"RP-500M II is a marked improvement over the original (v1) version in terms of midrange detail."
"[sensitivity] is actually closer to 85dB @ 2.83v/1m anechoic."
"The lifted treble isn't enough to make you take immediate notice; it's not sharp nor does it stand out (to the level that other speakers' lifted HF do). However, once you turn the speaker off-axis about 30° the HF tilts downward a bit and is, in my opinion, much more enjoyable. I'd recommend toeing the speakers out for this reason. You will need to experiment in your room because too much toe-out in a lively room may result in more reverb than you'd like."
"The peak around 10-15kHz does cause synth music to sound quite strained at times."

Great thing is the directivity is superb(like most contemporary design Klipsch speakers/NOT the stuff like the Forte and Heresy ect.) so PEQ/EQ is easy to set to taste and stil have mathcing on and off axis energy.
Great deal, maybe even find an OB in excellent for less.
But I really still want to just try 7.1 for my self and if i like it upgrade my receiver at some point.

IMHO with subwoofer Klipsch would be better. Without SW it would be a toss-up
