The Official Klipsch Speakers Thread

Can the R-41SA speaker be used as a surround?

[dcx4610]

Hello - I've had my current Polk audio 5.1 setup for a good 15 years and have the itch to upgrade.

Here's my current setup:

Fronts - Polk Audio Monitor 60 Series II
Rears - Polk Audio Monitor 60B II
Center - Polk Audio CS2 Series II
Sub - BIC America F12 12-Inch 475-Watt Front Firing Powered Subwoofer

Without going broke, can anyone suggest a solid upgrade to the above with Klipsch speakers? I'm pretty content with the subwoofer but just to match, I'md open to suggestions. I'm also considering going to an Atmos setup so elevation speaker suggestions would also be appreciated.

Thanks!

What's your budget?

Those are solid speakers and if you like the sound they provide I'm not sure how much better a Klipsch setup would be, but I would say go for the RP-8000F for fronts, RP-504C for center, and RP-502S for surrounds. But the weakpoint is really the subwoofer in your current setup. I would try a SVS or HSU subwoofer. The F12 is solid for the money, the best in that price range, but it can't compete with an SVS or HSU.

I'm surprised to hear about the sub. I know mine is not top of the line but I'm pretty happy with it and sometimes I feel like it's too much for my space.

I'm pretty happy with my sound but I definitely didn't break the bank when I bought everything. I was just curious if I could do better.

I think I might instead just get some height/Atmos speakers and have a 7.1 setup finally. The problem now will be finding a good way to hide the wires.
