Klipsch R-625FA Floorstanding Speaker vs Cerwin-Vega XLS-28

The Klipsch R-625FA Floorstanding Speaker is a great Tower Speaker for its $334 asking price.

The Cerwin-Vega XLS-28, however, while a reasonable product for $429, doesn't stack up against its competitors quite as well. If you're considering Tower Speakers in the $410 range, you might want to check out some better options.

Popular Mechanics, a review site with a history of doing objective hands-on testing, has great things to say about the Klipsch R-625FA Floorstanding Speaker. In fact, it's "Best for Dolby Atmos" in its "The 8 Best Tower Speakers For Ultimate Entertainment" roundup, which points toward it being a good Tower Speaker.

Taking a look at the Cerwin-Vega XLS-28, we found that it hasn't managed to perform well enough to earn a spot in any Tower Speaker roundups done by sources that conduct their own, high-quality, hands-on testing. That alone makes it difficult to recommend.
