- RP-640D Black Home Speaker Matte Black

Bought this to complete my 5.1 surround setup. I have 2 rear in wall speakers and a subwoofer, and this completes the sound coming from the front (LCR channel). The dialogue sounds clear and crisp

I received the RP-640D, and a pair of RP-240Ds, to use as a center channel and left/right speakers in Nov. 2018. I needed a very "flat" center channel to go behind a spandex (acoustically transparent) projection screen, and so I just paired the 240s with it for consistency. To be honest, this setup was kind of a "downgrade" of my home theater, since I had recently moved. There just wasn't room in the new place for my long-serving JBL center channel, a 3-way behemoth: so I had hoped that this Klipsch and its smaller sisters would be an adequate substitute. For six months, I had enjoyed this set with a lot of unspoken reluctance. The richness just wasn't there, and there was no sense of depth to them. Flash forward to last week, when I feel like they finally "broke in." I only use my speakers for maybe 3-5 hours per week of sustained use, so maybe that is why the break-in period was so prolonged... But WOW. Starting now, they are a totally different experience: rich resonance, precise treble with capable mid-range and lows. I feel like I'm in an OMNI theater with these! (Spacing them far apart from each other certainly helps with this effect.) Paired with a subwoofer to round-out the missing bass can definitely help with certain content. But in my tiny new home theater space (12' x 14'), this fills the room just fine on its own as a very satisfying center channel, and its placement DIRECTLY behind the screen;s lower-third makes for a compelling illusion of immersiveness! This speaker is the real deal, Klipsch power in a small, thin package! I wouldn't put it up against other higher-end offerings, but for the price and in the small space it takes up, I find it incredibly rewarding.

Decent center channel speaker. Sound quality is just okay.

Space for most families like mine is always at a premium. 8 years ago I purchased an entry level set of Onkyo speakers the Onkyo SKS-HT870 Home Theater Speaker System , although these still continue to perform flawlessly, I needed something that took up considerably less space in my living room. So took my TV off the large stand, mounted it to the wall and sought out speakers that would not only give superior sound, but offer a much smaller footprint for my cramped living room. This fit the bill perfectly. On most home theater forums, Klipsch is a well respected brand, so once I discovered these, it was pretty much a no-brainer. Installed only a few weeks ago, they are still in the process of breaking in, the sound will become richer as time progresses. This particular speaker I chose as my center speaker, so even if the audio playing is mono, the number of speakers playing sound is greatly increased from my old center channel speaker. For my left and right speakers I used: Klipsch RP-240D Black Surround Home Speaker Matte Black . After running a few quick comparisons between my old and new speakers, I found the overall sound quality to be far superior, despite the speakers not yet fully being "broken in". So if space is an issue and your looking for great and quality sound for your home theater, look no further....

The box came all mangled up. I wrote to the seller and got nothing back. I asked for an extra speaker cover cause the one was damaged from delivery and so that screws were missing. I finally get to set the speakers up and it turns out one of the speakers sounds like its blown! I'm very unhappy with this expensive purchase.

$500 speaker, buzzing loudly after 3yrs use in home theater. Never dropped or over-powered. Disappointed, from this brand especially.

Initial shipment lacked the grille cover for the speaker. I went through Amazon's instruction to work directly with Klipsch and they quickly resolved this as a covered warranty item and shipped a replacement with the complete parts as well as a return shipping label. Happy with the end product and final installation but look out for it going on sale as the price varies over time here on Amazon.

Im a sound snob. Really hard to find a quality sound bar. Using these around my flat LEDTV. Without the giant boxes, modern speakers miss the mark on acoustics. Intelligibility with these speakers is disappointing. With an array of subs, they work for music. Pricy for what they are.

Très bonne qualité de son et parfait pour des setup atmos plafond et pour des haut parleurs arrière a espace restreint (arrière du divan) et autre

Typisch sehr laute und sehr gut klingende Hornlautsprecher - Bass ist natürlich aufgrund des fehl. Korpus mau - aber für Fronthigh oder seitl. SR klasse und gut klingend - Höhen und Mitten sind klar und deutlich. Als Front, Center oder hintere Surround würde ich Sie nicht einsetzen. Werden von mir betrieben an Klipsch Cornwall IV, RC 64 III und ergänzen sich hervorragend - zudem tolle Optik neben dem Flachbildschirm als Front-High. Die Anbringung als Wandlautsprecher ist nicht gut bzw. schlecht gelöst, da sich die LS kaum wieder aus den hinteren Öffnungen lösen - ich habe fast ne halbe Std. rumgeackert - und meine Wand sah danach aus wie... nun ja. Optik & Sound entschädigt dann aber! Klasse, ich bin sehr zufrieden!!! Also kaufen... :)

Edles Design trifft auf klaren Klang und satte Leistung! Ich habe je 1 rechts und links neben dem Fernseher senkrecht an der Wand montiert und betreibe diese mit einem Verstärker der 150W pro Kanal liefert. Der Klang ist sehr sauber, die Höhen nie zu hoch oder störend in den Ohren, aber deutlich erkennbar. Die Mitten sind sehr ausgewogen und die Boxen geben eine enorme Leistung/Lautstärke ab. Ohne Musik abzuspielen aber laut aufgedreht gibt es keinerlei Rauschen. Die Kabel können ohne Bananenstecker o.ä. direkt mit den Schraubklemmen befestigt werden, ich habe 2,5mm2 verwendet. Die Montage an der Wand gestaltete sich problemlos. Ich nutze diese Boxen zusammen mit 2 Klipsch RP-280F und könnte nun damit einen Club beschallen. Bedenkenlos zu empfehlen!

Great sound for such small speaker, Fast delivery, would buy again

Wahnsinn was aus der recht kleinen Box für ein Klang kommt. Ist seinen Preis wirklich wert.
