Very happy with purchase

Speakers are great as front speakers in my AV system. Very well packaged and delivered on time. Kind of. One speaker arrived on time but the second arrived later. Wish I knew they had different tracking numbers. Thought the second was either not shipped or lost.

Forever Klipsch

These speakers are awesome. I also have an old pair of Klipsch Icon KF-28'S that still sound great. I wanted to upgrade a little bit and these sure did the trick!

Room filling sound

Coming from bookshelf 2.1 and adding these with a center channel to create a 5.1 system has been nothing less than impressive. These speakers are able to carry impressive lows and absolutely fill the room with a full range of sound. These speakers are legit.

It was good with its price tag!

It had more bass that I had to switch my yamaha bass off. In general, it was a good speaker. But compared to last 10 years, the speakers quality was not spectacular dued to materials and labors raise up. For me the speaker was good with its price tag. To be more spectacular buyers should look on RP (Reference Premier) speakers.

R 820 F my evaluation.

These R820F speakers produce stage quality sound. I can hear every chord, string, and percussion of all my music.

Nice surround towers

The 820 towers keep up well as surround speakers to my rp8000f mains and rp-504c center speaker. Works very well in movies but really shine in listening to multi channel music. I am very happy with my choice.

Loving Klipsch Floorstanding Speakers R/RP series.

Am the Owner of a few range of Klipsch Floorstanding Speakers, however, the R and RP series with 8" woofers blow my mind. Very much impress with the quality and refine sounds produced.I have 2 audio systems, one for just music and second for THX sound for movies/tv. My music system is all Klipsch...next to upgrade the THX movie/tv speakers.The music audio for me with Klipsch Floorstanding Speakers is the Best..Classic Rock/Reggae/Blues/Salsa/Jazz...

Great value

This is not my first large dual woofer Klipsch. These have the typical frequency response as the other Klipsch: a forward bass and a dip at the crossover (1 to 2k hz). That said, they are on the bass heavy side, weak midrange, and dark. Many will like them as is. As for myself, an audiophile, I flattened the bass and the midrange dip by plugging the bass ports and eq'ing a + 1.5 db bump at 1k and 2k hz. Now a true audiophile speaker. Very happy.

R-820f incredible sound

Love the sound quality of these speakers! Next need to finish off getting a few more speakers to finish off my atmos system. Klipsch has been the speaker system I've been slowly building too. Now need center channel and rears with atmos speakers and I'll be complete. These two are already incredible clarity and sound by themselves. Can't wait to finish up the rest the system!!!

Very pleased with these speakers!

The sound is incredible! Honestly was not expecting these speakers to be this amazing! The clarity of the mids and tweeters are great and the BASS! Seriously did not expect this much bass. Awesome awesome speakers so super happy with them! Paired with my 15" Cerwin Vegas, and Klipsch 15" subwoofer..... I now have my dream setup. I'm powering the Klipsch towers with a Crown xls 1000 pushing 215 watts per channel at 8 ohms, and my Cerwin Vegas with a Crown xls 2002 pushing 650 watts per channel at 4 ohms. My stereo system is insane!!! Thank you.

Pink Floyd

I've had many brands of speakers over the last 60 yrs, I still have 9 Klipsch speakers, that I could use, but wanted to try something new. I'm amazed at the sound of music note separation and clarity. I'm using these in my mind cave , and I played Pino Floyd Comfortably Numb Awesome

Comparable to A190

They sound great comparable to JBL A190 speakers that I'm using for front speakers they are pretty close to same size when I first hooked them up the highs weren't sounding as good i guess from being new maybe had to warm up but sound good after a few minutes of playing

Awesome speakers!

Better than I expected. These replaced Mach 1 speakers I had and always loved. Decided after 40 years and much research to give these a try. The sensitivity was first noticed and the separation and overall response was amazing. The highs are crisp but not overwhelming. The bass comes in tight and not booming. A very easy to listen to sound that is clear and enjoyable. Back in the 70s, a friend invited me over to hear his new Klipsch speakers. It was truly amazing and I had always wanted to get some when I could afford them. Wish I had not waited this long. Great job Klipsch!

