Speaker Comparison Review - Klipsch RP500M vs. ELAC Debut 5.2 vs. KEF Q150

This is a speaker comparison review between the Klipsch RP500M, the ELAC Debut 2.0 B5.2, and the KEF Q150. I decided to compare these three because they’re similar in terms of size, weight, and general design. If you can find them on sale, they’re also similar in price. At the time of my purchase, all three were on sale at Crutchfield, an awesome and reputable online A/V dealer in the USA - the ELAC were $230 (MSRP $290), the KEF were $300 (MSRP $600), and the Klipsch were $380 (MSRP $480). All prices here are USD and rounded up to the nearest dollar. While I don’t address the price discrepancy in the video, I will say that the ELAC is an excellent deal with an MSRP under $300, while the Q150 I feel is overpriced at it’s MSRP of $600, but a good deal at $300, and the Klipsch is good deal with an MSRP under $500, and an outstanding deal if you can find it under $400. I drove them using an Onkyo 8050 stereo receiver, with a variety of sources
