Well after completing the home Theatre with the Frnts as RF82's, center RC52,
surrounds L/R RB61's, back surrounds RB51's and sub as the RW10d it has been worth the money. Using Yamaha 661 for 7.1, plenty of power to push this Klipsch family. Spotted the RF52's on the Future Shop website as web sale only, for $249.99 ea I could not let them go. Price must have been an error since they sell the RF10's for $299.00 and they are the entry level loudspeaker>??? If you demo/buy them, try to have them 2-4 ft away from the wall and toe-in as you would any speaker. As I was, I beleive you will be blown away by the amount of bass as well as the Quality of bass these spks resonate.
No word of a lie, I had them hooked up as my frnts in the HT and had receiver set to Pure Direct (2 channel audiophile mode) and I was baffled! Could not figure out where the low freqs were coming from. I checked my RW10d a few times and it had turned itself off. Those 52's woofers where barely moving but in fact is was them after all. The cabinets are deep in measurement terms and heavy in weight and all for good reason, absolutely no coloring of sound. the internal x-bracing is doing it's job. The overall sound is well balanced and detailed. The clarity of the horn is something to appreciate. Two words BUY THEM!!!!

Strength:

Highs are crystal clear but not harsh. Bass is very clean.

Weakness:

None yet.

Amazing, crisp sound! Will wake the neighbors with no distortion. Crystal clear highs and smooth, tight punchy bass. I can hear every instrument on it's own. My sound dream come true! Highly recommend these!! Not too big, not too small. My receiver is the DENON AVR 5700 (140 watts per channel).