Value per dollar is great!

I recently purchased these from Klipsch direct. They arrived double boxed. I found them to sound best about 8 ft apart with a toe in to about 6" outside the ears. I didn't care for the OEM plastic feet. I replaced them with steel bolts and nuts. A noticeable improvement for sure -- harder and tighter. I have carpet, fabric furniture, and I like the grilles on. A +2 in the treble is great. I would purchase them again. Thank you!

bring those in

These Speakers replaced a set of Tangents I had for 30 + years, big shoes to fill. They look and sound fantastic. A fresh approach in a remodeled room.

Klipsch R-820F Floor Standing Speakers

If looking for great speakers the R-820F has you covered. These speakers feature a rich sound that is sure to give you the feeling of being in a concert or movie theater. If bass is your thing these speakers have you covered. They also look great.

Upgraded from B20 bookshelf to R820F towers

Great sound, I just got these R820F at a great price, I've had the B20 bookshelf speakers for about 6 years now and decided to upgrade the front speakers for a better stereo effect and move the B20 to the side for a 7.2 surround sound effect' so far I'm impressed'

Way 2 much Bass !

I was excited enough to buy a pair for myself & my son bcz of the Klipsch reputation, as well as the price point... ... unfortunately, these speakers do not help the Klipsch legacy as they are so bass heavy that the live recordings I play need t have the bass dropped out so much that bass player's contributions are not there - not good for either Phil Lesh or John Entwhistle afficionados...

Klipsch user since the 80's

I actually had a pair of la scala's back in the eighties in an apartment. 15" woofer, large mid range horn and and large horn tweeter, super efficient. I recently picked up a pair of R-820F speakers, once again impressed. Great sound.

About Klipsch R-820F

FEATURED REVIEWS

Don't let the price fool you.

By Mickey

I was able to score a pair of these on sale for $249 each. This was an unbelievable deal. I upgraded from R-610F's and it was totally worth it. These speakers rock at any volume with no distortion. I'm feeding them 130 watts each and you can tell they want more. Very happy with my purchase.

Klipsch R-820F Speakers

By Rene

Excellent sound and quality. I am elated with the superb sound reproduction. All instruments sound rich and clear.

The Klipsch R-820F floorstanding speaker fills your room with amazing detail and clarity. Leveraging our proprietary horn-loaded technology and featuring dual 8" spun-copper IMG woofers, the R-820F delivers lifelike acoustics that brings your music and movies to life.

Tractrix Horn Technology
Klipsch exclusive 90 x 90 Degree Tractrix horn technology ensures the R-820F high-frequency energy is aimed at the listener and reduces artificial reverb or filtering caused by indirect sound bouncing off of walls. Using this proprietary focused technology gives you the best clarity, dynamics, and detail from your movies and music.

Linear Travel Suspension Tweeter with Kapton Suspension
Klipsch exclusive Linear Travel Suspension (LTS) aluminum tweeter minimizes distortion for enhanced, detailed performances. Using Kapton, an extremely light and rigid material, in the tweeter suspension provides high efficiency and improves resolution and detail. LTS tweeters are a hallmark of Klipsch speakers, making them some of the best speakers in the world.

Spun Copper IMG Woofers
Injection Molded Graphite (IMG) woofer cones are exceptionally light while being extremely rigid - providing remarkable low frequency response, with minimal cone breakup and distortion. When paired with the Tractrix Horn-Loaded LTS Tweeter, it provides speaker efficiency highest in its class.

Rear Tractrix Port
The rear Tractrix port is perfectly matched to the cabinet and woofers, creating ideal airflow with minimal distortion or turbulence even at the lowest frequencies.

Sleek Design
Exposed fasteners, angled feet, low profile magnetic grilles and a scratch-resistant, textured wood grain vinyl give the R-820F floorstanding speaker a polished, modern appearance.

High Quality Cabinet Design
Reinforced MDF construction reduces cabinet vibration for less audible coloration and improved sonic accuracy - giving you the ultimate listening experience that's built to last.
