Finally Klipsch dialed back the harshness! I was using a Hitachi HMA 7500 (75x2) to power them and they were impressive with all types of music. Full tight sound in the 20x15 room. Detailed and balanced. Now using a Marantz SR8400 to bi-amp them at 220 watts per speaker and they sound incredible! Instruments and voices sound lifelike. When I first set them up they were too close to the wall and it muddied up the midrange. Keep the rear ports at least 12" from the back wall. The manual says to keep the speakers at least 6 feet from each other toed-in. Go ahead and audition them at Fry's, shake the salesman's hand and walk out. If you're anything like me you'll be ordering them from your phone in the parking lot. BTW these can be bi-amped with any Home theater receiver. Mine is a 7.1 but when bi-amped its effectively a 5.1.
Update 4/19- Now using a Topping DX7s DAC and Hitachi HMA-7500. Sounded great but then I put a 20lb. Kettle bell on top each one and the realism got even better especially voices. I've read most speakers have noisy cabinets unless they're crazy expensive. Try weights on top of whatever speakers you have I bet you'll like it. And your guests will think you work out.

90x90 Hybrid Tractrix Horn
Redesigned Tractrix horn utilizes a circular horn throat paired to a square horn mouth to further improve high frequency response and extension, while enhancing imaging and dynamics. The compressed molded rubber construction adds high frequency damping to improve resolution and detail. This creates the cleanest, most natural sound possible.
Linear Travel Suspension (LTS) Titanium Tweeter
A Linear Travel Suspension minimizes distortion for enhanced, detailed performance. LTS Tweeters have been a hallmark of previous Reference lines, as well as our flagship Klipsch Palladium series, making it a core component of some of the best speakers in the world.
Spun Copper Cerametallic Woofers
Cerametallic woofers represent the pinnacle of Klipsch driver design, maintaining exceptional rigidity, and lightweight construction, for minimal cone breakup and distortion. When paired with the Tractrix Horn-loaded LTS tweeter, it provides speaker efficiency highest in its class.
All New Tractrix Port
Utilizing Tractrix geometry, the all new Reference Premiere ports allows for the most efficient, fastest air transfer from the cabinet – for the cleanest, most powerful low frequency response on the market.
Mdf Cabinet With Brushed Polymer Veneer Baffle Finish
We’ve paired a premium wood grain polymer veneer with a brushed polymer veneer to add a more modern aesthetic for the Reference Premiere system. The clean, seamless lines of these speakers allow them to be incorporated into any decor.
Strong, Flexible Removable Grille
Attaches magnetically for an elegant transition from powerful showstopper to discrete performance piece. The magnets are embedded within the baffle for superior high frequency diffraction reduction.
Dolby Atmos Ready
Your Klipsch Reference Premiere floorstanding speaker is the perfect fit to add one of our Dolby Atmos elevation channel speakers (RP-140SA) to deliver overhead sound to your home theater.
