Good speakers for surround sound
By and1nick on Reviewed in the United States on August 28, 2010
I got a super deal for these from Vanns(about 1/3 price of brick and mortar stores). Speakers were packaged nicely and I received them in a timely manner. I installed these as the surround sound left and right speakers in a 5.1 setup. These speakers are part of the Klipsch Synergy series so I also have 2 B2's, a C1 Center, and a KSW-10 sub. The KHC6's are driven by a Denon 889 receiver(100W x 7) and were set up using the Audyssey EQ feature. This was my first in-ceiling speaker installation and it was a breeze with the included cutout template. The hardest part about the installation was trying to avoid hitting a beam in the ceiling so make sure you measure twice and cut once. Once installed, you just tighten the screws for a sturdy installation. These speakers perform well as surrounds since voices/music sound crisp and clear. The ability to point the tweeters towards the main listening position is also a nice feature since it allows you to play with the soundstage to your liking. Bass output is adequate and I haven't heard any vibrations in the ceiling when I turn up the volume. Overall, this is a really good set of speakers that provides a clean look once installed. The only negative is that the grills would be a hassle to remove if you ever wanted to. I don't see how you can remove them without bending or scratching them. Most people would probably install these speakers and never worry about removing the grills, so forget about this minor detail and get them!

Packaging and Poor quality of the "refurbished" speakers
By Chris Belardinelli on Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2012
I didn't realize that the speakers that I purchased were refurbished! Second of all, I received the speakers in poor quality, not only were they not clean, they were missing 2 of the "dog" ears that hold the speakers in place in the ceiling. One of the "dog" ears was broken as well. I had to use 2 of the "dog"ears from one of the speakers, it had 4 total, now they both only have 2 "dog" ears holding each in the ceiling. If I was able to ship these back, I would, but I had a project to finish so I had to do with what I had. I'm very dissappointed not only at the fact that they were "refurbished" but that they were in such poor condition. If you refurbish your products, then you should control the quality of them before they are shipped. I'm also "VERY UNHAPPY" with the way they were packed. There was no template included in the box, nor the warranty information. I'm going to end this here, I am sure you get the Idea of how unhappy I was with this totally.

Sounds clear

These are very easy to install. The sound that they put out is more than I expected. The only downfall I notice was sound depth. The bass is lacking but for such a small speaker I guess it is to be expected.
Well worth it!!

I was not sure whether I wanted to try and install these on my own and was really freaked out when I cut a large hole in my ceiling but I'm glad I did it. It really was easy to do on my own. I figured I saved nearly $200 by installing myself. Speakers came with a cardboard template, all I did was trace it and cut it. As for the quality of sound, the are great! I paired these with my Klipsch floor speakers and the fullness of sound now is so much better.

Maybe they need some enclosures, they are just 'ok' for Klipsch.
Outstanding Speekers

I bought these speakers after reading reviews on just about everything that would have worked in my living room. I'm using them for all five of my in-ceiling speakers (front left, front right, center, and surrounds). I paired them with a Polk 12 inch subwoofer. The sound is much better than I expected even after reading the reviews. The quality of the sound in my living room exceeds the quality of sound in any theater that I've been in. No kidding, I suspect I got lucky with natural acoustics but I couldn't be happier with these speakers. There are two things I should point out. To start with these speakers couldn't be installed in most walls. They are too deep. My surrounds are in the wall but that part of my wall actually backs up to the attic. Obviously the speakers fit into the ceiling fine. Also be aware that when you tighten the screws that clamp the speakers onto the drywall it sometimes requires quite a bit of force to free the clamps from their housing before they start to tighten. Not so much force that you'll strip the screw but enough that you might think your hitting something behind the wall. If I ever do this kind of project again I'm define definitely looking for these speakers.
Excellent purchase!

I am impressed by the audio. I have it setup in my living room 5.1. With Pioneer VSX-1021-K and a Kilpsch refernce sub. Its worth the $$$, i should say that these speakers are worth the most bang for the buck.
Great Speakers

These are some awesome speakers and a great buy. I purchased Klipsch KL-6502-THX 5-way white in-wall speaker for my home surround sound front speakers, Klipsch KHC-6 In-Ceiling Loud Speakers for my in ceiling center speakers, Pure Resonance Audio MC2.5WAM Mini Cube Speakers 2.5" Swiveling Surround Sound Wall Plate Mount for my rear speakers, and I topped it off with a Klipsch Synergy C-3 Center Channel Speaker and a Denon AVR3310CI 7.1-Channel Network Home Theater Receiver. Talk about shake the house! Each set of speakers is extremely better than expected, even the little Pure Resonance Mini Cube speakers put out unbelievable sound. Everything was extremely to install, considering the house was pre-wired for installation. I am definitely pleased with every component of this system!
