DH: My wife and I were having difficulty hearing the dialogue when watching TV shows and movies. I'd read plenty of good reviews for this "entry level" Klipsch R 52C centre channel speaker.
So far we're extremely pleased with the clarity of sound and also it appears to be a well made speaker.
For what I paid I'm very happy and would highly recommend it although it appears that this model will soon be discontinued.

rgator87: Works awsome as a center channel speaker in a surround system. Pairs well with other Klipsch speakers to make your home theatre system sound great.

Ken J. Cayer: This speaker is much better than the center channel speaker I was using. The highs are crisp and the mid tones are spot on, also there are sufficient lows.

Dave: I had a small Polk center channel b4 I bought this. The Polk was ok, but it was very inexpensive and I got what I paid for. The dialog wasn't very crisp and the speaker had no presence. I had it turned all the way up on my receiver. This Klipsch speaker is night and day difference. The dialog is very crisp, even at low volume. I actually had to turn my center level down to blend in with my left and right speakers better. The speaker is a little heavier than I expected and that's not a bad thing because the wooden enclosure is solid. I really love that the grill is magnetic! It's super easy to take off and put back on, as opposed to trying to align rubber spikes with holes, this is a great feature. For $149, this is a no Brainer.

William Chiu: The R-C52 speaker sound is clear only if you are sitting within 10 feet. It is not good enough if you are sitting farther away. The size is a bit height. Not nice sitting in front of the TV. The model R-C34 or R-C30 is better because they are slimmer however the price is more than double! You just pay for look. Other than that the sound quality and clarity is the same as the R-C52. I feel the R-C52 is a good value.

Darren Goodman: Replaced a cheaper older Polk with this one. Matches the rest of my Klipsch setup. Noticed a difference in the sound right away. Dialogue is easier to understand and overall a bit louder with same volume setting. Would purchase again.

VULCAN: I have two systems. A large McIntosh 9.2 system for my serious listening, movies, BluRay live concerts, etc. That system comes in at just a little under $85,000 including speakers.

*My day system is a Marantz 7705 flagship Pre-amp, paired with the Marantz 7055, 5 channel surround amp using MIT interconnects. I use just 3 channels for my day system, two Kilpsch Heresy's for main L&R and this Klipsch R-52C center channel. Speakers are wired using 256 strand, pure OFC 10 ga wire with gold plated banana plug terminations. The subwoofer in the day system is the McIntosh MT-2, dual 12" giant 100 pound passive sub, 4 Ohm, hooked to a 300W plate amp made for subs only, and made for 4 Ohm speakers/subs.

First thing one notices is this little center channel speaker is HEAVY, and clearly well constructed! For those familiar with specs, this speaker is efficient and easy for an amp to run. All Klipsch products can get loud yet remain clear - though this is far from my top priority. But, presenting an easy load to your amp to run is a win win. The Heresy's also present a very manageable load to an amp, so all 3 hooked to my day system is not a rough load to handle as most 4...
