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.

Don't read, just buy... November 14, 2008
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 .

I had a Sony system before I bought the Klipsch and the sound from the Klipsch blew me away. You will have to get it to believe how good it is. Great system
