Product Description
Comprised of three LCR (left, center, right) speakers and two satellites for surrounds, the Quintet SL incorporates over 60 years of class-leading research and development experience. In fact, it utilizes the same cutting-edge technology as Klipsch professional cinema products, which are chosen by leading cinema operators around the world.Each magnetically shielded LCR speaker employs dual 3.5-inch high-output woofers and a 0.75-inch aluminum dome tweeter mated to an exclusive Tractrix horn, a design that delivers genuine lifelike sound as well as produces more output using less energy. Each also offers easy keyhole wall mounting and includes a pedestal foot for free-standing use as a left/right main speaker or center channel.The two surround satellites are the same speakers featured in the Quintet Microsystem. Each utilizes a 3.5-inch long-throw woofer for remarkable detail and clarity and a 0.75-inch aluminum dome tweeter coupled to a MicroTractrix Horn for precise high frequencies. Additionally, these magnetically shielded satellites feature a swiveling pedestal foot for convenient wall mounting or bookshelf placement.In order to create the low-frequency power you can hear and feel, Klipsch recommend pairing the Quintet SL up with Klipsch Sub-12 subwoofer. The Sub-12 reaches deeper and hits harder thanks to a 12-inch, down-firing driver coupled to a highly efficient BASH amplifier.In addition to using premium components throughout, the Quintet SL has a modern, refined industrial design. While the LCRs and satellites feature a dark gray finish with medium gray accents, the Sub-12 is available in a black ash vinyl finish with titanium accents.

Good speakers for bedroom home theater setup November 26, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I'm using these speakers, in combination with an SVS SB12-Plus subwoofer, for a home theater setup in my master bedroom. It's working out perfect for me. The speakers definitely need the help of a subwoofer to cover the bass range, but they handle the rest quite well.
I've had a Klipsch-based surround system(reference series; RF-3, RC-3 and RS-3) in my front room for many years now and have been quite happy with them. So when I was shopping for my bedroom system, I started working my way up the Klipsch line-up until I found the right size, sound and price point; and this is what I settled on. I am quite happy with the end product and would highly recommend this system to others.
 Sound good, but not perfect November 24, 2008

I got these in a package deal with a SUB-12. They're attached to a H/K AVR-354. Could be the receiver, because I'm not completely impressed with that either.
Because I've read other reviews where the reviewer proceeds to include everything in their house that has absolutely nothing to do with the review of the product they're reviewing(in an effort to try to impress the world's internet readers), I'm going to throw in a few things myself. In the room next to my stereo is a nice mixer (KitchenAid 4.5 quart, Target catalog # 10661166). This mighty mixer is attached to an incredible Monster Power - 8 outlet blackout powercenter surge protector(MP HDP 900). In the same room is a 1,520,923 foot big screen tv by Yalos Diamond. In the garage is a Bugatti Veyron. All of these things have absolutely nothing to do with my review of the AVR-354, I just wanted you to know that I have these items because I want to impress you. Thank you.

Well OK, so you are reading this anyhow. This speaker package is simply amazing. I "downgraded" from full size (and space taking) Infinity Betas, to these wonderful noisemakers, and I am glad I did. If you want large room sound in a small space, these will more than do the trick. I paired mine with a Yamaha 10" sub, running through a Sony STR-800 (7.1). They really brought out Sony's Dynamic Sound Stage Technology(the main reason I bought this particular reciever). Watch Heat during the bank robbery, and you can hear the shells falling around you. If you are an audiophile and actually own a super audio CD format player (guilty), these speakers will make you feel like you are sitting with the band. They do not have a "tin" sound like most small speakers, and they do not need a very robust sub to cover lower end frequencies. I was very pleasantly suprised, because I thought I was downgrading, but apparently, someone forgot to tell Klipsch that small speakers are suppose to sound small too. A very key thing to remember though, IMAGING! If you set these speakers correctly, they will overwhelm you with quality you come to expect from Klipsch.

I first saw these speakers at Best Buy when I was searching for my home theater equipment, the demo they had there blew me away.
Naturally though the price on Amazon was cheaper than BB so I purchased them here.
The price is towards the high side for smaller Home Theater speakers but the quality of the product is worth it. Audio is very clear and I personally found they sound better with the grilles removed. Attaching the rear speakers to a wall is very easy with these (not sure about how well the front speakers would attach as I instead have my fronts on stands)
I recommend these speakers for room sizes over 15x15 foot preferably larger since they deliver lots of power. Also I recommend the Klipsch Sub-12 subwoofer to complete the package.
Excellant choice for a home theater system October 12, 2008

I matched these with their 12' subwoofer, added two satellite speakers to bring it to a 7.1 system..These are run throuh an Onkyo TX-SR806, AV RECEIVER/AMPLI-TUNER AUDIO-VIDEO . and finished with a 50" Panasonic 1080p Plasma Flat screen.The Klipsch Quintet system just rocks the house...Every DVD, CD, Television Show is special...we look forward to veiwing .
