#39 Klipsch The Nines: $999.99 Crutchfield eBay

Pros: The 1.7dB response span from 300Hz to 5kHz supports even mids, and measured -3dB extension is 42.5Hz. Extensive consumer connections and app adjustment make it convenient for TV and music, while the horn provides a focused listening presentation.

Cons: The 5.99 ideal-subwoofer score reflects limitations beyond the narrow midband span. Horizontal coverage is relatively focused, so placement matters for multiple seats. The reviewer preferred reduced treble, and bass limiting at higher playback levels means the large woofer is not a guarantee of unlimited output.

How it compares: Just above it: JBL 708P - $3000 more, 260W more output power. Just below it: JBL 306P MKII - $602 cheaper, 128W less output power.
