Author's Review
After researching, and listening to high end, low end, and everything in between from Polk, Infinity, Bose, etc., I chose the Klipsch Quintet for my surrounds. I am still amazed this system only cost $400! What a great set of speakers! The highs are crisp without being tinny, the dialogue is clear and natural, and the bass is strong without booming. But, the best feature by far is the seamless balance between the speakers. Cars crash and jets scream overhead without jumping from speaker to speaker. For movie soundtracks the Quints rule!
I have a 10" subwoofer, also from Klipsch, that handles the bottom, and I don't think these would hold up without that deep bass, but I think it is wise to buy your sub separately to fit the size room you have. So, it was nice to find a surround set that didn't come pre-packaged with a cheezy sub.
It's a plus that these speakers look good, too. They have a nice weight and a quality feel that speaks of craftsmanship, rather than mass production.
I give these a 10 on the valuemeter!
