What can I say...Should have bought two pair. These are great. Paid $400 for a pair at Kadena AB. KG4 where up against JBL L100t, Infinity, Bose 901, AM5(1987) The only speaker that was better sounding was Klipsch Forte and that was to close to call. Won't be getting rid of these anytime! I think Klipsch makes the best sounding speaker. At least they did when they used wood cabinets not press board.

none that i can discern at this point.

i have never been happier since i aquired my second set of
kg4s! One set of kg4s is heaven sent'but two pair will leave you absoutley astounded and left with a sense of complete awe at what can be heard through the human ear!!! I say enjoy whatever you have for speakers'but when you hear A set of klispch you might just change your mind!! I hope you will open your mind and give klispch a chance if you ever run into them. Remember life is to short to quibble over the short points we percieve. If you see something valuable to your own eye' go for it just hope its klipsch or posibly as good as klipsch or you might be gravely upset!!!!

always listening Travis!!!!!!

Great bass without compromising highs. Really fills a room with sound

Size in a small room

Great speakers -- well designed and built to withstand a nuclear attack. These will deliver great sound not just in the short term, but for decades of use.

Incredible sound, Oak cabinets, sound range

they don't make them anymore!

I picked up my pair 10 years ago, and I will not part with them,or replace them unless I blow them up!(which I can't see happening) I have pushed these babie to they limit and they still sound the same as the day I hooked them up for the first time. I have upgraded my system a few times over the years, but I still have not found a speaker to replace these. I use the Yamaha RX-V2092 receiver(100Watt) to push these puppies, along with the KSW-15 Powered Subwoofer, KSC-C1 Center channel and the KM2 bookshelf speakers (wall mounted). As you can see I'm a Klipsch speakers Fan. I'm in the USAF and I have to admit it is a bit much for a Dorm room, all my friends love watching movies in room! Over their own systems, which says alot, if you have even seen Air force dorms in Japan (hehee we could have our own audio sale with the extra, replaced items under our bads). I listen to all different types of Music at low and High volumes, Movies on VHS and on DVD, I even play my Sony Playstation through my system. These speakers can do it all, and ask for more. I have had people offer to buy them from me and I just smile, and say no thank you! People can't believe that they are 10 years old, I use Lemon Oil on the oak finished cases, with loving care! and I go through withdrawal symptoms every time I have to pack them up to move. (about every 2 years) If you can found a set of these BUY THEM! The Best 600.00 I ever spent!

Best speaker ever for 520 dollars.

Absolutly none.

I have owned these speakers for thirteen years. These speakers make music sound alive. they have played so loud your neighbors will think you have concert in home, but still sound good at low volume. I will never sell these speakers, they will go to the grave with me.

I HAVE HAD 2 PAIR OF KG 4'S FOR ABOUT 7 YEARS OR SO NOW I LOVE THEM I GOT THEM USED FOR ABOUT $250 FOR EACH PAIR PRETY GOOD DEAL I THOUGHT I POWER THEM WITH A DENON 80WAT PER CHANEL INT. AMP THE SOUND IS VERY REALISTIC AND THEY STILL SEEM TO PERFORM AS GOOD AS WHEN I FIRST GOT THEM I RECENTLY WENT TO A STEREO SHOP AND LISTEND TO SOME NEW KLIPSCH THEY SOUND ABOUT THE SAME AS MY OLD ONES AFTER 7 YEARS OR MORE I THINK FOR THE MONEY YOU CANT GO WRONG WITH THEM

Great sound for the money

A bit on the bright side, at times the horn is overbearing

Bought when putting a system together for my workspace. Midfi under $2000. It is 900sq ft w/a high roof. Mated with an NAD 2200 and 1155 they get loud as hell without distorting. Big low end. The horn gets a bit overbearing at high volumes. Sounds best at moderate volume. CD's on a Dennon 370 sound clear and a bit bright but Vinyl on the VPI JR with a Benz Glider and Audioquest PT8 arm sounds amazing. Very musical. Nice a punchy low end, don't need a subwoofer. Really open up about 3 inches away from a flat wood wall. Picks up nice mids and catches up with the horn a bit better than out in the room. Best sound I could get without spending several thousand dollars. Under $1000 used I don't think there is much better. At $400 they are a no brainer. Best to mate them with low end heavy components like the mid 80's NAD stuff. Don't skimp on power, they don't even breath hard with the 100plus watts.

none for $390 a pair

The KG4 was available in the military exchange at clark Ab in the Phillippines for $390 a pair. I had the Heresy and Forte to compare, along with myriad offerings from Polk, Infinity, AR, and JBL.
These Kg4's absoloutly smacked you with power and emotion. The range and bass they could kick out crushed competition. I heard these coupled to a Nakmichi Pa 7 power amp. These Kg4's sounded so clean and powerful that I thought that NOTHING on the market offered so much fro so little. They are totally topnotch small speakers. I loved the cabinet which I used to apply lindseed oil or lemon oil to bring out the woodgrain. If you see a pair of these babies, mate them with a CLEAN solid state or tube amp and they will be unadulterated sonic joy.

I've had a pair of KG4s for over 11 years now and they still kick ass. My AV system over the years have been replaced EXCEPT for the KG4s. They are simply the best speakers in the world for the price I paid for them ($500/pr). Nothing else comes close for the price. I now have added the KSW-300 subwoofer and man does my system sound great. I highly recommend these speakers..you won't be disappointed.

I bought them in 1991 - for about $500. The short of it is - they are the only componet I have not upgraded in the dozens of new pieces I have bought over the years. They handle anything I throw at them AMAZINGLY well. The passive radiator will make you numb (and your neighbors deaf!).
I didn't and haven't found a better speaker at their price point.
