Customer Review: Awesome Surround Speakers
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been looking at these speakers (and the S-2 as well) for a while (I never found any better though the Bic PL-66 were intriguing), and all of a sudden these dropped below $200 (and the S-2), so I was compelled to take the plunge. A few days later, they arrived double-boxed and in perfect condition. After a few minutes they were upon the wall using the included keyhole flush mount. Like others have said: they are rather large and heavy. This is how they're able to create a wide range of frequencies and do so very efficiently. They also a dedicated surround speakers, not merely bookshelf speakers that go behind the listener, and because of this, they create a broad sound field that not only envelops the listener but also provides directional sound.
While a part of the Synergy series, I added these to my Infinity Studio Monitor towers and BIC America FH6-LCR Dual 6.5-Inch 175-Watt LCR Speaker with Mid/High Frequency Horn in the center. While not a perfectly matched setup, the Bic center channel shares Klipsch's horn-loaded tweeter design and all are highly efficient (measured in DB of sensitivity). You really can't go wrong with any of Klipsch's speakers, and these are no different. Don't wait long, as the dramatically low prices may not be here to stay and the speakers may be going away too (doubtlessly replaced by another solid design).
Description of Klipsch S-3 Synergy Surround Speakers (Black)
The Klipsch S-3 Synergy surround speaker delivers crystal clear sonic detail through the careful placement of two 1" Tractrix(R) Horn loaded aluminum-dome tweeters and one 6.5" IMG woofer. By aligning the two horns at 90 degrees with respect to each other, along with the front-firing woofer, the S-3 smoothly covers a 180-degree horizontal arc, allowing maximum placement flexibility. Equally adept to establishing enveloping ambient sound fields and localizing specific surround effects, the S-3 WDST surround delivers the full impact of special effects, resulting in the ultimate you-are-there experience. Available in a black finish with titanium accents, the contemporary look of the S-3 is two-fold. With its grille on, the S-3 offers a sense of elegance that nicely blends in with your home décor, but take the grille off and you get an aggressive and powerful statement that exudes extreme performance.The Synergy Series S-3 surround speaker has raised the bar; changing the way people experience their favorite music and movies at home. Utilizing Klipsch's exclusive Wide Dispersion Surround Technology(TM) (WDST), the S-3 brings an astonishing dimension of reality and accuracy to surround sound.
