Does anyone know how these speakers compare to the Klipsch KHO-7 Outdoor speakers?

I cannot compare the two sets, but I can tell you this: the Definitive Technology AW 6500 has a 10" woofer that reflects back off the mounted wall and gives incredible bass presence to the sound, plus a 6.5 mid-speaker as well as the 1" tweeter. The speakers you want to compare with these has a 5.5 inch woofer and a 1" tweeter. I don't see how the Klipsch can possible compare in fidelity.

Klips in my opinion are overpriced speakers and if you want clear highs and descent bass I will strongly suggest that you try definite technology. Buy then from a store that you return them if you are not pleased. Remember speaker placement is critical specially with outdoor systems.

Used or new the altek landing VS_4121 speakers are my favorites. They are a smaller 2-1 setup with a Very good sound . Better than the 4122s.

tsi 400s are comparatively better than tsi 300. Klipsch is little over priced, but will give the same performance. I would go with Polk speakers especially tsi400's(not that I own them)

I wouldn't be able to give you a comparison because I haven't had the opportunity to hear these new towers. They are beautiful and seem to be well received from people who own them. I can say that the DV84 towers are outstanding with excellent mid range. The Bass is shockingly full for a tower speaker. I think either speaker would serve you well. The PL-89 is newer,and appears to have a nicer finish. The BIC company has been making solid speakers for many years so it's your choice.

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.

I have not compared them, but the A5 from Bowers & Wilkins is the best sounding wireless speaker I have listened to.

I have two speakers outside that are about 10ft and 15ft from the base station. The other two are indoors and are about 25ft from the base station. I haven't had any issues with them in receiving signals passing through walls. One note, if not plugged in and using battery power you will notice the speaker quality deteriorate over time due to batteries running down low.Simple speakers with easy set up. I use them all the time for outside. Well worth the cost without spending time/money setting up wired. Don't expect a Bose-like experience with these. They do what they are supposed to do.

For speakers in this price point, they would do quite well as surround speakers. I brought my pair of AW150s in for the winter and am using them in the home office. They come with a base plate to be free standing as well as wall mounted. With a Pinnacle sub-woofer providing low bass, they sound quite nice. Do they sound as great as the Klipsch RS-41s used for the home theatre? No. But the Klipsch cost 5 time as much.

I wouldn't recommend as the interior parts are not suitable for any outdoor conditions. I would recommend Polk Audio Atrium 6 speakers, I have two of them and the sound is phenomenal.

They have some that resemble stones. Also, you can get other actual outdoor speakers. Most are set in a box. When in doubt, don't purchase.

these speakers get very loud. i have never tried them outside, but i am almost positive they will be loud enough. in my bedroom they dotn go past 25 percent - as that is plenty loud enough.

Not enough, in my opinion... they look like great speakers, but when I placed them outside I could not go a few hundred feet from them and hear well..the range of the bluetooth is not that great either- I sent mine back..

I have the KEFs and the ML Electromotion ESLs. Both are very good but I think the KEF is probably the better speaker overall. That said, if you have the right room either will be good. I seriously considered sending the KEFs back right up until the last second. Since keeping them I've worked more on placement and coupling to the stands and that's squeezed extra performance from the KEFs which makes me glad I have them. The logan's will be happiest if the room is larger and you can get them well away from the walls, I'm able to give them about 5 feet behind them and I don't feel like that's quite enough. I had an older pair of Aerius i in a larger room where I was able to give them 7-8 feet and the presentation always blew me away. With my smaller room now I haven't been able to extract the same magic from the newer ESLs even though I feel the new ESLs are tonally well beyond the quality of the older Aerius. The KEFs will make use of all the space you can give them too, but their different approach doesn't require it as much and with their limited bass extension they'll be happier in a smaller room.

I would have to say the sound quality for sure. I've had a lot of cheapy logitechs that although sounded decent these blow the doors off of the 50$ models. Klipsch is a very high quality brand and these are awesome. I was skeptical too but after I plugged them in I noticed immediately the difference in sound quality.

What is your use? Is it for a large outdoor installation? How far away are the speakers from the audience/listeners? The Klipsch AW-650 are pretty efficient, but I can tell you more with better specifics. Thanks,

Are you using for indoor? I bought for outdoor movies. You definately want external speakers for this. I bought some cheap ones on recommendation first for about $50, and they were junk. Returned and bought Klipsch - ProMedia 2.1 Speaker System, and couldn't be happier. I use for outdoor movies, kids etc., and the sound is great. Projectors is a snap, couldn't be happier with the purchase, and the screen I bought as well. HDMI will cary the audio over. Not sure about the 3.5mm

They woould be very bright, crisp and clear and would diffently need a subwoofer. I've always been a Klipsch fan and would recommend something larger for the main speakers if you have the room and the budget but overall these would work really well.
