Leader of the Icon V pack
Treat your ears to iconic sound. Klipsch's Icon V series presents its flagship floorstanding model: the VF-36. Powerful, efficient, and, of course, precise, the Icon VF-36 delivers the highest output and lowest distortion in its class. Using three 6.5" fiber-composite cone woofers, the floorstanding speaker reproduces sound as low as 36Hz (with a low frequency extension of 33Hz). There's enough power pumping out the low notes that you could, if you're so inclined, opt not to add a subwoofer to your system. Then, a new wide dispersion Tractrix Horn-loaded tweeter with XT technology provides high-range sound reproduction up to 23kHz. This proprietary design allows the VF 36 to diffuse a smooth, enveloping 90-degree by 90-degree sound pattern from its extremely thin extrusion enclosure. As with all Klipsch horn-loaded technology, this version also produces more output using less energy and delivers the company's signature dynamic sound. With all these drivers, it's important to make sure the sound flows smoothly between low and high frequencies, so Klipsch uses high-definition, precision-voiced crossovers for accurate transfer. Topping it all off, the VF36 enclosure is slim and stylish. What might be most compelling, though, is that you won't find a speaker of the same quality at this price.

I bought a pair of these from Vanns for use in the rear in a 5.1 surround set-up. My room makes wall-mounts impossible and a previous set of smaller speakers on speaker stands kept getting knocked over by our two young cats. The VF-36 speakers stand tall enough to work well in the back, the tweeter is above our heads when watching on the sofa. I had read some criticism about the bass response in this model, so I also added a small powered subwoofer with a built-in crossover in back. Two weeks of use later, I am very impressed at the improvement in sound, and how well the voice of these speakers pairs with the top of the line 12 year Klipsch speakers I use for the front left, right, and center. Great value and as always Vanns service and delivery speed is the gold standard.

Great speakers at the price I paid! Have them as front speakers in a home theater paired with Polk towers in rear. Excellent sound after they broke in...about 30 hrs of play. Power comes from a Yamaha 7.1 with 110 watts per channel. These speakers are rated at 150w nom and really come alive when powered up. Would recomend them for most people, but have enough power for them. Base is ok at low power, but I have a Klipsch 10In sub with 260w nom to help out till their cranked up. I listern to alot of music at a moderate volume and watch alot of movies. So far geat addition untill I can afford a set of Heresey II and move these to the rear.

We use these speakers as front speakers in our home theater system. They produce excellent sound and are very attractive. I love the slim design and though they are taller than expected, they do not take up a lot of space. For the price, they cannot be beat.

I purchased these speakers with some hesitation after reading a couple of middle of the road reviews in the trade magazines. After a quick break in I listened critically to them and I was really pleased. They are somewhat bright, but after adjusting the tone a little bit they sounded great to my ears. I only use them to listen to music through a 60 watt receiver coupled with a rather cheap subwoofer and they sound great. I currently have some mirage , energy, and dane acoustics speakers and these really are on par with all of them. Great buy on sale!

This is not a commonly reviewed speaker in the Klipsch line-up due to the popularity of the Reference Series and Heritage line. The SQ, clarity and fullness of the speaker is amazing. The horn design, XT tractix gives excellent off axis dispersion for smoother highs compared to the traditional horn design. The front firing port makes for easy room placement compared to rear ported speakers. This speaker has 3 woofers that are fast in their respone to give deep and dynamic bass for music or HT. The speaker is slim and sleek with a nice black wood veneer finish, just for good looks! I am impressed with the overall quality of this speaker and consider it a hidden gem in the Klipsch line-up. I like this speaker so much that I also purchased the VF 35 speaker from Vanns. One last thing, I ordered the VF 36 on a Thursday and they were delivered the next day with the free shipping option!

The Icon V series is incredible. I had a system with the VF 35s as front speakers now the VF 36s are the front speakers in my 9.1 setup. Man do they thump! Well balanced from the highs to the bass and a nice midrange. Now the flagship of the V series takes front stage in my home. I compared these to the Reference and Synergy line and felt at this price, this is the better dollar for dollar purchase. I ordered the speakers on Thursday and got them on Friday. Vanns did a great job with my order from start to finish.
