Klipsch THX6000 LCR Review

This is the Klipsch THX 6000 LCR speaker from Klipsch. Along with providing rich, dynamic, and detailed audio, this "bookshelf" speaker is great for gaming, home theater and all channel music.

Total agreed with you I also got two center 1 at the bottom and the other on top the tv Reading reviews it says like comb filter like that but when I try wow the effect and dialog was clear, felt right at the center of the screen naturally. You got to test it yourself then you will know it's better or worse. To me it improved a lot.

Thanks for this great video! I’m struggling to either pull the trigger on these or the Magnat THX lineup. Do you know how they compare to Klipsch, besides sensitivity?

Hey, i have room of 13.5/21 and thought of putting RP 6000 Fii behind the screen with 504CII and now having thoughts of this 6000LCR series with denon 4800H... what do you recommend?... Thanks in Advance 😊

Hey man! Frigggin sweet video. Those speakers are soooo nice. A point of suggestion if I can. I would take your center array and push those into the side-surround position in what would be the traditional "5.1" config where they are to the side and slightly behind you. Then, I would place your left in right in the traditional 60-degree triangle with the MLP (if they aren't already there) but with one very crucial adjustment. Toe the left and right speakers in so that they're acoustic centers cross about 1m in front of the MLP. While this will narrow the soundstage somewhat, it will dramatically increase the sweet spot of the new "phantom center" that you just created to about the size of a 3-seat couch, get rid of all the comb-filtering, and once again dramatically increase the fidelity of your system.

If you were to set them up this way, please do not pass judgement until you run Dirac. When you run a phantom center and are listening to muilti-channel playback, the center image will have a slightly dip in the FR at 1.5khz and it will make it sound like you're running a quiet center channel. Running Dirac will fix that.

This is the setup I currently employ but mine is a 7.1 with a phantom center. So, really a "6.1". Another option that is supported by many AVRs is a SR back channel that's comprised of one speaker instead of two. So, if you were to acquire two more THX-6000s, you could run a single center, a single SR back, and now have a different "6.1" system but with a center channel. Anyway, I love the home theater hobby and could talk all day. So many different ways to accomplish the same results. Very fun!

Fantastic video!

Is the Onko enough to power these? I just ordered the same receiver. I wanted to get a preowned Mcintosh MXT120 but wanted all the up to date dsp processing like Dolby Atmos, DTS-X. I have an old 7.1 Denon receiver and Boston Acoustic towers and center channel speaker which are 20yrs old. I keep the towers for dedicated music listening.

great explanation I use Cornwall IV and Forte IV in my theater room the thx-650 sounds close to them I think you should demo them

[MyFatherLoves]

Completely agree on playing games in the home theater. Headphones will never be able to give the same immersive experience as outboard speakers.

Did the dual center setup sound bigger/more robust? Great review

Thanx for reviewing these speakers! I’m building a new house next year and a home theatre from scratch. Planning to get the 6000LCRs in the front but I have never thought about bi-wiring two in the center😊 Worth concidering. Going for the Marantz Cinema 40 and dual SVS Sb16 ultras. Havent desided on a projector but it will be some lasertype. A question, however: Is it necesary with a power amp for these speaker or will the Marantz Cinema 40 be enough? Again thanx for the review👍🏻

What’s the difference between kl650 thx and kl 6000 lcr ?

[ElvinAbdullayev-lp]

I don't agree with you I have thx-5000 series I run them only with Onkyo they sound great I give them 100 watts of power they sound perfect if you add an amplifier to them they will sound very bright and sound like a reference line but I don't want that I run them without an amp and I'm sure the tweeter doesn't sound like the Rp series, but if you use it with an amplifier, it won't sound like it used to, and I don't like very bright sounds, if I did, I would be happy to buy the Rp Series, but I don't, the Rp series is too tiring for the ears
