I'm 70 and still use my vintage 2-channel audio system for music and tv/movies. My JBL L-100s will rock the house and I just prefer the sound stage they produce. If buying today I'd probably opt for a powered stereo pair like the Klipsch. Hopefully, someone will offer grill options. A Burnt Orange like my JBL's would be perfect.

Though I am admittedly not a huge fan of powered speakers in concept, I still think they are a marvel. My pair of Edifier r1280db (~$120, powered speakers with 2 RCA inputs and BT) serve surprisingly well on a desktop when aimed at the ear. Imaging is very precise.

Hi John, further to my comments below, I just wanted to say thanks for your efforts with your HiFi reviews. Lazy me finally took the time to read the links below regarding your website, RU-vid production & comments, etc. Well reasoned and loved the dry wit :-). Clearly, you are seeking to be as unbiased as possible and also fair and reasoned in your approach. This style of reporting I appreciate as I make my way through the quagmire that is HiFi and especially high-end HiFi. What I can say in a resounding manner, is that your channel has been very helpful on my HiFi journey and I look forward to seeing more of your reviews. Whilst long hours to produce the content, I am sure that, for the most part, you must be having a lot of fun doing something that you enjoy and is as much a hobby as it is a workstyle for you. Also, happy to buy you lunch or dinner when I get to Berlin.....or if you get down to Melbourne Australia.........hoping you might be able to squeeze this into your 70+hr week.......LOL. Now to have a look at your Patreon page :-) Cheers Tony

I was sold on this premise, Bought the sevens and was wowed. However they failed a little after a week of use. There's a whole stream of people on reddit with similar issues with shipped defective firmware. The easy solution I paid a premium for never eventuated. Ive learned to wipe and reflash the updated software. I'm still having issues, they're no longer a paperweight but seem to be getting hot and HDMI ARC will not work for the duration of a movie. This simplicity was my primary reason for purchase . I'm so disappointed with the sevens and am angry that Klipsch has shipped so many defective units, per the number of reddit reviews. The vendor is ghosting me and Klipsch have offered there dealer will repair them but no longer trust the product after reading the others experience of failures within first year. Just do your research, I wish I bought the separates as when they're not silent they sound amazing. Hoping to get a refund and will gladly get the RP-600 even after receiving the not fit for purpose sevens. Be warned not a one off issue.

Great review John. I am a bit of a Klipsch fanboy (I use Klipsch Palladium P-37F floor-standing speakers, and love them). A fair and well-balanced review and really enjoyed that you went to the extra effort to compare with an "equivalent" Klipsch passive setup using the Reference series. Really enjoyed your review as I generally do with many of your reviews. BTW, looking forward to your Auralic Altair G1.1 review as this is the DAC/Streamer that I am considering. Currently, I use a Lindemann Limetree Network II. Cheers Tony

Great review, with plenty of information and a great attitude toward Audio gear and the hobby. Thank you Darko! I do have a question...It's a One-word answer with no follow-up questions allowed: - Optional: The Klipsch Sevens or Neines? (That is if you've had any time with the Neines) - The Klipsch Sevens/Neines or LS 50 II? On a personal level, As an Oldtimer Audiophile & Music listener/Hobbyist, I am very excited about the new generation of Active Speakers and the All-in-one systems. Technology has solved many of the issues brought forth by having too many functions in a single box, hence the old gravitation towards separates (My own old/current setup). However, many of the new all-in-one systems have superior power distribution capabilities along with simply having efficient electronics and architecture making them sound as good as separates. The new generation of active speakers paired with Class A/B or D/G/H, sound amazing! The engineers matched the best setup and released it. I really see no reason to go back to separates again. Thank you, Darko. Cheers Antoni

I’ve had my Sevens since March. They rock! I went with the Black Walnut since I hated the creme grill cover of the Walnut. Where as on the Fives I loved the Walnut with the pepper grilles. Anyways I run my Sevens daily thru an ASUS M16 laptop connected via Audioquest Carbon USB. Utilizing Tidal. I just recently bumped down to the standard Hifi Family plan instead of the Hifi Plus until Tidal decides to drop MQA. I added the AQ USB cable because I run a Dell D3100 USB Hub and wanted to ensure the 1&0s are going to my speaker un-impeded. Plus I like the look and feel of the cable. The build quality on my set is great on my left speaker and just good on my primary (right) speaker. I can run my finger down the bottom of the cones to the woofer on my left speaker and it’s all a smooth transition. On the other hand my right speaker the cone is inset about a single centimeter and it is not flush with the nice aluminum plaque above the woofer. A tad frustrating but never the less both veneers are pristine with no chips at the corners like my Fives had. Thru my laptop I run Dolby Atmos to utilize the 10-band EQ. I had to change my EQ setting in May either because my ears changed or the speakers broke in. I want to add a subwoofer soon too. Holding out though to see if SVS drops their prices or a dealer like Crutchfield has a sale.

