is something in the tweeter that seemed to act funny. My unit was used so maybe it was just its time to be repaired. I loved it though. Excellent center channel and it will do toe to toe with the ultra

    Great video per usual man. We will always have our own opinions I guess 😂 I am happy you explained your whole process to make it clearer. Those svs are an engineering masterpiece in alot of ways. Klipsch really needs to work on a three way design on their next flagship. Just curious, have you listened to alter bridge or tremonti at all? You may enjoy their stuff. Cheers man

    Nice, thank you! Well done, now the Klipsch has enough power to wake up. I love both, but SVS looks better, is smaller and has it all in one package. I feel that Klipsch is too demanding on volume levels to really shine. SVS does better job when you play relaxing stuff at medium to low volume.

    The SVS should have better bass because the two 8" drivers are closer to the floor, which provides boundary reinforcement. The basis for this speaker design is over 40 years old and it works. Thank you, Roy Allison.

    First your tests both were good for me. I wold like to see this test with the subs. A Lot of people set their fronts to 50 hertz or higher. 80 hertz is the default for most. I never worry about the bass on front speakers. I just make sure it's good for music. That being said my fronts are custom Cerwin Vegas at 700 RMS. I do have the crossover set to 50 most of the time. Sometimes I will set the receiver to a Front alignment that way the front have full range with no EQ. No body plays their front without the subs unless they are audio audiophiles. Anyways great video.

  • @mozeyaround
    @mozeyaround Před 5 lety +2

    You said it best, they have VERY different signatures. I think it's easy to find great things about each, in this test the SVS for music due to more warmth/fullness, and the Klipsch for Dark Knight due to a bit more detail. There is no right answer when it comes to audio, as it seems there is always a compromise of some sort... Whichever immerses and transports you the best is up to hyper subjectivity.

  • @alainwelter
    @alainwelter Před 2 lety +2

    Thanx for posting. I think the “fuller” sound from the SVS is also because the sub is side firing. I have some older Boston Acoustics with the same design and they are incredible. I would like to see a comparison between the Ultra’s and Definitive Technology to compare apples to apples as BA doesn’t make tower speakers anymore. Listening from my computer it seems that the mids and highs on the Ultra sound a bit more muffled or less clear that the RF7’s. Not sure if that’s what you experienced. I have not listened to these RF 7 Klipsch in person but you’re not going to go wrong with either of these speakers or the Klipsch rf-8000 series for that matter. Once you set them up in your room you’re gonna love either system and most people are not going to be comparing speakers in their room. It just comes down to what you prefer, and price. I am a fan of side firing speakers so I would lean more towards the Ultra’s but there are other choices as well. Also think about getting bipole/dipole surround speakers on the sides for your home theaters. I have not seen many comparisons, but both Klipsch and SVS make some good quality surrounds.

  • @keepingupwiththejones2933

    Chris the beard is looking tight. I can't believe you did a whole another video and explained all the intricacy of speaker and audio calibration . You really care about your viewers. I usually don't watch a second review honestly of the same products but I felt like I owed it to you with all the extra effort and work you put into doing the second comparison. No need to apologize for loving the SVS Ultra Towers. I loved the preamble reminded me of Lincoln's Gettysburg address. 😁😆😄. Seriously though thanks for all you do. KLIPSCH sounds good for me on upbeat pop music because of their brightness but for overall diverse musicality I prefer the SVS Ultra Towers. They tend to let the natural sounds of the instruments and vocals come through without coloring the sound like the KLIPSCH. Too bright for my taste. The home theater test scenes are too hard to really hear a difference over CZcams as you point out, but for sure on the music you can hear the difference.

  • @SoundSpectrum
    @SoundSpectrum Před 5 lety +1

    I think the reason we hear more bass output from the SVS is because of the speaker placement with the side woofers having the corners of the room to impact on. Whereas the Klipsch are direct firing to the LP. Klipsch sound really clear on the top end and lack some deep end. SVS sound very neutral but have more bass output. thanks for the re-test.

    Great video, I have Klipsch RF 82 II, RC 62 II, RS 52 II, SA500, SVS PB3000. So yes I could hear the difference between the SVS & RF7-III, the SVS had more mid bass, and not as bright in the highs while the Klipsch give you a more live frontend sound stage with crisp highs and more laid back mid bass. Both are great speakers, however I would still choose the Klipsch paired with an SVS sub for a complete packaged sound. Keep up the awesome job HTD!!
