BEST BUDGET 5.1 HOME THEATER SPEAKERS – Klipsch Reference Theater Pack Review

What the WHAT?! This 5.1 theater speaker set packs a PUNCH, along with an insane price point! And this ain’t some no-name brand either…it’s from KLIPSCH! So you know it’s quality. I review the Reference Theater Pack and give you a few pointers along the way. Check it out!

*CORRECTION: I made the mistake of circling the wire terminals and called them the “keyhole mounts” on both the satellite and center speakers. D’OH! My bad. The keyhole mount holes are actually in the exact spot as the ¼ ” threaded insert. Sorry for any confusion!

  2. @LeftBehind666 on August 9, 2025 at 9:10 pm

    How do you set this up? Do you have any speakers behind you?

  3. @CalCobra on August 9, 2025 at 9:11 pm

    Board games / liquor cabinet 🙂

  4. @LyonsAutomotive on August 9, 2025 at 9:12 pm

    Anyone know if I can pair these with a RSB-14 soundbar and wireless sub?

  5. @gsanchez922 on August 9, 2025 at 9:14 pm

    I will return a Denon X1800h and get a Onkyo NR7100. For my L/R I have Polk ES20. Just got those for my surround, center and elevation plus sub for $175 so when I recover I will then upgrade those 😁😁

  6. @michaeljustice7667 on August 9, 2025 at 9:15 pm

    Found the review too annoying to watch lol

  7. @bshamala9900 on August 9, 2025 at 9:16 pm

    Do you know if these are Dolby Atmos compatible? Or would I have to add some height speakers to be able to that? Thank You!

  8. @jonathanhaslon1901 on August 9, 2025 at 9:18 pm

    Use to sounds bars, new to systems. Are there cords i have to buy with tgis system?

  9. @SRX2004 on August 9, 2025 at 9:18 pm

    Wish these speakers were still available.

  10. @godzillaeatsushi4979 on August 9, 2025 at 9:20 pm

    Hi there for the wireless sub. Do I need wireless receiver to connect? Thank you

  11. @prabhuja7554 on August 9, 2025 at 9:21 pm

    I came from the Audio files Podcast 🎉❤

  12. @estherastudillo8647 on August 9, 2025 at 9:21 pm

    DTS?

  13. @johnrobbo916 on August 9, 2025 at 9:24 pm

    Sorry, I’m very new to the home theatre space.

    Are these Dolby atmos or i just need a receiver that’s Dolby atmos?

  14. @LucLeeRudd on August 9, 2025 at 9:27 pm

    So are all speakers wireless?

  15. @michalsejna8156 on August 9, 2025 at 9:27 pm

    you are funny bro:)

  16. @TurboLoveTrain on August 9, 2025 at 9:29 pm

    Spoilers: This is a PC audio setup.
    For those wondering what the single HDMI plug is for on your graphics card is for… it is for plugging your PC into your Amp/Reciever.

  17. @ninjapcmaster7005 on August 9, 2025 at 9:30 pm

    how do u plug that on your pc?

  18. @robertpal9 on August 9, 2025 at 9:30 pm

    How do these compare to a traditional 5.1 towers and rear speakers

  19. @DavidDoyle-n1o on August 9, 2025 at 9:32 pm

    Out of stock!

  20. @Nellis202 on August 9, 2025 at 9:33 pm

    Nahh , its called KLIPSCHFATIGUE !

  21. @hippo-potamus on August 9, 2025 at 9:37 pm

    More C R I N G E than funny. Skip the dumb gimmicks.

  22. @jazzman9469 on August 9, 2025 at 9:39 pm

    Thanks for the video. What speaker wire and plugs would be recommended? 14 gauge or 16? Or, does it come with speaker wires?

  23. @heybrentdavis on August 9, 2025 at 9:39 pm

    You lost me at Harry Potter.

  24. @robertlawson1184 on August 9, 2025 at 9:41 pm

    Best to put sub on a wall and about 4-6 inches away from wall. Never put sub on open space

  25. @victormoisa6935 on August 9, 2025 at 9:43 pm

    Why are these better than the Logitech z906? With the receiver you’d need to buy the Logitech would be cheaper plus they are thx certified

  26. @everyday_life1991 on August 9, 2025 at 9:46 pm

    Love the video. What avr would you recommend for this setup

  27. @daniellel.domingo4888 on August 9, 2025 at 9:46 pm

    What does the volume do on the subwoofer?

