I know this review is old, but I loved the content. I just recently purchased a pair of RP-150Ms to be my primary speakers. Planning to move into a Travel Trailer or Motor Home, so I am downsizing. I am hoping these speakers will work in the RV environment.
Hey bro, do the 150M's rock the same tweeter as the 280F's? Also, have you heard the svs ultra book shelfs? I'm all about tower speakers as your fronts but I'm hearing these ultra book shelfs are ridiculous. You think they would make for good fronts or stick to some nice towers? If klipsch didn't exist, for 1000 bucks (give or take a couple hundred) which towers would you go with? Thanx as always!!
Hi! I got the 150Ms for surrounds. Then I got the 280Fs for fronts. Check out Definitive Technology 9060 or 9080. I would go with Martin Logan's, but they are $2k each, lol!
Hey great videos at last some one that talk more like "life experience" vs just doing a review. Any way, question. I'm trying to make my Game Room a full atmos Game Room (system 5.1.4 Movies, Gaming & Music) so I will say is a mid size room. I was thinking to use R-15m x4, with a R-15c, RIC-65 x4 in ceiling and I have now a R-10SW sub. But then I was thinking maybe front Towers will sound better for movies, so maybe R-24F or R-26F. But maybe for the room will be too much. Any way so I change my mind and maybe stay in the bookshelf family but with RP-150M x4 and RP-250C. Based on your set up Front Book shelf or Towers or the RP-150M will do for, Movies, Gaming & Music good enough? I'm concern about wasting extra money if I will have to keep it low... or if will be overwhelming... Thanks
Hey Techno Dad, I’m in the process of piece mealing my Klipsch 5.1.2 as you stated you did in this video. I currently have the RP280FA ( I know you don’t approve of upfiring vs ceiling mount, but it works with my room), and the RP450C. I’m looking to get some surrounds next and was curious if the 150Ms would match well with the 280s or I would need to upgrade to the 160Ms. Room size is medium. Thanks for your time!
I have another question.. I have the rp-600m... If I were to use them as rear channels in my 7.2.4, you think it would be OK to have them both sideways with the horns on the inside and the driver on the outside would that mess up thier imaging capabilities?
I bought some and If you want them sitting directly on your desk, don't. These suckers are huge. They sound incredible, but I recommend you go online and look for the measurements and do a tape mock on your desk
Isn't the lower model R15 enough for surround? After all, the surround speakers only work for special effects, 90% of the movie action is played by frontal speakers
Hi George! Yes, those R15s will work just fine for surrounds. I personally wanted the surround speakers to have the same horn & tweeter as all my other speakers.
I've had also the klipsch rp280 and the 150m. I find them good but I don't liked the small sweet spot and it sounds a little bit 'metallic'. How do you see that?
I use the RP280f now. I sold these 150Ms. As I watch a lot of movies and TV, I don't notice it being metallic. I know the Reference line was always bright and harsh. On this Reference Premier line, they added a rubber surround to take down the harshness.
Techno Dad Im thinking on getting these or the floorstanding model you just mentioned. Which one would u get if Im going to be using them for music 80% of the time? Im not a bass heavy kind of guy I listen to classical and instrumental music the most. Thanks in advance!
What is the diff between the Reference and Reference Premier in your mind. I just bought some R-14M for surround speakers and wonder if I made a mistake??? My place is small so dont need large bookshelves as rears because I have those as fronts.
Thanks for the video. Actually, what you are describing is exactly what I'm planning to do. Currently have a 2.1 soundbar (+ sub) and I think it's the time to invest in some proper speakers. Planning on getting a Denon AVR (no clue which model yet though, probably X3300) and getting two RP160. This will already be a huge upgrade and it will be easy to move forward from there. As this is basically what you are (more or less...) doing, I really think I'm on the right track. Even though I plan to use the RP160 as the main front speakers as you said...I can always move them to the back and add some bigger ones to the front :D
Hi! You'll notice a huge difference! I would suggest after getting the RP160s getting the center channel (RP240C) this way, all TV and movie watching will have vocals that stand out, in a good way, since you have the separate center channel. Next, you should go with either the 10" or the 12". When you're ready to buy, please use my affiliate links below, I get a little commission which let's the channel grow, thanks for watching!!

