Klipsch - Flexus CORE 210

I enjoy the Klipsch 210 bar / sub combo. Sounds great

I got the Klipsch 210 brand new from Adorama for $430 a few months ago. Absolutely love it

Adorama lowered the price to $400 about 3 weeks after the price I got it for, so I’d imagine you’ll see it pop up again with the upcoming holidays. Plus Adorama is a legit Klipsch dealer for warranty purposes. I doubt Amazon is, but I could be wrong.

Need help deciding on a new setup. Decided to move on from my LG SNC75. I'm trying to decide between the Klipsch Flexxus 21O w/sub for $499 or either the Beam 2 at $349 or Bose Smart Soundbar at $399 and adding either the Sonos Mini Sub or Bose 500 Bass Module, both at $350. I've researched and watched several comparison videos but no consistent answer. So far the Beam is at the bottom due to no upward firing speakers. Any advice? \*\* Also considering the LG S80TR but I have had a few LG bars and none have ever impressed. Thanks for the feedback everyone. I went with the Klipsch 210 system. If it disappoints I have 60 days to return it.

As an owner of the Flexus Core 200 + sub 100. I think the Core 300 will be worth the money. But definitely get the Sub 200 with it. The sub 100 is a beast too, but I don't think it'll be quite enough for the 300. The 300 looks like a whole different beast compared to the 200. But I absolutely love my Core 200 & think it's worth every penny. I sold my Sonos Arc, Era 100's & Sub Mini for this setup & I have absolutely no regrets.

Sounds like you're in the same boat as me as far as the Flexus vs Ambeo. Flexus to me is the better deal, but the Sennheiser Ambeo Plus is like the Rolls Royce of soundbars to me. It sounds like it's on an entirely different level than anything I've ever heard. But the Flexus is absolutely amazing for the price. I went to my Core 200 + Sub 100 from my Sonos Arc, Sub Mini, & 2 Era 100's. Even tho I went to a cheaper system I felt I actually upgraded. If I upgrade again, it's definitely between the Flexus Core 300 & the Ambeo Plus. Real toss up for me between the 2. Glad you're happy, I've been recommending this Flexus system to literally everyone 😂

The entire Cinema series is terrible. Sound-wise they're alright but reliability they're all terrible. I first had the Cinema 400 & eventually got the Cinema 600. The Cinema 400 started acting up like not turning on immediately. I sold it, got the 600 & Eventually the 600 started doing the same thing. And I actually had 2 of the 600's fully died on me. You'd see the power light indication just flickering & shit. And apparently it was the same story for the Cinema 800 & 1200 too. But the Flexus system really seems like a step up. The app connection feels seamless. I think the Flexus system is a huge step forward with having Onkyo (a huge AV name) taking care of the internal electronics.

Flexus Core 200 by LITERAL MILES!!! I have no experience with the apple home pod. Had the Q600C briefly, bar sounds alright but the subwoofer sounds like shit. Had the JBL Bar 500 & it was just a sloppy system all around, crappy subwoofer & distorted bar. & The Beam 2 is eh. Quite weak & very dull sounding. If I can comfortably listen to a movie at 60%+ volume, that sucks in my book. Hell I even had it at 100% in my bedroom before & I was just like "that's all this things got???" I also thought the Arc was too soft for me as well. The Core 200 bar by itself is just fantastic! 2 4" subwoofers that really hit hard. It's such a full sounding bar it's amazing! Dialogue enhancement works pretty well too if needed, + a 3 band bass mid & treble equalizer. Choice of either the Sub 100 or Sub 200 (10" or 12") & you can run 2 subs regardless of which sub you buy, unlike Sonos where you can't run 2 sub minis, only 2 full size subwoofers. I sold my Arc, Era 100's & sub mini for my Core 200 + Sub 100 & I don't regret it at all. The soundstage is impressively wide sounding considering the lack of side firing drivers. I've had scenes in movies where it sounds like there's something at the side of my room, beyond the soundbar!

I'd pick the Klipsch setup. That's my exact setup and it's an awesome system. Really fills my room quite well. Unless you can find a Samsung Q800D, then I'd grab that over the Klipsch. But I wouldn't buy the Q800F as I think it's a small downgrade from the Q800D due to the subwoofer. That new subwoofer is the same Sub as the S800's slim soundbar series subwoofer. I've personally had both the S800B and the Q800B and the older Q800B single 8" subwoofer is significantly better than the 6.5" + 8" PR design. I'll never understand why they did this but I can only assume it's to put a little bit more distance in the difference between the Q800's & Q900's considering they both used to have the same subwoofer design (or extremely similar). But I definitely think they could've come up with something better than what they made

Awesome soundbar setup. I have that exact setup. I've had many different soundbars and always had at least one complaint about every single one, but this is the first one I really don't have any real complaints with. I wish it had a center channel adjustment but I really wouldn't consider that a "complaint" of mine cause I get around it by adjusting the EQ & dialogue enhancements. And for the $430 price you found, that's a fucking steal!!!!

