It was a gift to my brother. He says there are no cable or cords to connect it.

Great imaging and clarity. A bit heavy on bass but not excessive -was able to "tune" with the level controls.

Hearing things I never heard before! Awesome sound and clarity…..

Fast customer service. Mounted the speakers under the roof overhang of sun room facing my pool.sound fills the pool deck area, sound great, and have great power. Would buy again

Safe and Sound was right this table is beautiful once out of the box

It just what I expected, I'm just enjoying all the sounds from the "Music "

Thank you Safe and Sound for the attention to detail with my order! My speàkers were securely packaged for shipping and arrived in perfect condition! Outstanding service!

These are my favorite Klipsch bookshelf speakers, this is my third pair to purchase

The power conditioner is working great and i am very happy with it.

Great recommendation. Great equipment.

I love being able to give my Forte IVs a completely different vintage look by easily swapping my grill sets out.

Showed up literally the next day, and would have never known that it was an open box. This is the 2nd time I have purchased a large ticket item from them and the 2nd time they have absolutely impressed.

Fantastic!! They sound great!!

Well built and generally sound design. Two flaws (one apparent and one potential); transport appears clunky and flimsy and although it shows in its photos having power meters, there are no obvious ways to access that feature as there is no manual and the online manual doesn’t discuss it. Lastly, I seem to keep having drop outs with Apple Music streaming. Not sure if it is the Apple App, the wifi or BT reception.

Significant step up from the 2M Blue. Very happy with this purchase.

Actually heavier than it looks, which suggests some real components inside. Setup was super easy. The sound through my Rotel RC10670 and RB1070 feeding B&W 805 S speakers and HSU subwoofer is great. Dead silent when there’s no music. VeryAccurate sound.

Very impressive and easy to use. Great for streaming music!

The cables are settling in and sounding great.
By chance do you have a Martin Logan Stage X inventory or know where I can get one?

sounds great - color isn't excactly what I saw online

Easy to use; quiet operation; music quality very good for the price.

the cable is what it states it is big and heavy and flows a lot of power needed

Great streaning amp. I love that it looks like my old Yamaha CA-810 amp. However, all of the new tech and connections make the R-N2000A a more than worthy successor.
