Klipsch RP-600M Bookshelf Loudspeaker Review. Upscale Audio's Kevin Deal discovers his roots 

I bought my RP600's from you and I love them! Great speakers to start off my audiophile set up.

Kevin and the RP 600M actually look very similar.

That intro was brilliant!

love the fact that you are always honest! your review are great!

Thank you for the recommendation to run these off the 4 ohm tap. I hadn't tried that and it elevated these speakers to a new level. Definitely more detail, clarity, and separation with the 4 ohm as opposed to the 8 I also tried this with their baby brother the R51M and had similar improvements to sound quality.

Its official, EVERYBODY has reviewed the 600m, (except Bill Clinton).

Hello Kevin, and Happy New Year from here in Boston. I wanted to thank you for the tip, about running the RP-600M out from the 4 ohm tap on my Reisong A10 tube amplifier. I had found them a little too harsh and dynamic from the 8 ohm tap. Taking your suggestion and using the 4 ohm tap from my amplifier seems to have tamed the unwanted characteristics and left only the sweet tones behind. In my case it really made a big difference. I learned something new today, thanks to you. Thank You very much. Brez

Brilliant intro! Ive bought a lot of NOS tubes from Kevin over the years.

I wasn't "shopping", I just wanted to watch a review!

Kevin, you are a freaking blast. This video just made my night. I heard these at RMAF 2019, and they are superbly detailed, and have a fantastic low end, and the soundstage was also pretty sweet. You also had a great display room. Keep these vids coming. :)

Kevin you are a salesman for sure...just got done watching another of your older clips on Focal speakers where you clearly state that you can't stand any speaker under 2K, lol

Love your comedy and reviews!! Rock on brother Man.

Colonel Klipsch has been building (and now his company) the absolutely the best speakers. In the old days they were giants until they designed the Heresy. My college had/has a large listening room with the commercial size Klipsh speakers, and nothing I've ever heard match those. The RP-600M is really not like the early designs, but the philosophy of the big speakers is there. I happen to own Canton speakers because I like the detail rather big sound. I would have no difficulty buying the 600M the next time I buy speakers. I would love to hear these with my not so expensive hybrid tube amp. It's also quite beautiful.

I purchased a set about 3 months ago very happy

God I love Kevin!!! Keep it all going Kev!

That intro had me cracking up!

Hit the subscribe button after that intro, freaking hilarious!

Love the tube amp advice! Thanks

Thanks Kevin great job

This is a very smart guy. When a mfg declares the resistance value, it’s really a range average. It’s amazing how speakers with the same 8ohm or 4ohm rating varies through the frequency range and power range. My Magnepan’s probably dip down to 1.5 ohms. Kevin... that’s a great idea putting those Klipsch on the 4 ohm taps.

If these would have come with a built in amplifier like the R-51PM I would have bought them. I settled for the R-51PM, my first Klipsch speaker purchase which hasn't been delivered yet. I hope I love them as much as you do the RP600M I just don't have enough space for a receiver.

I own a pair of RP-160m’s and their R-12sw sub. System rocks!!

I didn’t know John Malkovich reviews speakers, that’s badass!

Kevin love your reviews dude. Can you do a review on the new Legend Series by Polk Audio that will be available for sale on October 1st.

How about pairing a Decware amp with the Klipsches? WBT premium binding posts. A new crossover. Maybe some Bybee purifiers, like Ref 3 A uses. Things like that.

thank you for knowledgeable thoughtful information without the BS thanks

All the reviewers love those little Klipsches. The common word you hear from everyone is "fun".

Does anyone know where I could get the 600Ms modded/upgraded? Premium WBT binding posts. New crossover. Perhaps some Bybee purifiers like Reference 3A uses. Things like that.

7:05 aaahh it's called PLACEBO effect. You can sell that for as much $ as you want hahah :D another snake oil video. What's inside this box? Air from the best live rooms?

Stranglehold is AMAZING!

You're amazing! Thanks for the laughs :D

Had me at 'ameliorate'

Intro. Subscribed. Lol thanks for first laugh of day

Yo Kev! Loving your channel and videos. Where I live in New Zealand I can buy these or the 6000f for the same price. Which one would you buy? I have a Tsakiridis Aeolos EL34 amp 2x30w. Keep up the great work.