Is the older friend tech savvy? If not, I'd stay away from the Sonos app. I'm not a fan of it at all. Plus, the Sonos Beam 2 without a sub will be completely underwhelming in a large room. And adding the Sonos mini sub itself is $500, the Gen 3 sub at $600 or the Gen 4 sub at $900. My 3 recommendations for the $500-$600 price point with a subwoofer are: * (1) JBL 500MK2-5.1 (currently at $550) https://us.amazon.com/JBL-500MK2-5-1-MultiBeamTM-Calibration-Assistant-Enabled/dp/B0FHBVS6GC * (2) Klipsch Flexus w/ 10" sub ($599) https://us.amazon.com/Klipsch-Flexus-Sound-System-Subwoofer/dp/B0D1SKD9CJ/ * (3) Samsung Q800F (this is an open-box option for $514) https://us.amazon.com/Samsung-Subwoofer-Q-Symphony-Integration-HW-Q800F/dp/B0DY1XXYT7/ I actually have the Samsung Q800F but if you like something with more bass I would choose the JBL or Klipsch option because they both come with a 10" subwoofer, vs the Samsung's smaller 6.5" subwoofer.. i'm not impressed with it at all as it's too small a sub for the system. All 3 soundbars offer a wireless subwoofer that can be placed anywhere in the room.

I also have the flexus core 200, only the soundbar and it sounds really amazing. Even without the sub 100, movies and series sound really good. The soundbar on is own already has enough bass for me. I'm thinking of buying the surr 100 for a complete surround setup, 5.1.2 channel.

I got the flexus 210 from bestbust for 599. Seen them on sale for same price recently. I got the surr 100s for 200. I’ve been blown away by it so far and the sub hits hard when you put it in the right spot. It’s a big upgrade from an older 5.1.2 Vizio model

Sonos arc or flexus core 200. I was in the same boat wanting just a sound bar and went with the beam gen 2. Returned it after a week, vocals are great and direct, but lacks depth, satisfaction. Made me appreciate bass more after that. Sonos arc @$600 is better then the core 200 @$400-$500. If you want to add a sub down the road, Sonos subs are expensive. The core will allow you to add 3rd party subs.

I received mine a week ago and it is really good!! I read very good reviews but hearing it in person is just amazing! For the price is unbeatable!

This man knows what he's talking about, I'm in love with my core 200 💪.

With the q930 you get physical surrounds and a seperate subwoofer unit, this just smokes arc ultra on its own or sony bar 8 or flexus core 200. If you were planning on adding more surrounds etc on the others then you could have an actual comparison. But if you just buy a bar and compare it to the full kit of the q930D, the Q930D just smokes them

IMO if you want a soundbar-only setup, nothing beats the Flexus core 200, like even without a sub there's somehow decent bass on it. I nabbed one for $200 from Marketplace and I couldn't be happier.

Flexus core 200. Great bass response and crystal audio

I have as well. The thing gets really really loud which is impressive. Think the dialogue is good but could be better. For the price it’s a great deal for sure. Bought a wired sub off Facebook too to hook into it which is fun.

Klipsch flexus core with a sub. Fantastic value with ability to add surround if you’d like down the road

Ignore looks, prioritize audio Quality. Most people recommend here would Samsung Q990D. I personally own an older model from Samsung and a new Klipsch Flexus Core. I like the sound of the Samsung better than the Klipsch. Bose, LG and JBL are recognized brands, but I haven't seen many people recommend them.

Have you looked at the new Klipsch Flexus system? I have had Klipsch products for over 10 years and have always been great!

See this is just what I was talking about.. He was right... with the Cinema line they did have a issue.. If you notice the Flexus now has Onkyo making the power components/electrical stuff.. IMO this was a partnership because they realized they were not doing a great job of doing it themselves. So while Klipsch did have a bad track record with the Cinema series.. the new Flexus series is Klipsch/Onkyo hopefully eliminating heir issues.. One nice thing about the way some of these places do it is they are piecemeal systems(in a good way) Some systems I believe like the Samsungs I believer those come as a all in 1 type deal you get the bar, surrounds, and sub... so if the bar goes bad.. youre kinda stuck getting a whole new system unless you find someone selling one separately. I like the makers who do their stuff in both packages of the bar/sub/surrounds but also do them completely separately. This way if 1 part breaks.. you but that 1 part and replace it not have to buy a entire new system.. Klipsch dropped the ball first time around packaging it all together in the Cinema series. It was all in one nothing sold separate. This time the Flexus is all separates.. and even cooler there is a 100/200/300 line you can mix and match.. for instance you could have a $350 Flexus 200 bar with the upgraded Flexus 300 surrounds and sub(s) The other cool thing about Klipsch Flexus is you can use your own Subwoofer.. it doesnt have to be theirs like 99.7% of these systems are set up for.. If I end up with the Flexus I will just use my Atlantic Technology THX Subwoofer. get surrounds later this spring/summer.

no they are not but everything in the Flexus line is so you could have a 100 bar and 300 sub and surrounds if you wanted.

I also have a wired sub its a Atlantic Technology THX sub thats what I plan to use if I get the Flexus which is seeming more likely at the price point and considering its sound vs more expensive bars.(from what ive seen it punches sonically well above its weight.. I couldnt care less if it doesnt have some funky extra HDMI ports(no need) or doesnt have alexa or some other crap built into it either.. I care how it SOUNDS lol.

I got it for $299 with the coupon on Digbuy I got it yesterday tested it out a bit today.. hooked right up to my Atlantic Technology sub and seems great so far. relatively easy set up too that was nice.

I’d try a Klipsch flexus core they have built in subs that actually work. And you can upgrade. Wired sub out so you can use any wired sub

I wouldn't exactly call it an upgrade going to a sound bar from a 5.1 and you won't get a proper Atmos experience with up firing speakers like in a soundbar, it won't be comparable but better than nothing. A proper Atmos setup would need to come from above. That said, the Klipsch flexus system is pretty sweet And I've been happy with it

It seemed helpful enough, but directing you towards soundbars was probably the right call. While you won't get the same sound as discrete channels, soundbars are still pretty good options. I'm partial to the Klipsch Flexus
