The Klipsch RP160M (upgrade over 150M) is more efficient with power. Its also a 6.5″ woofer https://smile.amazon.com/Klipsch-RP-160M-Bookshelf-Speaker-Ebony/dp/B00RNZ6BXA

Zeos!
I’ve been a huge fan for a long time. Thank you so much for all of the great videos and reviews.
I’ve been in the market for a 5.1 surround sound system for a while now. My room is roughly 15×15 with ten foot ceilings.
The other day I saw a sale on Adorama for a 5 speaker klipsch setup for only $1300. It included
Klipsch Reference Premiere RP-160M Bookshelf Speaker, Pair, Ebony
2 x Klipsch Reference Premiere RP-280F 2-Way Floorstanding Speaker, Single, Ebony
Klipsch Reference Premiere RP-450C Center Speaker, Pair, Ebony
This seems like an insane deal so I grabbed it immediately but I see you haven’t reviewed them. I noticed you recommended the RP-280f to someone here on reddit so I assume that means they’re not gonna be bad.
So my question is, do you think I need a subwoofer? They seem pretty bassy but I won’t really know until I get them. Secondly, can you recommend me a receiver for these? You’ve mentioned Klipsch’s scary highs so I don’t want a receiver that is overly bright if that will be an issue.
Thank you again so much!! I really appreciate all of your guides and information that you put out here!

Honestly if you have 1000-1200$ to spend on a system you want to get loud and low I wouldnt spend 50% of that budget on the amp. Deep accurate bass will 100% require a sub, and a good one at that. For the price youre looking to spend I would go with something like this…..

This setup will go low and crazy loud.
