Klipsch Cinema 600 is a 3.1 channel soundbar with a subwoofer. This 45” soundbar is good for mid-sized TVs. Dolby Audio tries to create virtual surround sound. This horn-loaded Cinema Series soundbar is good for movies and music. It can get quite loud withoutnoticeable distortions. Basic ports like HDMI, optical, 3.5mm are available. For a Dolby Atmos soundbar, check the Klipsch Cinema 800 or LG SP8YA.

Our Verdict

Klipsch Cinema 600 is a mid-priced soundbar system. Crisp highs, balanced mids and deeper low ends deliver impressive sound for music. Movies are good with accurate vocals and wide soundstage. You can use the Dialog mode but for music, disable the Surround mode for better sound. Wi-Fi, Chromecast and Airplay are available. There are few sound settings that you can use to tweak the audio.

  • Plug and play

AUDIO QUALITY ( TESTED )

Dialogue & Vocal Accuracy Frequency deviation from target is less than standard error (3.4 dB ); which means soundbar is very good to reproduce dialog and instrumental music
Bass Accuracy ( for music, film scores, movies, and games) Soundbar 's Low-Frequency-Extension is less than 35 Hz. Which means It can reproduce the deep thump and rumble in the low-bass accurately.
3- Dimensional Sound Accuracy ( Sound Stage) audio seems to be coming from a more accurate pinpoint location
Total Harmonic Distortion ( Center Channel ) It has dedicated center channel speaker and Total Harmonic Distortion of center channel @80dB is less than standard value(>0.7). So soundbar produce more clear and accurate audio of the dialogue in movies.
Surround Sound Imaging ( Rear Channel ) No dedicated or alternative channel for surround content. So it downmixes surround content to stereo.
Streo Dynamics ( Loudness ): Dynamic Range Compression @ Max Volume is little bit more than standard deviation (<2 dB) and maximum valume is over 92 dB SPL
Audio & Video Latency Here no visible latency via ARC (50 ms) and Optical (35 ms) but visuals difference may found via Full HDMI Input (N/A).
