Just ordered mine last night; very excited for them to come in. My friend was the one who had these at this place and I was blown away. I asked him to send me the model ASAP lol. Thanks for the review and damn dude, your music is fantastic. My personal favorite was that 2nd track.
And? Did you recieve it? How is the sound pressure level? because that's what I'm scared the most. That these won't be as loud as my current setup. I ordered them today, waiting few days for the package to come. I have it with the Klipsch subwoofer of course. I have to, I hate to not having any bass.
I just purchased these today along with the R-100sw. It will be used strictly for playing vinyl in my 11' x 14' office. Currently im running my sl1200mkii into a fosi box x2 and then into a pair of alesiselevate5 powered speakers. I really wanted to get into some klipsch but the fives and sevens were way out of my price range, but the r51pm i got on a flash sale for $279 and the sub at $180!
Does the line in rca work as true analog? Like connecting an external dac? I’ve heard some of these type speakers change the signal coming in to its own dac. I’ve been trying to get an answer. The dude at Klipsch wasn’t even sure. I’m waiting for his answer. Was wondering if you know by chance?
Firstly, thank you for watching the video! I just added the link for the speaker wires i use in the description box below the video. I also added a link for banana plugs which help to provide a better connection. For awareness, I do know there are even better speaker wires out there but in terms of price and quality this one stuck with me compared to a few others.
It the sub out a 1/4 connection? I’m waiting on the speakers and can’t find the actual size anywhere. Just trying to make sure I have the right size before the sun comes.
Thanks for the question. In the case of vinyl players, either speaker would be a fantastic option. I will say though for a 20x20 room, although the 51s can do the job, I'd probably go for the fives simply because of the extra power. 60watts per speaker is great for the 51s but having the extra power on the fives (80 watts per speaker) sounds a little better to me. It's a lot easier to lower the volume if it gets too loud on the fives versus raising the volume on the 51s and risk some form of distortion even though I haven't really raised it to the max volume myself. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!
