Review: Vor dem Kauf waren andere Lautsprecher im Einsatz und ich habe es einfach nicht erwartet, das der Klang so sehr verbessert wird. Die Lautsprecher wurden vorerst frontal benutzt und durch die phänomenale Empfindlichkeit klingen diese bei gleicher Lautstärke viel kraftvoller und sauberer. Später wurden die großen Frontlautschprecher gekauft und diese werden als Surround benutzt. Jeder der mein Klipsch Surround-Setup einmal gehört hat, wurde restlos begeistert.
Review: These look a lot bigger in pictures than in person but they sound wonderful. The imaging is immaculate and they have that bright detailed Klipsch sound. I use them in my 5.1 setup but often I will use them in direct stereo as the imaging is so good. They produce a respectable amount of bass for their size but I would recommend a subwoofer for the best experience. I am very satisfied with my purchase. Bear in mind that these are quite bright, as in treble. I'm 51 and I can't hear above 14000hz so if I find them bright, they are quite bright. In a way it enhances the detailed sound. For my ears these are truly excellent.

**Q: Would these be over kill as computer speakers? Placed about 32" away?**
A: Thanks for your question. The RP-500M II will work but as passive speakers need to be connected to an amplifier. Consider using powered speakers which can be driven from the computer headphone output.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by G***S on 27 January 2026*

I love the clarity of these speakers in comparison to others. After purchasing HD6 speakers and listening to them, I realized the silk dome tweeters they had were too soft and they would muffle the clarity of the high frequencies. For example: it was difficult for me to distinguish the clear sound of a high-hat symbol even when playing music on CD. Even DVD movies sounded muffled. Very frustrating when other speakers and devices I own had much more clarity than these HD6 speakers. I missed the clarity I was so used to hearing. So I returned them and purchased these Klipsch RP-500M II speakers. The long-lost clarity of my audio is back! These Klipsch RP-500M II sound amazing when paired with a subwoofer. I am using an S8 subwoofer. I am using a FOSI MC351 amplifier with a DAC to power these speakers. These speakers are not powered, or active. They are passive speakers, which is why I need to use an amplifier with them. This set up can get quite loud, @ 165 watts per channel, which is perfect for me. These RP-500M II use titanium diaphragm, LTS, with Tractrix Horn making for some crisp, bright, high-clarity high frequencies. The bass drivers provide perfect delivery of mid range frequencies. These speaker’s high quality is a very good value for their price. Especially if you can get them on a discount. I was looking for a set of speakers that would deliver high quality sound and I finally found them.
