They just totally blew everything else in the price range out of the water! Then I thought, lets have some fun and test these babys vs. The clarity and depth of sound field were simply amazing. Polk, Infiniti, etc.) When I finally got to the Klipsch 4.5s I couldn't beleive what I was hearing. I couldn't afford much so I started in the lower priced range of what they carried (i.e. I remember going to the local audiofile store to audition speakers. I would not sit down with a 8 wat 300B amp, a glass of port in my hand and a nice oscar peterson trio to keep me company. I would then add a powerfull sub and blast away with a star wars movie. I would put them in a large room and drive them loud. Overall, i would choose a good and powerfull solid state amp to drive these speakers. Even with 95db/w/m efficiency, they need some watts to start playing and tubes don''t do it. I''ve heard a square tractrix in a JBL (forgot what they were) and they sounded better still.ДЄlthough I did not hear these speakers with a good solid state, I think they should preform better. This is what happens when you offload the range from 1600Hz to 20000Hz onto 1 single tractrix horn that doesn''t even have a circullar cross-section. They were not dull or anything, they were just too heavy. The absolute highs did not give a sense of air. The low mids were not noticable (I guess there was nothing wrong with them - they were just not balanced with the highs or the bass), but the mid-highs were screamy and metallic. The midbass was tight and especially in combination with 300B amp really fast and detailed.

It might be that the bass driver is not an easy load when it gets to real deeps, but the sub-bass simply sead weak and boomy. Sebart (One Push pull Eе…ѓ4 and one SE 300B).ДЄlthough it seems that the efficiency of the speaker should satisfy an underpowered SE amplifier, I think that the speaker is not well matched to low power tube amps. I listened to them combined with a Marantz CD player and two ASV amps from Mr. These speakers are not what Klipsch should be all about.
