Very nice speakers.
I recently started to become obsessed with Klipsch speakers after I got a set of used 2007 Klipsch Reference surround speakers. I wanted to get some newer, better ones too. I decided to go with the RP-500M II because they are the perfect size, and have great audio according to other people. Next to that I think they look beautiful! This is the first time I bought brand new Klipsch speakers, previously I would only get used ones. The sound they make is way more balanced than previous speakers that had louder tweeters that (according to some) could fatigue. Personally I never had that Klipsch tweeter fatigue because I liked it. However with the great
sound of these new speakers it doesn't feel like I'm missing something either. The sound is still very detailed. The build quality is also good. I have nothing to complain about!

No Regrets
After a week of comparing speakers with a variety of songs Led Zep, Little Feat to The Carpenters on Clutchfiled website. Now that their setup sounds even better I'm even going to buy another pair for the rear. I just need to pick the right one's.

Sound Great for the price
i've had my 500ii's for around a year now.
also using the 400ii's rear and 500C centre and Klipsch sub, they were hooked up to an Onkyo TX NR6100 and sounded great. recently upgraded amps to a Yamaha RX A6A and now they sound even better. very happy with these.

Changed my perspective!
Wonderful piece of equipment. Changed my perspective of listening to music! I am using it with a Marantz receiver and amplifier and it sounds amazing.

I Recommend!
This might explain: WOW! These speakers were an upgrade from previous Klipsch mains. My whole HT 5.1 system, are all Klipsch, connected to a Denon 7 channel AVR. I listened/watched several SI-FI movies and was amazed with the dynamics and clarity. I sometimes tune to MP3 internet music from Soft Rock to Symphony, to Folk and Piano, listening to such detail and smoothness, in 2 channel stereo mode.
I have a small HT room in the basement, and found the 500's performed tbe best, with them pointed straight out into the room. With distance to the mains and 55" QLED TV, at 6.5 feet. Having these 500M II's, for the mains, has made the movies and music, so much more enjoyable. I love the Klipsch sound. These speakers are 3 weeks old and perform every day.

They Sound Amazing !
I upgraded from a old pair of Klipsch ICON W-14's which in their day were amazing, however this speaker broadened the soundstage and allows for increased depth in music and movie watching. They are an incredible value to performance option ! I highly recommend these, especially due to the improved wide dispersion of the horn tweeter.

Better than expected
Replaced two of my smaller Klipsch satellite speakers. I was missing the mid tones. No longer. These speakers sound so good. Especially considering the price

Small speakers, big sound.
I am very pleased with these speakers. They look good, are well made, and sound great. They are still breaking in a bit, but they are impressive so far. They sound very good without a subwoofer and have more punch than you would expect from a 5". However, adding a small sub (8" or 10") to carry some of the weight on the low end (90Hz was the sweet spot in my room for the crossover) allows the midrange and treble to be just that much sweeter.

Great speakers RP500M II
These bookshelf speakers sound great and tonality is balanced. In addition, I have a Sony 10" subwoofer. Overall, it exceeded my expectation.

super clean
I have had these about three months and absolutely love them, super clean, crisp room filling sound. paired with wireless Klipsch Sub sort of needed for lower volumes to give fullness don't need a sub for higher volumes at all.

Bought these for me rear surround setup. These things have amazing sound throughout the frequencies. Build quality is top notch. Don't be fooled by size, they put out the volume!

For audio lovers
Bought these speakers on crutchfield. Very well built and very clear sound with a lot of dynamics. Paired with a Denon PMA 600, it sounds really great. These speakers don't lie with a "lay back" sound made to please people. You need a good HiFi system to enjoy them, otherwise they will highlight the weakness of your system.

Great addition
Great addition to the small system used in my office. They are used in concert with a 10 inch Klipsch sub and could quite easily overwhelm the room if I really wanted to cut them loose!!

Absolutely Solid
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My wife prefers listening to her vinyls, over a Bluetooth speaker. This set replaces an old bookshelf set from an unknown brand. I am no expert in speakers, a buddy, and the internet helped me with the setup. You will need speaker wires and more than likely a good amp, depending on what you are using them for. The sound they produce is top notch. We have tried out all types of music and the speakers make just about anything enjoyable. They got great bass when you need it and the lyrics are just so crisp and clear. The speakers themselves are built to last, they also look great with nice clean finishes. If you aren’t familiar with this type of speaker, don’t be intimidated by the setup. It was easy once I realized how everything works. I would absolutely recommend these to anyone who enjoys listening to music, they make the experience much better.

Great sounding speakers!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These speakers have great quality sound and are awesome! The sound is crisp and clear and it doesn’t sound muffled like some speakers. They are pretty big so make sure you either have them on the floor or on a sturdy deep shelf.

Great sound
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Got these to replace the old speakers in my vintage turntable set. The old ones were just ok but dated. When I hooked these up the difference was immediately noticable. The quality of sound coming out of this old turntable blew my mind. So glad I installed them.
