Strengths: Clarity of sound, frequency ranges.
Weaknesses: Mounting brackets are awkward, but something I am willing to sacrifice due to many other strengths.
Summary: The Klipsch sub IS A MUST. The complete package (5+1) effectively keeps rodents and neighbors away from my place by flawlessly reproducing each bit on any DVDs or CD. I have a entry level Panasonic receiver (100W per ch) but it is more than enough to get an occasional visit from the local PD when listening at 60% volume. Playing the sub at 20-40% capacity is more than enough. The sounds are not boomy but clear and the sub creates more of a feeling than sound. The speakers do the rest making this into a harmony of sounds. The sounds are reproduced VERY accurately with no distortions. Overall, the system is hypnotic.

***BEWARE THOUGH!***

Make sure you buy this system from Klipsch authorized dealer. Call Klipsch before buying otherwise you WILL NOT have any warranty for your $600 + you just downed on one of the most amazing speaker systems. Sometimes it is worth the $200 extra -- trust me.

Strengths: Sound quality
Weaknesses: Mounting brackets difficult to adjust
Summary: These speakers are small but have a powerful punch. With a Klipsch subwoofer and Yamaha receiver, my living room can barely handle the output. Sound quality is crystal clear. I use these speakers strictly for TV and DVD and have no complaints. While I'm not an audiophile, I am a videophile and can confidently says that this speaker system is able to reproduce the sound on movies exactly as I remember it from the theater.

Strengths: Sound quality, size, versatile mounting brackets.
Weaknesses: Mounting brackets use a ball and set screw, so they can be a little finicky.
Summary: I don't have a dedicated HT room, so my wife "let" me use the living room. I mounted a pair of white quintets high on the walls so they wouldn't be as noticeable. (The mounting brackets allow for either wall or stand mounting.) After seeing how they looked even my wife thought we should have lowered them.

My fronts are on stands and the center is in our armoire. (It's easily small enough to sit on most TVs.)

This set is perfectly timbre matched. I have the 10" Klipsch sub w/ mine and the sound crossover is perfect. All the speakers provide an abundance of quality sound.

This set is a bargain for around $500-$600 w/ the sub.

Strengths: Solid speakers with clean design, easily mounted and unobtrusive, full sound.
Weaknesses: Difficult to mount the center speaker, designed only for placement on/under AV
Summary: I bought one set initially for my home as just "rear" speakers for the theatre, planning to donate the other two to the church (along with center). Turns out they are very good and will now be using all 5 (along with a separate sub-woofer) for home theatre. Bought a second set for the church. Sufficient volume from the four small units to fill a 20x40 ft' area with no difficulty. Satellite units have convenient mounting for almost any wall. Like all Klipsch, the amount of sound from the very small boxes is impressive.

Mounting the center speaker is difficult however. There are no mounting holes or brackets provided - it is designed to sit only. System also definitely needs a sub-woofer for full sound, but in operating range is excellent and clean.
