Onix X-LS users..do you consider the Klipsch RB-61 a step up from the X-LS or equal?

I love the Klipsch looks and the frequency range is very good at least on paper and since I can get a pair for the same money as the X-LS I wanted to ask if this will be consider a step up in sound quality or just spending more money due to a bigger name?

Regards

Does not seem likely many have compared these two speakers. They look to me like they would be comparable, but of course would sound different. I think one's personal preference as to how they sound would be a more likely determining factor than "sound quality", however that may be defined.


Front ported speakers are recommended if needing to place them very near, far away from or flush to a wall. Since the x-ls speakers are rear ported, they would be best placed an optimal distance from a wall, usually between 1 or 2 feet.
I got my Insignias about 16" from the side and 20" from the back wall (measuring from the center of the speaker) ...will that be enough for a rear ported?
