“Klipsch’s full-size RF-83 Home Theater definitely sounds pricey. Its formidable transparency and resolution are a big part of that; you hear subtleties that other speakers gloss over. When I turn up the volume, the sound’s character doesn’t change, and there’s no sense of increasing distortion or strain; the sound simply grows louder.”
“The Reference speakers are all extremely efficient, so they can make a big sound even with a low-powered A/V receiver (50 watts would do in many rooms), and they’ll still accommodate powerhouse amps as well.”
"The References put the music first. Oh, and even without the sub, the RF-83's low-end slam was superlative—deep, tight, and as nimble as they come."
"...all of my DVDs with the more explosive soundtracks had the exhilarating impact I've heard in the best movie theaters."
