Continuing with the rockin' street drummer scene "Birdman" Blu-ray, the Klipsch system inhibited the drums' impact while the Elac/Onkyo system unleashed it. Surround envelopment, while acceptable on the Klipsch system, was surpassed by the more spacious sounding wired system.
Issues with surround weren't a concern when we listened to stereo music, however. The sound of Klipsch's towers and subwoofer was easy on the ears and detail resolution was fine.
Rocking out first with Keith Richards "Talk is Cheap" solo album, the Klipsch kicked butt, bass impact was very decent, and cranking up the volume only increased our respect for the towers. Switching over to the Elac towers, however, the music rocked even harder, and bass impact jumped a notch or two.
Continuing with Frank Sinatra's "Only the Lonely" album, the wired Elac towers produced a deeper, more three-dimensional soundstage, but Sinatra's vocals were equally good over both towers.
