My opinion should probably be taken with a grain of salt because I'm naturally biased. But I'll just say that while I like Klipsch speakers very much, it was there acoustic warts that drove me to build loudspeakers in the first place. I used some of the same ideas, the things I liked about Klipsch, and disregarded the things I thought were outdated or overlooked. The end result, I believe, is a line of loudspeakers that is much better than similar offerings from Klipsch. Pi Speakers use better parts, have been designed with more attention to detail, and make better sound.
