FAQ:
Q: Can these speakers be used as standard surround speakers at 8 feet high if I do not have an atmos avr and am running klipsh towers, center and sub?
A: These speakers are not meant to mount "high" and are designed to sit on top of your towers for a little background noise, especially if your receiver isn't Atmos compatible. It is recommended to install them in the ceiling for a better surround sound experience.

Q: If these were mounted on the rear wall at the recommended height as atmos speakers (not surround) would it still give the same atmos experience?
A: Yes, it would still provide the same atmos experience as long as they are mounted at the recommended height and location according to Dolby Labs.

Q: I currently have klipsch rf-82 fronts. Will these work well on top of those?
A: Yes, you can use them on top of your RF-82 fronts, but they will need a separate speaker connection from your receiver to the Atmos speakers. For best results, the seating area should be around 10-14 feet from the tower speakers and the ceiling height less than 12ft.

Q: Can I buy 4 of these and use two for surround position and 2 on top of my r26f? I won't be using r 14 s than. I am using marantz sr5011.
A: Yes, you can use them for surround and/or atmos according to Klipsch's website.

Q: How do these compare to svs prime elevation?
A: We are not familiar with the SVS prime elevation speakers, but the Klipsch RP-140SA speakers work well as intended as additional speakers in a multi-speaker system or for "faux" ATMOS overhead effect on appropriate recordings or movies.

Q: Does this come with wall mounts in the box?
A: These speakers will not come with separate wall mounts in the box, but they do come with "keyhole" mounts already installed. You can use these to hang the speakers off a screw in the wall.

Q: Do these come with speaker covers?
A: Yes, they do come with speaker covers.

Q: Why are these angled?
A: They are angled so that if sitting on floor speakers, the sound will bounce off the ceiling and angle down to the listener, or if they are mounted on the ceiling, will not shoot the sound straight down but will angle it toward the listener.

Q: How do you hang these speakers? Does it come with something?
A: With the slanted configuration of the speaker, these Klipschs are not intended to be hung or used as surround speakers in a 5.1 or 7.1 set-up. They are intended for placement on top of front tower speakers, so that their sound is radiated upward for reflection off the ceiling, thus providing a "faux ATMOS" effect in rooms and locations which are not amenable to installation of the usual ceiling speakers called for in a true Dolby ATMOS set-up. The speakers come with 4 rubber feet and no hardware for hanging, as they are intended for placement as just described on the flat tops of your front R/L Main speakers.

Q: Does this Klipsch Dolby Atmos come as a set for $299?
A: Yes, it comes as a set of 2 speakers for $299. However, for $35 more, you can get the larger version: Klipsch R-41SA, which is the 2nd pair of Atmos speakers.