Can't find them in walnut anywhere for less than $770. They have skyrocketed in price! Wondering if they are still the way to go with them now costing $250 more...?

Hi Kevin… Great review … What 24 inch speaker stands do you recommend for this speaker . Thx 😊

Saving my money for these speakers. I’m from Australia, and here these speakers cost $1600.00 so much more expensive, even when taking in the Australian to US dollar conversion, because of the shipping costs. I still want these speakers though. Hopefully I’ll be pairing these speakers with the Audiolab 6000A integrated amplifier, should be a great match!

😎 love the review !! Subscribed 🙌

Oh my God you should be a comedian and I love Klipsch speakers

Man you crack me up, and make me wanna buy things

I have Klipsch RF7II with my anthem integrated 225

What is the best Klipsch sub to pair with these speakers? Thanks!

You guys would do GANGBUSTERS if you started a podcast.

"I'm sick of this dot com bullshit and these rich mofos." :) That made me laugh.

Not that this a good comparison, but I’m considering 2 sets of speakers. the Klipsch and also the B&W 704 S2. What’s your thoughts on the 704 S2 speakers?

Someone should make a bi amp passive crossover delete kit . I tried it bi amping with active crossover on my JBL and it was a dramatic improvement

Klipsch 600M vs. Focal Aria 906? Klipsch 8000F vs. Focal Aria 936? Is there a big difference?

Now that was fun!

I am new to audio and started out with Polk s60 towers in the front. My room is only 20x13 and I'm thinking about swapping the towers out for the RP 600M's from Klipsch. How do you think these will compare to the Polk towers?

This is a sales pitch not a true review.

Great video as always buddy. Guys I’m Curious I’m thinking of getting a set of the speakers to run with a small sub for the extra little sub sound I was wondering what amplifier would you guys recommend that under $1000 for this

I have 1 set 600m 1 set 500m and they are indeed good. The 500m in walnut and it looks great nice break from the plain janes.

Should I buy these or keep my KEF 101-2s?

Hi Kevin, can u tell me about this master setup steps? i have bought the rp600m and trying to make them sound better in my room, besides, what you sugest to break in this speakers? thanks!

Hi, wich one you recommend, the chora 806 or the rp-600 for general use?

C'mon Kevin - you should send every customer who orders these speakers a *blanket* to go with that Dutch doodad (I particularly like the fact that you 'cant get them' !). The blanket serves two purposes - you can either use a nail gun to hang it over any glass or other hard surfaces or you can cut eyes and a mouth in it and place it over your head. Anything to slow down the reflected sound in an untreated room has to be a good thing, right ? Winter will be howling down the streets of most American cities before you know it but your customers will be ready for it.

They are made in Arkansas (well probably by way of China but am sure they have their Hill people to).

This little speaker has been calling me for some time now. I own a set of minty Heresy HWO, RF5 and RB 51. I like driving them with a Scott LK 48 tube intergrated. Curious to hear the RP's on it.

I wanna ' know where to get a turntable/lazy susan like that? I could mod it to clean my vinyl. 😏

How do you think these would match up with my old NAD 3130, its been restored

Looks fun to me

what is that speaker connect to make it sound warmer ? never heard of it

What would these be like in a nearfield situation? Say 2m away?

Speakers that people can really afford.... like Tannoys? Good work.

i heard that these could sound better if there used tube connectors

JA at Stereopile rated 'em 89.6db sens.Still with 8ohm load one could dick around with 6-10 SET's and they still would boogie at mom approved levels ("careful of your ears at that concert honey-what were they called "enginehead"?-well have a nice time").Yep want me sum and a chfi valve cheapie for a desktop.Hope they blend OK nearfield ad don't bonk because of the Tractix

the end is near..... kevin trying to sell a plastic horn tweeter speaker.......

What was that little cable dongle thingy? Can't find anything about it anywhere...

$549?? Where?

Haha never heard this guy! Funny!

Rega brio match well

God buddy I Love the vids . I do freelance reviews for AVS and this is a KICK-ASS Speaker!

I bought a pair after all the hype. I got the piano black....Well...they're good....but not as good as the hype. Im gonna give em about 6 mos, maybe a year, but i don't see them as keepers. Thank god I didnt pay full price.

Are the RP 600M good for movies too ?

Polk audio is good also.

Tombs up just because the Rolling Stone are behind!!1
