Digital camera reviews of Klipsch WF-34 Icon W Series Furniture-Grade Floorstanding Speaker (Espresso, Each)
Digital camera Review: It's like decor, that makes noise!
Summary: 5 Stars
Having never spent much money on speakers before, I was kind of hesitant dropping this kind of money on speakers. But I spent a lot of time combing through reviews, reading technical information about speaker construction and performance, and frequently visiting forums for insights. But in the end I wasn't very impressed - most "respectable" speakers came in a single variety. Piano black boxes. As someone with a great deal of natural wood and earth tones in my apartment, I was apprehensive about buying a big black shiny box that would stand out with that much contrast and draw so much attention to itself. Now, I understand that most of the impressiveness of a high-grade speaker is in the technical design. But to my logic, there are plenty of fantastic speaker manufactures out there that make great products, that I should be able to find something that I think looks good and fits my decor. These fit the bill wonderfully, providing impressive sound in a cabinet that looks gorgeous. I would have actually preferred the Cabernet finish, I think that's about the best looking finish I've seen an ANY speaker, but it just wouldn't have matched as well. The Espresso finish of the wood is a rick dark color, and is an actual wood veneer over 3/4" MDF. It feels really solid, and at this point it actually the nicest furniture I have in my living room, acoustics aside.
Now, before you get the impression that I bought these on looks alone, I want to stress that they sound even better than they look. The XT Tractrix Horn does an impressive job of diffusing the sound from the tweeter, without overly noticeable drops in sound quality. This really maximizes the effective "sweet spot" listening area. The three mid-range woofers complement well, delivering full spectrum sound that doesn't sound too bright or low. This speaker does lack somewhat in the deep lows, but this was expected given the compact size, and is not an issue anyway when paired with a decent subwoofer, which I intend to do eventually. While listening to music, it so accurately produces that it sounds like the artists are performing in my living room. Simply amazing sound!
Here is my current set-up:
LG 47LH90 47-Inch 1080p 240 Hz LED Backlit LCD HDTV, Glossy Black/Infused Blue
Pioneer VSX-1120-K 7.1 Home Theater Receiver
PlayStation 3 160 GB

Klipsch WB-14 Icon W Series Furniture-Grade Bookshelf Speakers (Espresso, Pair)
I bought the whole Icon W series line for a full 5.0 system, and because Klipsch is clearing these out for the next series, the prices that they're going at are unbeatable. In fact, I had intended to buy the Klipsch WF-35 Icon W Series Furniture-Grade Floorstanding Speaker (Espresso, Each), but they had sold out before I could get a pair. Get these now, before you loose your chance!
Summary of Klipsch WF-34 Icon W Series Furniture-Grade Floorstanding Speaker (Espresso, Each)
