Questions & Answers

Is this compatible with the 500m, or do I need to get the 500c to make it work? (I'm running out of room)?

Every audio professional will advise you to timbre-match your music. Speakers in the center should be paired with speakers on the left and right. It appears to be especially important for home theater, where dialogue or music/sound effects may cross the sound stage from left to center to right, for example. Timbre matching (same manufacturer, same series, same speaker diameter) allows the sound to pass through smoothly with no tone change. br>br>Having said that, I am not an audiophile and bought the RP600Ms for L/R first. When I went shopping for a center later, I discovered that the 600C would not fit in my cabinet. The 400C was the only one that would fit. This system is my sole source of music, and it sounds fantastic to my ears.

Will this pair of bookshelf speakers (r-) be good? 41m)?

Thank you for your inquiry. The Klipsch R41PM wireless bookshelf speaker is a good choice. It necessitates the use of a Bluetooth receiver or device capable of streaming to the R41PM. Any of the Klipsch RP (Reference Premiere) models are recommended if you have a receiver capable of powering wired speakers. The RP- Any of the Reference Premiere (RP) bookshelf models would look great with a 400C center channel. br>World Wide Stereo is a proud authorized Klipsch dealer and has been in business for 40 years.

How big is it?

Klipsch's website has the following information: 16- 5/16"W x 1/16"W 3/4"H x 9-1/2"W x 3/4"H x 9-1/2" 1/2"D

Is this compatible with the Cambridge AXC35 audio CD player?

The 400c isn't an audiophile, but it has excellent sound quality, particularly for movies and conversations.

Selected User Reviews For Klipsch RP-400C Center Channel Speaker (Ebony)

When given enough room, most voices sound great
4/5

Because your center speaker will primarily be used for voice tracks, you'll want something that can accurately reproduce voices. This speaker does a fair job with 95% of voices, but (oddly) gives some male voices a 'boxy' sound - It's as if they're speaking through their hands, cupped together. This can be mitigated by moving the speaker a foot or two away from the wall, but this is difficult in most setups. br>br>I'm not an audiophile, so this 'boxiness' isn't a personal preference - You won't be able to ignore it once you've noticed it. br>br>Most high/female voices sound fantastic, and low male voices are fine as well - However, it has trouble with male voices that aren't as bassy, as well as some lower-pitched female voices. women's voices that have been amplified The tone of David Attenborough, for example, is distractingly bad. I spent a long time trying to figure out if I'd accidentally activated some strange EQ feature. If you turn off the center speaker and redirect his voice to the L, you'll be able to hear him better. It sounds great through the R speakers - As a result, the speaker is without a doubt to blame.

That said, this has only been a problem in maybe 5% of the things we have watched in the things we have watched in the things we have watche This speaker is fantastic 95% of the time, with clear and crisp reproductions and a surprisingly large soundstage for a center speaker.

The water is crystal clear
5/5

I'm suffering from RP R-500M for Front L/R, R-500M for R-500M for R-500M for R-500M for R Old Sony wall-mount, 120SW sub mounts for the backs of the vehicles However, it's a bad single-player game. To be honest, the speaker center sounded muddy and weak. I should have just run 4 1 and let the 500M's carry the load, but I decided to spend the extra money on this RP-X. Because I adore the Klipsch sound, I set the temperature to 400 degrees Celsius. I didn't make any timbre-related decisions. Because the 500C would not fit in my unit, I needed to pair it with the RP500C. However, my ears adore the sound quality of this system; the 400C is crisp and clear. I am overjoyed.

Great seller and purchase! To begin, I replaced a Klipsch R-80 with a new one
5/5

25 degrees Celsius, plenty of power, and a rock-solid foundation. This new speaker has a lot of brightness, and the voices aren't as muddy. The Denon 1600 was used to conduct the tests. For music, I chose Pink Floyd's Piper at the Gates of Dawn, Wish You Were Here, and Animals albums. All of them were extremely crisp, bright, and powerful. Next up was a mix of Tool, with double peddle coming out cranking and Maynard's voice being very clear (tool fans will know that sometimes his vocals get lost with the shredding of the guitar and drums). Finally, I attempted to channel an obscure 1980s band called Dead Can Dance. This band is known for its underground gothic sound, and Lisa Gerard has an angelic voice. I was blown away by how well the center speaker kept up with my two front 600-watt Klipsch stand speakers and added a crisp, punchy sound. Overall, I'm sold because it sounded great in all music genres, and the dialogue in movies and television shows was clearer, so I didn't have to turn up the volume to hear, which was one of my complaints with the previous one. br>The seller delivered the speaker in less than 2 days, and I always check their website for comparisons, so it was an excellent experience all around, and don't forget that Klipsch offers one of the best warranties on the market, so you know you're covered if something goes wrong.

The Klipsch RP-2000 is a fantastic little speaker
5/5

The 400C Center Channel Speaker is a center channel speaker with a powerful bass response. The Klipsch RP-100 is a high-end audiophile speaker. The 400C Center Channel Speaker is extremely effective. It significantly enhances your listening pleasure. Klipsch's Reference Premiere series of speakers is something I highly recommend. They have an incredible sound. If you can find them on sale, they're a fantastic deal and well worth upgrading to.

I can now hear voices (and music) for the first time
5/5

There are a lot of reviews out there for bookshelf speakers and this center channel - It's amazing how much of a difference it can make. Keep your amplifier, pair this center channel with Klipsch's RP600M, and you've got yourself a well-rounded home theater setup. The quality is incredible. I'm thinking about getting a sub, but I don't think I'll need it right now - a lot of bass!.

The sound is great, and it isn't too heavy
5/5

Don't forget to get the PREMIER series! There is a significant difference between it and the standard reference series. It will be more expensive, but it will be worth it if you choose Klipsch. This speaker is ideal for a small to medium-sized space. If you're covering a large or even somewhat large space, I'd recommend going up a size. I use it in a small dedicated theatre room. 2 Dolby Atmos and neuro x capable systems Six other b speakers are powered by a 140 watt marantz. With surround speakers and two subwoofers, this speaker is more than capable of keeping up.

It has a nice sound
5/5

A must-have for any home theater system. It has a nice sound. We used to turn off the sound system when we watched TV. That is no longer the case. This sounds fantastic when combined with my Klipsch subwoofer and bookshelf speakers (as well as my original rear speakers).

The speaker was fantastic
5/5

The speaker was fantastic. The center channel has a clear, lifelike sound. Enough power for a medium-sized room Speaker who is extremely effective. It also has a lovely appearance and feel to it. These Klipsch reference premium speakers are well worth the investment. I'm using a Denon AVR-2000 to power them. 3806.
