I'm returning my energies right as we speak.. and gonna give these a shot, my energies sounded crisp clear and beautiful with my polk fronts and hafler sub.. but a normal levels certain frequencies had them buzzing and popping..... in a tiny room they might do ok as 7.1 one with better fronts and sub like I said.. but on there own or in a full size living room they are completely worthless to me

The Klipsch Quintet III system is way better than the Energy Micros. I know they are not the same as the classic, but I was offered the Energy Micros since the classic was discontinued. After comparing the two systems, there was no question that I had to return the Energy Micros and pay the associated "restocking fee."

Oh man, Im also stuck trying to make this decision.And I think Klipsch owns Energy by the way...

I'd personally wouldn't go with Bose. You can do a lot better. Look into any of the energy 5.1 systems which will be cheaper and have far superior sound and build quality in the same size package. Or if you can swing an extra 200 look into the SVS prime satellite speaker 5.1 speaker package in black oak for $1000. With out a doubt the best bang for the buck under 1k

I have had my Klipsch Synergy F-30 Series for 4-months. I have totally enjoyed them. The sound has been crisp and clean. For the value of $160, in my opinion, you can't beat it.

I haven't listened to the Klipsch 100 watt sub yet but in my opinion there is no floor stand speaker that can replace a good subwoofer. Maybe the super high end speakers but nothing I have heard yet. I own these along with a pair of 52's and 42's. I would recommend the 52's and spend a little more on a sub. Both the Klipsch 350w and 400 or 450w sound amazing. If I simplify I will be keeping the 52's over the others.

Actually since your using the RF-42 II the recommended rears are the RB-41 II. I have the RF-42 up front 3 of them.nand a set of the RB-51 as surround L&R; and the RB-41 II as surround back. If they seem to over power you can always turn the lvl down on their channel. I bought the RB-51 II for better sound with all zone and channel playback of music. Love my klipsch!

Kind of an outdated discussion, since Klipsch has updated the Quintets to a new "IV" model, but it's worth pointing out that the Take Classic speakers are much less efficient than the Quintets and present a greater challenge for an amplifier to drive.

Hey Slater, I pretty much have the same setup you just described, got the Son STRDG 720 last week and just purchased these speakers today. Which speakers do you think would be a good purchase to convert this system into 7.1? I have two large polk bookshelves at home although they are a bit old, what do you think?

I picked up the Energy Take Classic 5.1 system and paired it with my Yamaha receiver. These speakers sound amazing and are a huge improvement over my old Sony 5.1 system.

I prefer Klipsch. The logitech doesn't have as rich sound in mid-ranges which I play a lot. I purchased the z623 and compared it side by side to my friend's Klipsch and much preferred the Klipsch. The sound is louder, broader and richer. I am returning the z623.

I had the same question when buying my Klipsch speakers. When talking to the Klipsch people I was told that the technology for the quintet systems were all the same and that they would all sound the same. They gave me the impression that there weren't different versions (only one Klipsch quintet). I'm not quite sure if this was true or which version I have, if there are different versions of the quintet, but the ones I got sound good and I purchased them from Amazon about 6 months ago.

The Klipsch SW-350 works well for me. There are bigger ones available but this should suffice for most rooms.

I just bought the Sony 920 to go with a Klipsch Quintet III 5-speaker surround system and a Polk PSW110 subwoofer. I am VERY happy. It's the best sound I've ever had. The Quintet III's are on the low end for power and price, but they are still outstanding speakers.

I called Energy support to get opinion on which one is better. In support person's opinion, Take Classic is little better as the speakers are little larger and fill the room (with sound) little better.

Theses headphones are very good but now i have found that the monster n-tune and N-pulses are THE best headphones i own.The n-tunes maybe the best because of sound and size.my advice is if you have the money buy one of the monsters,if the akg's are cheaper then the akg 67's are really nice.but my advice would be to buy one of the monsters because they sound great with ALL kinds of music. Theyy should not be that much more than the akg's,let me know how everything turns out please, I'm very interested to hear from you and your opinion on your pick.

Personally I like the deep sound Velodyne better. The bass is truly full. They are both good choices. Also note, both of them may come out of your ear if you are walking or exercising. The ear pieces are a bit different on both accounts, Velodyne even more than the Klipsch.

Definitely a better speaker than the Infinity and Klipsch. I would not but Klipsch because their speakers tend to miss out on mid-range. The Polks will work better with higher end receivers and will shine with separate amplifiers.

I agree with the Klipsch SW-350. It's a good subwoofer for the price. I also recommend looking into the SVS subwoofers, with SVS you get the most bang for your buck IMO. If you call SVS they will advise you on which sub to get to best match your budget, room and speakers. Congratulations on you Quintet speakers!