I'll buy that, it makes sense. I DJ lots of events and I know other DJs couple subs together to get a 6 db boost, but they don't do that with different sized subs.
I was looking to upgrade my front satellite speakers (mirage nanosats). I was looking at these for My fronts, the kefq100's or the elac ub5's.... looking at bookshelf power but hoping to get the smallest boxes if possible. Any ideas?
+Adam Rosenthal These are nice, if you wanted something just a little bit bigger and have better bass response, I'd look into the Klipsch RP-160M which is actually on sale right now for $439 a pair. www.crutchfield.com/S-HPkAyugwG2U/shopsearch/rp160m.html?XVINQ=GW2&XVVer=AT6&awcp=1t1&awcr=105208091123&awdv=m&awkw=%2Bklipsch%20%2Brp%20%2B160m&awmt=b&awnw=g&awug=9031764
+Anders Saasen Pedersen Hi! These are my surround speakers so there was no need to step up to the 160Ms. I did just get the RP-250Ss, so I'm selling the 150Ms.
Hi TD, thx for all your great videos, am a huge fan... Finally got a question you might be the guy too answer... Thinking of upgrade my surround speakers from Klipsch r-14m too rp 160, not the 150 - not available in Denmark!? "My Jump" loud enough too get feedback... hope so 😁
Hi! Thanks for watching!! Honestly, I'd say you probably won't notice too much of a difference for a surround speaker. Mainly because you'll be rolling the speaker off around 80Hz. You would be doing the same with the RP160Ms as well. Does that make sense? You can email me if you need a more in depth answer: technodad55 at gmail.
Techno Dad Hi again TD 🔊 Thx a whole lot, a bit surprised though that U took your time to give me such a fast & detailed response or... nope... must be why am following you closely cause of your enthusiasm... Amazing 📯 Had my crossover on 90Hz and LFE + main, should I try too go without main... The small BS Klipsch are really working hard... 🛠️ Thinking too hard...!?? That's why I was thinking too upgrade the surround speakers as first described... Thx TD Notice : Subscribe too TD "After the jump" Loove it 😁 Kind Regards from ᗗllan ℳayer ♭♫♪
Well Allen, it's up to you really. If you think they are working too hard, then you can upgrade if you want to. Maybe go with the 150Ms, or maybe the 250S. That's what I have now and they are pretty awesome!
Try Amazon.de ... guessing they will deliver to DK. Can only recommand the RP-150M. I use them in the man cave as my rears. Fronts are 280F, center is RP-450C. Still doubting between the R-112SW or R-115SW for some extra bass for movies. For stereo, the RP-280f's deliver sufficient bass.
Awesome video, I can't wait to start upgrading my surround system, last summer, I bought the Sonos sound bar with woofer and rear surround speakers, but not DTS -X or Dolby atmos, unfortunately, I found out about, when I started watching your videos, I'm just waiting to found out the price of the new Sony oled to start upgrading the sound system, i know klipsch is expensive, but there are top notch, you should make a video of your atmos speakers set up, and by the way, you're lucky that your wife seat down with you to watch movies, mine is always complaining about how much money I spend on this addictive technology LOL.
Thanks man! I've been into home theater since 1994 so she knew from the start that I spend money on this stuff. She hated the universal remotes, including the newest one I got which is actually a lot better than the last one. You would have to start with a mid range or better AV Receiver ($500-$800). Check out the X line from Denon (usa.denon.com/us/product/hometheater/receivers) Remember, the lower cost of the receiver, the less outputs you have. You may need an external amp to get Atmos up and running. Currently, there's a sale on Klipsch on Crutchfield (www.crutchfield.com/) You could probably get away with the Reference line and $650 for the 5 speakers, and then you'd need a sub which is $350 for a 10". Also, you would need cables, stands, banana plugs. I love watching movies so the added expense is justified for me. I'm also a musician/producer/DJ so I'll pay to have good sounding equipment.
No, the DENON AVR-X6300H can power 11 speakers, so that will power 7.1.4 Dolby Atmos and DTS:X configuration. It's all good man, ask as many questions as you like!
