Klipsch RP-600M-II Reference Premiere 100 Watt Bookshelf Speakers

Good value and a good choice for home theater. Extremely detailed in the mid and highs thanks to the horn, but they suffer just a little in the lower midrange - which would likely be cured by the two-woofer models. They mate extremely well with the matching Reference-series subwoofers.

Replaced a set of RB 61II with these 600m II. Good trade. They share space with a set of restored AR 2ax. The 600 have better bass. The AR require equalization. The 600 do not. My audio is supplemented with a small subwoofer to help sometimes. The 600m are light, compact and have neutral fidelity.

I bougt this speaker 6 months ago and I am delighted with the sound.

Amazing speakers enjoy it very much recommend it like the walnut very well done

Great speakers with balanced mids and highs. I am pleasantly surprised by the tight bass these stand mounts are capable of. I listen mainly to classic rock and jazz. Great job Klipsch.

Ok... so I know a lot about sound and how much it has changed over the years. But for whatever reason, I never prioritized this over other things in life... well the time finally came. I picked up a set of RP-600M II (more excited given the reviews – “more refined sound, but still a Klipsch” was EXACTLY what I wanted... Sorry ol' Klipsch-lovers. I always thought they were OVER-eq'd for their distinct style. I do NOT want Klipsch to lose their uniqueness, AND I love these things, perfectly!) and EVEN on my ancient Sony Mini system (I mean; the oldest 1990's non-special amp you can get... well... at least it is a Sony.) these sound AMAZING!!! Crossed over sub at 80hz and balanced the levels; then listened to Spokey Dokey on Spotify and you can hear his breath between the harmonica playing!!! Yeah... I really was NOT listening to sound before. Worth it! I would say, IF you are in a smaller setting (15x20 perhaps) the RP-500M II would work just fine. Don't get me wrong, I am enjoying the power and presence of these, but if you're tight on coin, just get the 500's and step into a new era of sound. Enjoy!

The sound that the TP-600M II speakers put out is very impressive. I'm using them with the Klipsch RP-404C II Center Channel speaker and the RP-1000SW subwoofer, powered by a Marantz Cinema 40 AV receiver that puts out 125W per channel along with ceiling speakers for surround side and rear. My room is about 20' x 35' and this setup completely fills the room, and I feel like it could actually provide more, clean sound at higher decibels than my ears can handle. FYI, bought these speakers to replace KEF iQ70 floor speakers, iQ90 center speakers and PSW 2500 subwoofer. I was a bit concerned before hearing the Klipsch speakers that they wouldn't be able to stand up against my old KEF setup but they've far exceeded my expectations and I actually prefer the sound I'm getting now. Kudos to Klispch for producing affordable speakers that can stand up against far more expensive offerings!

I had very specific perimeters for the speakers I needed. Foremost was they were going to be driven by my SET amp putting out only 2-4 watts. They also needed to be compact enough to fit next to a bedroom dresser on 32” stands. They also had to be reasonably priced, though I looked at speakers up to twice as much, particularly as this is for a second system and I needed to keep the overall cost down. I settled on the 600M IIs over everything else including the previous model 600Ms. I decided on a Schitt Saga II as a preamp with a WiiM Pro Plus as the source. The Saga is interesting because it offers 3 gain levels, Passive, Level 1 and Level 2. I began listening after setup on the Passive mode and have tried the other levels but I’m able to listen at sufficient volume in Passive Mode. The sound may be a bit bright in the higher frequencies but it’s more dependent on the source as at equal levels other songs sound just fine. The WiiM has an EQ which is helpful. Given my requirements this is the ideal speaker for me. To be able to listen essentially direct from the WiiM through a 2-4 watt tube amp to the speakers is a very satisfying and frankly incredible experience.

As I have read and heard from other notable reviewers such as Erin (Erin's Audio Corner), Andrew Robinson and some others on YouTube, even when they review most other noteworthy bookshelf speakers either highly priced or moderately priced, they can't seem to leave out the Reference Premiere RP-600 M II as a comparison. Whether or not the other speaker slightly edges out the RP-600 M II, it is always somewhere in the picture. Speakers like the ELAC Debut 3.0 DB63, Debut Reference DBR62, the MartinLogan Motion Foundation B2, MartinLogan Motion XT B100 or even the B&W or Wharfedales which some have high-end hefty prices, the Klipsch is usually mentioned in comparison to performance at half the price or less. This speaks volumes when a speaker is so close in sound comparison to other models being reviewed either high-end or moderate priced. Even Crutchfield's new Sound profile explanation shows the Klipsch up there with better choices. You don't have to take my word for it but at least read and check out reviews and see for yourself, that these speakers are more than worth the accolades they've been getting. I doubt very much that those that have heard and tested them would mention them with such high praise if they weren't.

Great sound good quality will be purchasing two more when they go on sale
