Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
The 6-piece Plat-6 surround-sound speaker system from KLH provides a cool-looking and affordable way to experience thrilling multichannel sound from your Dolby-/DTS-encoded DVDs and high-resolution DVD-Audio and Super Audio CDs. Built around the stylish, silver Platinum II Series 325 II bookshelf speakers, the system also includes a 4-driver center-channel speaker and a 100-watt powered subwoofer with a 10-inch, long-throw woofer to bring that extra degree of sonic realism and drive home your programs' low-frequency effects.

The 2-way left/right front and surround speakers each use a pair of 3.625-inch midrange woofers and a .875-inch liquid-cooled dome tweeter. Efficient and easily driven, the speakers are rated for use with amplifiers and surround receivers supplying anywhere from 5 to 125 watts per channel. The broad, relatively flat center speaker uses four 3.625-inch drivers and the same tweeter so you'll enjoy balanced, timbrally matched sound all the way around.

The sub uses a down-firing, long-throw woofer for deep, powerful bass down to an impressively deep 30 Hz. A low-pass filter rolls the top end of the sub's frequency response so you can match the low end of the satellites' range, ensuring seamless integration between them. The sub's variable crossover circuit ranges from 40 to 180 Hz.

The satellites and center speakers are magnetically shielded, so they can be placed on or near a TV or video monitor without degrading the picture via stray magnetic fields.

What's in the Box
Four satellite speakers, a center speaker, a powered subwoofer, speaker grilles, speaker wire, and a user's manual.

4 out of 5 stars The real KLH Plat 6 Review.......2003-12-30

All in all very nice. I would have liked to have seen binding posts on the speakers rather than clips but no matter. A very good system for the amount of money spent. My setup is a Panasonic CP72 DVD player and Sony STRDE885 amplifier and now Plat 6 system. First off let me say that the 80Hz-20kHz is kind of optimistic. Both the center and sats are probably at -3 at 80Hz. I can buy 20kHz though. After listening to Queensryche's Empire DVD-A in high-rez 5.1, I could hear some really detailed symbol work and subtle nuances, very nice! The sub is DEFINITELY capable of producing frequencies in the 40Hz range. My guess is 40Hz at 0, 35Hz at -3. It can get quite loud as well. The room my system is in is about 20'x15' and getting 108db isn't difficult. I set the sub for 80Hz and this seems to work well. Anyway like I said for music it is suprisingly good. Fantastic center channel! For movies it is equally as good (which is a first for me to have both with one system for this kind of money). Titanic, Terminator, Lord-of-the-Rings etc, absolutely wonderful bass and good clarity, especially in the vocal range. These are a bit taller than your standard "shelf" system due to the additional woofer in each sat but there is no fee lunch after all. The center channel is also fairly wide for the same reason. 4 woofers and a central tweeter. The curvature of the sats require that they sit a bit lower so that the tweeter is head level to gain the optimal amount of treble. If the bottom woofer sits at head level it could sound a bit tinny. They are aesthetically pleasing with the covers off or on. Great bang for the buck!

So what are the cons? The annoying very bright blue LED on the front of the sub could be a con or pro depending on the person. Clips rather than binding posts, a slightly optimistic frequency range on the center/sats, so-so wiring that comes with it...thats it! I enthusiastically recommend this product!