good video. You mentioned you we looking to upgrade to to tower speakers. Klipsch is currently having a sale on their website where they will give you one of their higher end subs for free when you purchase a set of towers.
+Luis Chavez Thanks, and thanks for watching! I got that email earlier today, and it's got my head spinning! I wanted to get the RP260Fs, but they only give a 10" sub. So I'm thinking of stepping up to the RP280Fs and getting the 12" sub for free. After doing some research, I may sell the 12" sub and get an SVS PB-2000. In a mess right now, hahahaha!
Techno Dad very good choices. what a coincidence I actually have a set of RP-280s and a PB-2000 :) If you do mostly movie watching on this system. I would save some money and get the RP-260 and dual matching subwoofers. you'll get mug more even base and better coverage. you could sell the 10inch sub to help pay for the ones you actually want.
+Luis Chavez Oooooh, how do you like the RP-280 and PB-2000 combo?? I actually don't have space for a two sub setup. I don't really buy and rebuy speakers too much. The last time I bought speakers was in 2005. I figure if I get the 280s and the SVS, I'll be future proofing since we will be moving in the next couple of years.
It sounds amazing to me, but I live in an apartment so my listening space is probably much smaller than yours. I completely understand about not wanting to deal with selling and re buying speakers/subs. I am actually thinking of selling my PB-2000 and getting dual SB-2000 for the smaller form factor and the benefits like i stated above. I do like to listen to a lot of music through my system though so I sometimes notice that bass sounds only good in a small area with one sub.
I'd like to have RP 51M''s front stereo and surrounds or just RP-41M's as surrounds , as well as RP- 41M's as front height speakers with another R-100SW subwoofer. and a R-34C centre speaker..
+KhmerCafe Hi! That's if you want an elevated sound stage. It really depends on your room though. It's good to have the surround tweeters at the same level as your ears. I got rid of these and replaced them with the RP-250S. The bipoles really make for a better surround experience. ua-cam.com/video/y9xFn5XSHc0/v-deo.html
Do you use the auro 3D? they say that fronts speakers must be the same but mine don't, these impact so? I already bought the RP150M to height speaker, RP160M is the main front. what do you think?
*a little note on your center (RP-25-C) video, the lighting on you was way worse than this one and your music inserts was very loud compared to your talking. I was constantly adjusting the volume to go through it. That being said, great vids, i enjoy them, and i'm also a klipsch owner / fun. (RF-3II, RC1)
Hi! Thanks for the comment. Yeah, that one got away from me. I've learned from it, and I'm very conscious in making a constant volume all the way through the video.
+Roland Allen Jr Yup! My wife got a job so I can spend money on home theater equipment. Last time I bought anything like this was in 2005. And since I just got these two, I can now setup Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. So yes, I'm excited!
Great video man , you inspired me to step up man up lol . I have an old Onkyo setup about 15 yrs old .
I've been doing some research and a lot of people say Klipsch is good for home theatre but not so good for music. What do you think?
I think your surround speakers sound better than the towers!
Very true! But those have changed a few times since this video.
Im looking at the 160m as a starter for my klipsch. Hopefully I will use them for surround later. What are your thoughts on the 150s as a whole?
Great video love how the speaker wire disappeared
Awesome setup! What stands are you using for the 150ms?
I know this review is old, but I loved the content. I just recently purchased a pair of RP-150Ms to be my primary speakers. Planning to move into a Travel Trailer or Motor Home, so I am downsizing. I am hoping these speakers will work in the RV environment.
What's the size of the surface if the standa where u put the Klipsch s on?
Hey bro, do the 150M's rock the same tweeter as the 280F's? Also, have you heard the svs ultra book shelfs? I'm all about tower speakers as your fronts but I'm hearing these ultra book shelfs are ridiculous. You think they would make for good fronts or stick to some nice towers?

