Klipsch Black Reference Theater Pack 5.1 Surround Sound System

Product Information

The system consists of four identical satellites which feature those iconic, brassy IMG drivers in a 3. When we reviewed the Quintet, it was available with a 12- or 10-inch subwoofer, sold separately from the satellites. That means it's crucial your AV receiver's bass management/subwoofer adjustments are correctly set to at least 100 Hz for all the speakers. While competitors are falling over themselves to produce Atmos-compatible surround sets, Klipsch is keeping it simple with a 5. Klipsch were particularly well suited to this task and have been regarded as the reference for decades.

systems can significantly improve your TV's audio, but if you really want to take advantage of rear-channel surround sound effects, your best bet is still a separate AV receiver and 5. Emitted diagonally upwards into the room, the impression of a sound source from above is conveyed via ceiling reflections. The Klipsch Reference Theater Pack offers impressive sound for such a tiny footprint, but lacks cinematic power compared to bigger-box speakers. If your motivation is to take your movies to the next level, I’d recommend this speaker set 100% without reservation.Simply connect the compact, pre-paired transmitter to the subwoofer or LFE out on your receiver and place the subwoofer where it sounds and fits best in your room.

Klipsch Reference Theatre Pack/R-8SW speaker system review

Three-dimensional sound effects in the living room are made possible with the new Klipsch Reference Theater Pack 5.It’s a very good system for the money and can be combined with the likes of Debut B4 speakers, Debut C5 speakers, ELACDebut B5 pair, among others to get the best out of your reference theater pack. Still, if you have a large room or crave chest thumping bass, you need to step up to a larger system. The satellites measure just 19cm high and 11cm wide, while the larger centre is still just 11cm high and 27cm wide. If you choose to hang your speakers, each speaker has both a keyhole mount and a threaded insert to give you flexibility in how you install them. Reading the negative reviews, the problem was mostly the Subwoofer, but everyone else said it was decent.