  28. @et8865 on August 9, 2025 at 9:46 pm

    Can you add another sub to this?

  29. @stevenbrown6782 on August 9, 2025 at 9:49 pm

    I have an older Yamaha rsv 379..Will that work..gift

  30. @issaciams on August 9, 2025 at 9:50 pm

    The satellites don’t do it for me but good review.

  31. @Arkzinox on August 9, 2025 at 9:50 pm

    I’m disappointed, I was excited to hear you read every work from the instruction Manuel and I would hoping for it to be done in a Mr Rogers voice. hahaha JK! Thanks for the reviwe

  32. @addonisryan on August 9, 2025 at 9:50 pm

    Klipsch speakers are not bright, they are articulate and revealing,.If you run them with an amplifier or source which is bight they will sem bright , if you run them with a smoother sounding amplifier they will sound much better.All Klipsch speakers are extremely articulate, and revealig.If yougive them crap they will sound like crap.

  33. @dane8176 on August 9, 2025 at 9:52 pm

    I just bought one of these used for 150$, pretty sure I just got a hell of a deal. Haven’t been able to try them out yet though.

  34. @CRAZYFACE-od2co on August 9, 2025 at 9:52 pm

    HE SAYS BUDGET HAHAHAHA

  35. @johnnycashlives316 on August 9, 2025 at 9:52 pm

    Is this wireless?

  36. @juanmoorethyme3119 on August 9, 2025 at 9:53 pm

    Just do the review, sound effects are annoying

  37. @D3V4NS11 on August 9, 2025 at 9:53 pm

    whole house

  38. @vaughnrhodes7315 on August 9, 2025 at 9:54 pm

    I work at costco and I brought it yesterday for $149.97

  39. @davidglenn2739 on August 9, 2025 at 9:57 pm

    Holy cow, the comments on this video…. Guess we all have to start somewhere and learn from zero…

  40. @furballbear on August 9, 2025 at 9:58 pm

    Is this better than the Monoprice HT-35 Premium 5.1-Channel Home Theater System? Using with the Sony STR-DH790 receiver in a 13′ x 13′ room with 9′ ceiling.

  41. @moneyzonetrader on August 9, 2025 at 9:59 pm

    how do i use with pc directly?

  42. @randomguy3034 on August 9, 2025 at 9:59 pm

    Greetings from the future.

    These speakers are still viable in small and medium sized rooms. Theyll probably be viable 10 years from now.

    Mind you I mostly roll with B&W speakers these days.

  43. @motoroadrunner9589 on August 9, 2025 at 9:59 pm

    How does it sound. Continues to just talk and not even show the audio from the system 😂

  44. @D3V4NS11 on August 9, 2025 at 10:01 pm

    biggest sub woofer

  45. @cameronspeed9052 on August 9, 2025 at 10:02 pm

    How do they sound at low volumes?

  46. @dwayned9929 on August 9, 2025 at 10:04 pm

    Bought the package with the Onkyo reciever and the reciever crapped out on me after a few months. Looking for a good replacement that will work with this package for a decent price

  47. @safe2speed271 on August 9, 2025 at 10:04 pm

    Getting this set for 100$ bucks just to use the satellites as atmos speakers

  48. @robinbroadwater2147 on August 9, 2025 at 10:06 pm

    @EalanOsborne :

    This is one of the funniest, AND most informative review videos that I have ever watched.

    ‘Did a search for reference speaker reviews, and this was a result.
    I’m not sure that this setup, or any part of it, would provide what I need, as I’m looking monitors, to knock out some light sound production.
    By the way, if you have any suggestions, on good, budget reference monitors, new or used, I would really appreciate your sharing.

    Did you compose the cinematic scores, used throughout your video?
    Man, that was MAGICAL!
    Each piece made me want to listen to whatever soundtrack they might have come from, and at least download the tracks that I heard.

    Your audio and video editing skills showed me that there’s a lot more that I want to learn.
    I’m hoping to do additional creative projects, and having a more diverse skillset could only be an asset.

    Whether any of the equipment, featured in it, would work for me, or not, I’m glad that I clicked on your video.

    Take Care.

  49. @JoseRamirez-re9hg on August 9, 2025 at 10:06 pm

    Nerd is annoying 🤓

  50. @BeamBoyz2 on August 9, 2025 at 10:09 pm

    I’m from even farther in the future, it’s $399