Today's non MQA tracks are also messed around with and aren't lossless. I have compared Tidal and Qobuz tracks and they sound different, Qobuz being more natural.
@FlyOnAlbatross
@FlyOnAlbatross 11 месяцев назад
@@peterlarkin762 doesn’t surprise me. Honest to god these speakers are my first delve into the audio world. I listened to music for about the last 24 years on a Sony boombox from 1992, whether it was CD or Cassette. Streamed music thru an auxiliary cassette for many years. I wanted something simple and decided on active speakers. After some demos I settled on the Klipsch sound and really like the horn loaded tweeter. I will have to look into Qobuz. I was a long time Spotify premium subscriber but once I got these speakers I felt I had been ripped off. In addition, I can have up to five family members on Tidal Hi-Fi Family plan for $19.99 a month which was the same price as Spotify Premium Duo which was just for two people myself included.

I have the fives as well and really love the way that they sound, especially paired with a klipsch 10" reference subwoofer. However, I would love to upgrade to the sevens or even the nines since we have an open floor plan in our living space and the fives struggle just a bit to project in that space. Even still, the fives are great--but I have to eq them for movies so that dialogue stands out more.

I don't understand why companies don't design an input box and then send the signal to the speakers instead of having one of the speakers handle all the connections. They still use the umbilical chord anyway, so why not make it more convenient for users... don't get it. Just a rant, they do look very nice though, and seem a reasonable option.

@SwirlingDragonMist
@SwirlingDragonMist 11 месяцев назад
I think it’s just caught in between using speaker wire from a receiver, and the active powered speaker concept. It’s a cool idea, but adds cost and development which are resources that could otherwise make it more affordable or more performance. Then of course down the line the speakers become dependent on the accesory, which no doubt will be a bummer for some teenager at the flea market who can’t find the outboard input box to make them work. Universal compatibility is a really nice feature of our standardized technology that we often take for granted. I think a tidy 90* cable extension bundle may be a nice compromise, keeping the inputs on the speaker while providing a tidy extension for cable management in another location.

I have the Kanto Tuk's as my computer speakers along with the matching subwoofer.....was debating whether or not to move the system to the TV and use for movies etc.....do you think that set up is enough for a 12 x 15 ft room ? or would it be better to get the fives and would they be enough or the sevens or the nines for my TV speakers and add a 12 inch sub ? ANYONE can respond....great video by the way....thx....cheers from Canada

I have the RP-15PMs and the wireless R-10SWI sub as my living room / tv speakers. I really like the combo, and the subwoofer allows for great bass when you want it. I saw a review (Steve Guttenberg maybe?) where he suggested tipping the speaker angels inward past where you normally would aim them toward specific listening position to create a larger sweet spot. As you say, these powered speakers are mostly better than a soundbar if you also listen to music regularly.
@JoseFerreira-zb7wh
@JoseFerreira-zb7wh 11 месяцев назад
One other reason why separates can pull ahead is that they are non dependent when some element in the chain fails. when active speakers malfunction, you're left with nothing (no amp, no dac, no features, no speakers) with separates it's easier to replace just an element and keep listening to music. this is also true if you want to change something particular to your sound, upgrade, or just having different options.

Totally agree with your soundbar opinion. Tested several ones (B&O Beosound Stage and Sennheiser Ambeo) for my tv-setup. But as a music lover and audiophile I bought two Dynaudio Evoke 10's instead which sounds amazing with music, movies and concerts using BS Node N130 (via HDMI) and Hegel H95 amp. And good WAF too...😉!

I would surmise just from observation, the horns on the 7's have wider dispersion, whereas the RP600's have that deeper narrower inner cone that concentrates the highs in a tighter sweet spot thus the brighter some say harsher sound. imho

Curious about putting electrical all in one cabinet. Weight, volume and wire length must affect sonic balance. I miss the old Paradigm A2s where you could choose your own DAC and each speaker was self contained and worked great in mono too. My KEF LSXs would benefit from a better DAC to. So far the integrated DASs I’ve tried aren’t very transparent.