Great video again those speakers are magnificent ! In the future I think turn around Klipsch it sounds so goods 👍😉
Hey Techno Dad, I’m in the process of piece mealing my Klipsch 5.1.2 as you stated you did in this video. I currently have the RP280FA ( I know you don’t approve of upfiring vs ceiling mount, but it works with my room), and the RP450C.

Hi! The 150Ms will do just fine! I don't think you really NEED 6.5" woofers for surrounds. It is up to you though. If you want them there, go for it!
I have another question.. I have the rp-600m... If I were to use them as rear channels in my 7.2.4, you think it would be OK to have them both sideways with the horns on the inside and the driver on the outside would that mess up thier imaging capabilities?
Hi Tom, like lay them on their side?
@@TechnoDad yes... Would that hurt their imaging or sound distribution?
Do you think the RP-160Ms are too big for a desk setup?
I bought some and If you want them sitting directly on your desk, don't. These suckers are huge. They sound incredible, but I recommend you go online and look for the measurements and do a tape mock on your desk
Isn't the lower model R15 enough for surround? After all, the surround speakers only work for special effects, 90% of the movie action is played by frontal speakers
Hi George! Yes, those R15s will work just fine for surrounds. I personally wanted the surround speakers to have the same horn & tweeter as all my other speakers.
What is the name of the company, where you purchased your foam panels on your walls?
+Larry McKee Sr. Hi! Auralex is the brand name.
I've had also the klipsch rp280 and the 150m. I find them good but I don't liked the small sweet spot and it sounds a little bit 'metallic'.
How do you see that?
I use the RP280f now. I sold these 150Ms. As I watch a lot of movies and TV, I don't notice it being metallic. I know the Reference line was always bright and harsh. On this Reference Premier line, they added a rubber surround to take down the harshness.
Techno Dad Im thinking on getting these or the floorstanding model you just mentioned. Which one would u get if Im going to be using them for music 80% of the time? Im not a bass heavy kind of guy I listen to classical and instrumental music the most. Thanks in advance!
I'm on a tight budget would these be two good left and right speakers?
Yes, but you should try the newer RP600M. Contact my Klipsch dealer Cory for the best pricing - bit.ly/TDPHTFB
Yes, that’s what I’ve been using for the last two years
What is the diff between the Reference and Reference Premier in your mind. I just bought some R-14M for surround speakers and wonder if I made a mistake??? My place is small so dont need large bookshelves as rears because I have those as fronts.
The R-14M is only $150 now compared with yours which are $370
They use different materials and horn in the RP series. Also the RP series has a rubber surround which makes the highs less harsh.
Thanks! In your opinion, is it worth stepping up to the RP’s? Im not really concerned about the extra money, but dont want to pay for nothing.
For surround speaker, just go with the R-14M, you probably won't notice too much of a difference.
Thanks for the video.
Actually, what you are describing is exactly what I'm planning to do. Currently have a 2.1 soundbar (+ sub) and I think it's the time to invest in some proper speakers. Planning on getting a Denon AVR (no clue which model yet though, probably X3300) and getting two RP160. This will already be a huge upgrade and it will be easy to move forward from there.

I think front right left shuld be 3 feet from ground,what is your opinion,also mention how much is cost for klipsh front pair
I've heard its not good to use 2 different size subs in a dual setup. Not sure how accurate that is, something about unbalanced low end frequency.
I'll buy that, it makes sense. I DJ lots of events and I know other DJs couple subs together to get a 6 db boost, but they don't do that with different sized subs.
I want to use this as a rear speaker, how do you think it will sound??
I was totally following you until you said you listed to Dave Matthews. Oh the humanity!
I was looking to upgrade my front satellite speakers (mirage nanosats).

I have that sanus stands I didn’t take off the speaker plate you can still wire your speakers
Im looking at these as fronts for my bedroom 5.1
what type of speaker wire required to connect klipsch speakers?
asish panda SIXTEEN BOY
Hi boss! Why the 150s and not the 160s instead ?
+Anders Saasen Pedersen Hi! These are my surround speakers so there was no need to step up to the 160Ms. I did just get the RP-250Ss, so I'm selling the 150Ms.
That's what am looking for!
Can you suggest a good wireless (speaker wires) 5.1 home theater system around $2k budget
+giri vasan Hi! I know Klipsch has some wireless speakers, but I'm not sure of the price.
giri vasan No wires, it's a sin!
Just go sonos, get 1 soundbar, 1 sub and 2 play 1s. Under 2 k but won't sound near as good as wired klipsch
Hi TD, thx for all your great videos, am a huge fan...
Finally got a question you might be the guy too answer...
Thinking of upgrade my surround speakers from Klipsch r-14m too rp 160, not the 150 - not available in Denmark!?
"My Jump" loud enough too get feedback... hope so 😁

Well Allen, it's up to you really. If you think they are working too hard, then you can upgrade if you want to. Maybe go with the 150Ms, or maybe the 250S. That's what I have now and they are pretty awesome!
The U.S models are not available here in DK.
Might find something similar but has to Klipsch...
Thx for now 📯
Try Amazon.de ... guessing they will deliver to DK. Can only recommand the RP-150M. I use them in the man cave as my rears. Fronts are 280F, center is RP-450C. Still doubting between the R-112SW or R-115SW for some extra bass for movies. For stereo, the RP-280f's deliver sufficient bass.

