Miraculously active half-timers
The guitar on them is wonderful, they play any acoustics with a bang, with regards to any modern pop music this is not for them.
Without the stands the sound is noticeably different. But that's probably how it should be.

Video reviews

The Klipsch R-51PM bookshelf speakers embody the American brand’s many years of experience and tradition in creating Hi-Fi speakers. Plus, this is an active system that automatically saves you from the often tricky task of matching an amplifier.

Simple and tasteful

Cabinets measuring 34x18x23 cm are made of MDF covered with a wood-textured vinyl wrap. The manufacturer doesn’t spoil you with a wealth of colors—only black is offered—but the bronze woofer cones look great against it. If you prefer, you can hide them behind black grilles that conveniently attach with magnets.

Connectivity options

On the rear panel of the main speaker, there’s a block with USB Type-B, optical input, AUX, and RCA, as well as a port for connecting an external active subwoofer if the bass isn’t enough for someone.

The built-in phono preamp and a dedicated terminal for a grounding cable make these speakers an excellent match for turntables, and Bluetooth lets you stream music wirelessly from a laptop or smartphone.

Sound that won’t disappoint

Covering a frequency range of 68–21000 Hz, the sound is handled by 1-inch Tractrix 90x90º horn tweeters and 133 mm IMG woofers. The bass isn’t very deep, but it’s open and well-textured, and there’s not the slightest hint of boominess even at above-average volume. The mids are rich and emotional, with beautifully readable decays; the soundstage is deep and spacious with an immersive effect. The HF band may seem overly “bright” to some, but don’t worry—you won’t hear sibilance even at high volume.

Conclusion

The Klipsch R-51PM will suit audiophiles and anyone who simply loves quality sound and ease of use. The reasonable price ($650) and a wide range of connectivity options will appeal to many users, and the speakers’ compact size and, at the same time, a decent power reserve (up to 120 W) will be a definite plus in smaller rooms.