Thank you for this tremendous review. I was myself contemplating the purchase of either The Sevens or the passive RP600Mii ones. Question -- Would you think a different amplifier, like the Rotel A11 (or A14) change your view of the RP600Mii's? In other words, how much would an amplifier help bring the 600's closer to what you likes about the Seven's? Will greatly appreciate your thoughts. Thank you for all your hard work doing these reviews, hopping between 2 countries

Around 12:00 I can hear why I would go with the 600 passives because although I listen to plenty of electronic music not unlike Four Tet, my benchmark is still rock/metal music, voice, electric guitar, sax, snares, cymbals, etc. That said, my current HECO Aurora 300s serve the same role as The Sevens with their low frequency range. The 600M ii combined with a sealed subwoofer seems like the upgrade for me right now. Ah, but maybe I am WRONG about this too! Those metal and rock recordings are often untamed/messy! BTW, thanks for the WiiM Pro recommendation, which has a graphic EQ -unlike Blusound product. I wish Bandcamp and Soundcloud were added to products like this as they are often sources for music discovery.

@J Darko: How do you rate the WiiM Pro fed into an integrated amplifier such as your Audiolab 6000A, a Rotel, Hegel, Arcam, etc., using the amp's internal DAC? Is this sort of setup about as good as it gets for streaming music, or can one do better for sound quality while also having software that includes a graphic EQ like the WiiM?

In The Sevens' and Nines Klipsch seem to be concentrating on stereo home theatre usage. Klipsch call them powered speakers which normally would mean the secondary speaker is passive and the electronics do not include an active cross over. These do not scale up to a six or eight channel system. They have Bluetooth but lack both wi-fi and Ethernet connections. Meanwhile Klipsch are pulling back on their WiSA home theatre system. I had some difficulty getting an Axiim Link the WiSA transmitter that Klipsch supplied for their wireless speakers.

The odd thing to me, is how the primary speaker deals with the loss of interior volume of the speaker cabinet; because of the 4 amplifiers, and their power supplies, along with the DSP hardware. The profiles of the tweeter horns/waveguide of the two Klipsch speakers - are different. Perhaps this is the difference in the treble balance? Or, the DSP is doing the crossover / driver level matching differently?

I am an old fart with a range of Klipsch speakers and have been thinking about modernisation of my sound requirements. Thanks to you it sounds so complex, I feel I will stick to pure analogue , grin and bear it.

I really enjoy your take on “Future-Fi” and I purchased some KEF LS50 Wireless speakers based on your review, of course I bought them a few months before the Wireless II came out. I’ve also enjoyed the Klipsch The Fives with a sub in my office. I’ve moved and am looking to buy the best speakers I’ve ever owned, Montana EPS, back from the friend I sold them to next spring. In preparation for this buyback I’m selling the KEFs and The Fives and I’m buying a Lyngdorf 1120 and some Klipsch RP 600M IIs and using them with the Klipsch sub I already have. The RP 600M IIs will be a temporary speaker, but I’m looking forward to having a “Future-Fi” system with Room Perfect and not have the unsightly mess of cables plugging into one speaker. Thanks for all you do for the Hi-Fi community and all the great reviews over the years! Cheers!

Not sure if I’d be keen with “app” control. 10 years from now, that so-called app may not even be supported. Firmware updates are a chore. Gotta keep it simple…

How do you like The Sevens compared to the KEF LSX II you reviewed recently?

My living room is only 20 m² (4m x 5m), and which one is the best choice between Klipsch the Sevens and the Nines?
@SedO_O
@SedO_O Месяц назад
I was very interested in this question, the same room with a height of 3.5. I did not find where to listen to the speakers and bought nines, the maximum volume at which it is comfortable to listen to 60%. Probably, for such a room, the question is more about aesthetics, both speakers will be good, but sevens are more aesthetic, it seems to me.

Hey Darko !!! JUST FOR FUN, What about (Passive vs Active vs Portable), how about a review of two JBL Partybox 110 in Stereo Mode to see what that brings to the mix, with the added benefit of portability, and the hardcore audiophiles would of course listen with party lights turned off. Thanks for all the Great reviews.

Do the Sevens save customised EQ settings after you power them off? Because the Fives still, inexplicably, have this problem.
@FlyOnAlbatross
@FlyOnAlbatross 11 месяцев назад
Yes they in fact do save your Custom EQ preset unlike the Fives. I can attest to this as I owned both and I love my Sevens. The Fives are still badass little speakers and for the price you can’t go wrong.

I just purchased the Samsung QN800C TV and looking for a great home theater speaker system that won’t kill me on install. I am advised by one vender to pair the TV with Sonos Arc and the Sonos ERAS 300s. Another Vender recommend the Samsung - Q-series 11.1.4 ch. Wireless Dolby Atmos Soundbar + Rear Speakers w/ Q-Symphony. Both of these have Dolby Atmos. Then he took me in the back and let me listen to a pair of these Klipsch. I was shocked at the sound from them. I’m curious for movies and music do you think it’s better to go with a full system like these first two options or the sevens. I don’t want to have to retire the house if possible. The tv is going over a fireplace. The sevens sounded so good I’m still thinking about them. Do you think I would be missing out by purchasing the sevens and only having sound from 2 directions?
