A beauty that doesn't take valuable space. Sound is not as great as the bigger siblings, still very enjoyable

I don’t have much space for traditional theater speakers, so I was thrilled that Klipsch offers sleek, wall-mountable options that still deliver big sound. I went with the RP-240D as my center speaker and paired it with the RP-140D speakers for the left, right, and surround channels, along with a Klipsch 12” subwoofer. The result is a full, immersive sound experience that works great for movies and music.

Ich habe lange unter den namhaften Herstellern von On-Wall-Boxen nach Boxen gesucht, die meinen Hörgewohnheiten entgegenkommen. Leider boten alle wenig Transparenz und Höhen. Die Klipsch-Boxen haben einen sehr sauberen und transparenten Klang. Stimmen sind gut zu verstehen und die Becken sind eindeutig zu hören, ohne dass die hohen Töne schrill und aufdringlich werden.Ganz nebenbei: gut aussehen tun sie auch noch.

Sounds great as a center with rp-140d's as front right and left. Was a little expensive but decided to go for it. Gibby's has an excellent selection of electronics at reasonable prices. Keep your eye on their website as they have great sales from time to time. I have bought from Gibby's before and will buy from them again.

We purchased these speakers for our rear surround speakers, as we needed a slim wall mounted speaker in this location. Sounds is clear, and impressive considering the depth of speaker. You will need a subwoofer with these speakers, as the lower frequencies are lacking (which is to be expected with a small speaker). Wall mounting was easy. I know that some people have criticized Klipsch for not including a template for wall mounting. I can only attribute that complaint to laziness, as all you need is a measuring tape (or ruler) ands level to get this lined up perfectly. My biggest complaint is price. I recognize that there are not many slim speakers out there, but the premium that you pay over some bookshelf speakers is nuts. If you have the room, a set of bookshelf speakers is a better choice. I did not, so I was stuck paying a higher price. At the time of review the price is now $100 higher per speaker than it was when I purchased.

Compared to my 15-year-old BA towers, these have a really crisp sound; I can actually hear individual instruments and notes I could not detect before. Paired with RP-140D left/right speakers and the Monoprice slim sub (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07R6Y66QZ) makes for a flush-to-wall AV experience that sounds great. They are pricey, but it is hard to find slim-profile speakers.

I've had this for about a month, and it's...OK. It sounds pretty good. There's definitely a size/quality compromise. It doesn't sound anywhere as nice as half-decent tower speakers or even bookshelf speakers. However, it sticks out just a couple inches from the wall and it looks pretty nice. And of course it sounds much better than a TV's speakers.I have a couple of these paired to a subwoofer, I intend to add one more and some smaller speakers to make a 5.1 system. I'll try to update this review later on if/when the speakers ever "break in" to become something much better, the way a couple of reviews say.Edit: After half a year of pretty heavy use, these are still thoroughly "OK." There wasn't any great improvement from break-in.

I picked this up as the center speaker for my PC setup. Impressed with the sound clarity and power. I was surprised how much bigger the speaker is than depicted. But it's still much more compact and slim than a traditional Klipsch speaker.

Due to the layout of my entertainment room, I was looking to add front presence speakers to my setup to make it 5.1.2. The rest of my speakers are Klipsch, so that's were I started looking.I really liked the slim profile of the RP-240D, as well as the flexibility to mount it horizontally. Since my walls are already finished and insulated, I opted to run the speaker wire through raceways instead of doing surgery on the drywall. The horizontal positioning of the speakers not only helped getting the immersive sound I was looking for, but also made it a short, straight shot to run the wire / raceway behind the upper TV (see photo).Installation was straightforward - there are only two wall-mounted screws for each speaker. Based on the positioning on my walls, I did not have any studs exactly in the screw locations so I used #10 screws (per the speaker instructions) and pretty substantial wall anchors. Also, I created my own actual-size template based on the schematic you can download from Klipsch (one suggestion for improvement would be for them to supply an actual-size template). I used my two templates to get the position of the speakers how I wanted relative to the TVs and the movie posters. Then I marked where to drill. Once the wall anchors & screws were in place, I connected the speaker wire and routed it behind the upper TV and down the vertical center raceway (not really visible in the photo) down to my Yamaha RX-A880 receiver.Once everything was connected I connected the Yamaha YPAO mic and ran the automatic sound calibration utility using several listening positions. With everything working properly I installed the horizontal cable raceways to hide the speaker wire running from the speakers to behind the upper TV.I am happy to say that I am VERY PLEASED with the overall sound quality of these speakers, and the overall effect of having presence speakers in my system. It has created a much more immersive quality to movies, and "wall of sound" effect to music when I choose to use 7-channel stereo (vs. 2-channel).I would highly recommend these speakers because they sound great, look great, easy to install, and have multiple installation options (in addition to wall-mount vertical or horizontal, they also come with stands if you want to put them on a shelf. I didn't use my stands).
