The Reference Series is a level above these. And they cost considerably more.

I am pleased with these bad boys they hold everything my only I 135 watts per channel gives it. Now are they better than the reference series not sure. I just brought the 52 reference center channel and I LIKE it!!! The tweeters are really high with the f30's.I'm so happy with klipsch but now trying to save my hearing.

Pardon my spelling but Hermann Kardon speakers definitely compare. I have the 2nd generation 2.1 speaker system.

Thank you for your inquiry. As we do not maintain technical specs for the competitions' speaker systems, this is a hard question to quantify. We can tell you that along with PolkAudio and Paradigm, Klipsch is one of our main competitors, and as such, our products will stand up in comparison with performance, quality, and craftsmanship. Our flagship XL series has been highlighted on sites like Audioholics and CNet, with rave reviews. Fluance uses Audio-grade MDF wood (medium density fiberboard) to construct our cabinets and high end components to fabricate our drivers and crossover units. They provide the best option for both music and home theater sound reproduction. The down-firing passive subwoofers in the towers provide you with an omni-directional distribution of bass frequencies that lend to a deeper immersion into the entertainment, while the neodymium tweeters will provide the crisp high-end frequency that you would expect with a quality speaker system. We invite you to try them so you too can see and hear what others have already enjoyed.

Thanks for your question. Almost any speaker stand will work for these. This is a fantastic sounding speaker. World Wide Stereo is 36 years old and a very proud Klipsch dealer.

Currently, I am using Klipsch F-30s for my fronts and these RF-52s for my rears in my 5.1 setup. While everyone has a different ear and taste in their music; I personally find these to excel with the highs as a previous reviewer mentioned. The F-30s have a much fuller sound and do better with the mids and lows. For music purposes, I would suggest either the F-30s with a decent center or these with a sub to help with the lows. As always, there is no right answer; It's all a matter of opinion.

No these are floor standing models only. But in the same series there are some models which can be hung. I would suggest buying the surrounds that way they can be hung there are teh exact same speaker only without the tower portion.

You are correct those are the series 4 version of the speakers. I choose those because of the built-in wall mounts/stands on the series 4...and the price difference didn't hurt either. I can't tell the difference in sound quality.

Yes it will... Although they are small but the quality and crispness of the speakers comes through. You can increase the output of speakers to fit a 28x20 hall. That's what I have... Klipsch hasn't disappointed me and honestly I am impressed.

I own the RB-61 II, which are not the same, but still have the Klipsch sound signature that so many consider extremely bright and fatiguing. What I have noticed is that they are way too bright with very bad sources. For example, bad 128kbps mp3s. With FLAC, CDs or DD and DTS soundtracks they are just magnificent. Every time I listen to music I am familiar with, a smile appears on my face. They simply sound awesome.

I cannot really report on a reference to the older S-10 speakers as these are new to me, however I can say that I switched from a Bose system the Synergy series and the change has been nothing short of dramatic. I have a pair of F-30, (1) C-20, and a pair of S-10s. The only real issue for me is the weight of these. It was difficult to find a set of floor standing stands that really can stand up to them, but once mounted they sound great.

I have 62's as my surrounds, so I cannot say for certain. That said, the center channel is an excellent speaker, comparing favorably to my much more expensive polk CS 350. I suspect they have the same tweeter, which is the most important factor in speaker matching. They are close enough where you could probably only detect the difference with an analyzer.

Although most would consider these a good match...you should try to listen before you buy. Klipsch uses a horn tweeter. While most like the "bright" highs some...esp on the Music side find them too "bright". Klipsch are very efficient if not, the most efficient in the industry. Meaning less power the speakers still sound fantastic. Hope that helps.

Klipsch has bigger speakers 12" and has deeper bass resonance when placed on hard floor. It has better bass tonals than JBL dancehall speakers. My neighbors complained to my landlord when I saw Jurassic Park when it was coupled with my Bose 901's. I literally saw the water disturbance on my cup of water.

The two 6.5" woofers are probably equal to one 8" woofer. It's all about getting the most "full" sound possible out of it. These speakers produce amazing sound, thanks to having the two woofers. Most all non horn loaded bookshelf speakers are not very efficient, that being said, they are still an easier load than large driver non efficient floorstanding speakers. Cheers!

These will work nicely as main (L-R)speakers. Elevating off of the floor with stands, on bookshelf, etc. will be a consideration for most. They lack deep bass, but sound fine never the less. A subwoofer can fill in if desired. I would suggest avoiding excessive bass enhancement settings at elevated power input levels, to prevent damage, and improve sound quality.
