Product Description
The XF48 speaker is part of Klipsch's Reference Icon series of premium high-performance speakers designed to complement flat panel video systems. This powered floorstanding speaker has a 110 watt amplifier in the speaker cabinet. That means you can hook the speaker directly to a TV with a variable audio output and enjoy walloping sound without a separate amplifier. You'll discover the XF-48's performance has but one rival: style. Its beautifully crafted aluminum extruded enclosure, featuring an anodized black-grain finish and high-gloss black accents, is the direct result of our engineers' quest for perfect balance. The entire Icon X Series is performance art at its best, capturing the spirit of our past and pushing us into the future. It is a brilliant representation of how our products have evolved and remained desirable over time. After just one listen, the Icon sound will be imprinted in your consciousness forever. low frequency drivers Dual 5.25 (13.3cm) high-output, fiberglass cone woofers with dual 5.25 x 9 (13.3cm x 22.9cm) passive radiators amplifier HF - Class A/B, LF - Class D Bass-reflex via dual front-firing passive radiators inputs Line-level RCA jack, high-level speaker binding posts height 48.8 (123.8cm) x width 7 (17.8cm) x depth 7.9 (20cm) not including 12 (30.5cm) diameter base / weight 39lbs (17.7kg) voltage 110/120 VAC 60Hz

Amazing speaker for the price
 
Review Date: March 22, 2010
Reviewer: Thang Nguyen, Denver, CO
I never thought that I'd be able to afford speakers that had a retail cost of $2,500 a pair or $1,250 for each. That time finally came when I decided to replace my Polk setup. I ended up purchasing the Klipsch XF-48 towers that I use as my left and right speakers along with the matching XL-23 LCR center channel and two additional XL-23 LCR's as the surrounds on the XFS matching stands. I must say that they are absolutely incredible, even being used as stereo sound. They have a large range for frequency response, and handle the highs, mids, and lows extremely well. The highs aren't too bright and overall the speakers give out a warm sound that I love.

The XF-48 towers have a line-level input (digital coax cable) as well as a speaker-level input (speaker wire). Not many speakers give you this option but it's available on the XF-48's because each speaker has a built in 110-watt amplifier. I used the speaker-level input for about a week but ended up using the line-level input since I thought it sounded better and it also allowed for my receiver to not waste it's power on these speakers since they are already amplified.

Sound during music was great and even sounded better with movies. The design and looks of the speakers also helped in making my decision. They are very classy looking and don't take up as large of a space as many other floor standing speakers. I also like the blue light that glows on them. The only bad thing I can say about this speaker is that each speaker needs to be plugged into an outlet since they have a built in amplifier. If you know a store that you can demo these, please take a listen. I'm not sure what else I can say other than order these now. You'll be happy with your purchase, I know I am.
Great sound, style, clarity... wow!

Reviewer: R. Vigil,
Overall, I'm happy with my purchase of the Klipsch XF-48s. These are probably the nicest speakers I have ever owned. They sound bright and clear, with great lows and bass balance too. Just a really clean sound. I've been digging through my music collection to see how different tracks sound when played through these babies. So far so good!

I have my XF48s plugged into my computer via a Firewire audio interface utilizing the line-in connection. As a result, there is virtually no noise until I hit play - then it's pure brilliance!

Now, I've been lusting after the XL-23s and sub to put together a complete a 5.1 system.
