do you need to break these speakers in? how long do you typically take?

I'm not aware of any break-in period needed for these speakers. Mine sounded great right out of the box.

I don't know the technical answer, but mine worked well and sounded incredible right out of the box.

200 hours of play for the drivers to break in and loosen up. Right out of the box, it sounded great! I have the rb 61 II, the break in period was told by my local klipsch dealer. Hope this helped.

I have read yes and no. I chose the "safer" route and turned on my Integrated Amp for a couple hours then played 3-4 CDs at moderate levels. Since then, I have freely cranked it up to 11 :-) Great Mid & Highs!! Bass is ok.

There might be a more hardcore audiophile out there (though I am a professional musician) who could tell a difference, but these sounded perfect right out of the box. I've had them for 2 years and couldn't be happier with them.

I usually get 1-2 days of use out of them depending on my volume settings. Definitely a full day's worth, though.

As long as you can attach these items via regular speaker wire, you should be fine. Ours are still going strong --- with phenomenal sound for the price. As someone else said, these aren't top of the line, BUT I've never once regretted this purchase. They've served us well for nearly 3 years now. Good luck!

I really couldn't say. We use them in the kitchen and they are usually just plugged in. When we've had them other places it seems like it only takes an hour or two. Hope that helps. They are great little speakers and we're happy with them. The only issue we fou d is that the switch is a little cheap but otherwise a great buy.

We bought an amp to go with them. These are subwoofers and accentuate the bass in songs. I think you probably just need new speakers.

I recommend replacing the speakers that are blown. You will not get the full sound quality you deserve with those blown speakers

These require a burn in period in order to loosen up the drivers. Leave them overnight with some loud music and you will hear a huge difference after that.

These speakers work well in all applications. The packaging has the ideal box size for sealed, ported, and band pass boxes. This size is for the interior cubic feet or inches. Follow the ideal size and you should have a great sounding box. After about 4 months of use, readjust your eq settings to compensate for speaker break in time.

You shouldn't notice much difference in sound from when these are new and after they have played for a couple thousand hours... These are surround speakers so should be either the rear or side speakers which get very little use. Effect speakers in general see under 5% of what the front sound stage will see... I have never seen any proof that speakers needed to "break in", hook them up and enjoy...

I personally would not. Just break the speakers in easy. Keep them at a low volume for a while and build up slowly to prevent any damage / distortion / etc. I continue to be impressed by these speakers.

Not a significant amount but would give them five to ten hours at about 70% power for the breakin. Listening at that level is also fine. They should mellow a bit after that. Not an extreamly loud headphone anyway. Pretty accurate but position on the ear makes a difference. Will be tight at first.

These are passive speakers, they have to be pushed by a power amp. If you register online at Behringer.com the warranty is three years.

They sure will, crisp clean and pretty impressive for how small they are, be sure to run them with a nice amp, and don't forget they have a 20 hour break in period, as all nice speakers do, so don't crank them right away, and set your amp to small speaker size as well, you'll be happy, I am

You can just wire them in but I would suggest buying the next size bigger. For me, I had to fabricate extensions onto the speakers otherwise the speakers fall thru the opening. Larger speakers should also push more sound, these are kind of weak for the application and considering how low the speakers are in reference to the overhead speakers. Good luck! I did buy a low profile subwoofer with built in amp to add to the bass. Sounds much better with the sub.

But they should work alright when you first get them. Make sure you have the speaker wire leads in properly. if that doesn't work and take the RCA plug remove it and then bend the little clips in a little bit,and then stick the RCA plug back on

Did you somehow break these? I would definitely recommend reaching out to Klipsch. Most likely wear and tear or accidentally breaking these seen covered but it never hurts to ask and be honest about it. I love these headphones id be devasted if I lost or broke these. Luckily you could typically find another pair for under $100

Solution: break in time. I've had 2 pair and both were incredibly muddy/heavy bass out of the box. Audiophile friend suggested breaking them in. Hooked them to a receiver and played music at moderate listening level through each of them for a few days. Result was incredibly wonderful sound - best headphones I've ever had. I've had them for over one year and love them more each day. Listen to them daily.