Techno Dad If i buy the same receiver you have, Do i still need an amp to get atmos, sorry for so many questions, I'm not a tech guy ;(
No, the DENON AVR-X6300H can power 11 speakers, so that will power 7.1.4 Dolby Atmos and DTS:X configuration. It's all good man, ask as many questions as you like!
You can even do a 7.1.2 or a 5.1.4 with a DENON AVR-X4300H, which you can get for $1499 or on eBay for around $1000 - $1200.
good video. You mentioned you we looking to upgrade to to tower speakers. Klipsch is currently having a sale on their website where they will give you one of their higher end subs for free when you purchase a set of towers.
+Luis Chavez Thanks, and thanks for watching! I got that email earlier today, and it's got my head spinning! I wanted to get the RP260Fs, but they only give a 10" sub. So I'm thinking of stepping up to the RP280Fs and getting the 12" sub for free. After doing some research, I may sell the 12" sub and get an SVS PB-2000. In a mess right now, hahahaha!
Techno Dad very good choices. what a coincidence I actually have a set of RP-280s and a PB-2000 :) If you do mostly movie watching on this system. I would save some money and get the RP-260 and dual matching subwoofers. you'll get mug more even base and better coverage. you could sell the 10inch sub to help pay for the ones you actually want.
+Luis Chavez Oooooh, how do you like the RP-280 and PB-2000 combo?? I actually don't have space for a two sub setup. I don't really buy and rebuy speakers too much. The last time I bought speakers was in 2005. I figure if I get the 280s and the SVS, I'll be future proofing since we will be moving in the next couple of years.
It sounds amazing to me, but I live in an apartment so my listening space is probably much smaller than yours. I completely understand about not wanting to deal with selling and re buying speakers/subs. I am actually thinking of selling my PB-2000 and getting dual SB-2000 for the smaller form factor and the benefits like i stated above. I do like to listen to a lot of music through my system though so I sometimes notice that bass sounds only good in a small area with one sub.
I sampled these speakers today and thought they sounded terrible. Went with Kef Q150's night and day better sound.
Cool!
I'd like to have RP 51M''s front stereo and surrounds or just RP-41M's as surrounds , as well as RP- 41M's as front height speakers with another R-100SW subwoofer. and a R-34C centre speaker..
Sounds like a solid plan!
@@TechnoDad not sure though if another R-100SW is overkill ina 13ft x 11ft room. What you think? What gauge speaker wire you get?
Techno Dad, Thanks for a great video but I am confused. I thought the surround speakers should be placed couple feet above ear level.
+KhmerCafe Hi! That's if you want an elevated sound stage. It really depends on your room though. It's good to have the surround tweeters at the same level as your ears. I got rid of these and replaced them with the RP-250S. The bipoles really make for a better surround experience. ua-cam.com/video/y9xFn5XSHc0/v-deo.html
can you denon 6400h work auro 3D in 5.2.2 setup?
Hi! I don't think so, you'll need like 13 speakers for Auro 3D
Do you use the auro 3D? they say that fronts speakers must be the same but mine don't, these impact so? I already bought the RP150M to height speaker, RP160M is the main front. what do you think?
I don't use Auro 3D but i think you'll be fine if the speakers are the same brand and series.
*a little note
on your center (RP-25-C) video, the lighting on you was way worse than this one and your music inserts was very loud compared to your talking.
I was constantly adjusting the volume to go through it.
That being said, great vids, i enjoy them, and i'm also a klipsch owner / fun. (RF-3II, RC1)
Hi! Thanks for the comment. Yeah, that one got away from me. I've learned from it, and I'm very conscious in making a constant volume all the way through the video.
Thanks for getting back to me. Keep doing what you do. Nice work!
Thank you!
Upgrade your DENON with Auro 3D and you want be listening to Atmos anymore. Try it out. And it is much easier to setup.
+Andy W Hi! Two questions: do I have to pay for this upgrade? And does this decode the atmos soundtrack in a different way?
Techno Dad it's $199 for the upgrade. If you go to your settings you'll find it. The speaker setup is different and that will mess up Atoms.
Auro will cost you a arm and a leg in additional speakers.
I think I'll stick to Atmos and DTS:X for the time being!
10 feet of snow??

Hey "Dad", what's up with the hair??? Not so much dad anymore.. Not a good look mate...
Brian Arnold Thanks!

+Roland Allen Jr Yup! My wife got a job so I can spend money on home theater equipment. Last time I bought anything like this was in 2005. And since I just got these two, I can now setup Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. So yes, I'm excited!
