Hi, I also say go for it!
I have a pair that I enjoy, but with a room full of overstuffed furniture and carpeting, I found the best presentation to be found by elevating them by about 6 inches from the floor.
I got to chat with someone at Klipsch via the Klipsch forums (a nice group) and he mentioned that Klipsh had originally intended them as almost a PA sort of speaker (listened to while it was at proscenium level), and they ended up imaging best when listened to on the tweeter level, or even with the tweeter above ear level.
At my house, with them on the floor, the sound was slightly lifeless; but when I raised them they gained much in terms of subjective high frequency extension and "speed."
The midrange stayed about the same, imaging was quite "open" and airy. The bass perhaps gained a little speed, but I didn't really notice a loss of what bass it seemed to have.
So, get them, for sure, but if they don't impress you, cut up some 2X6's with an "X" brace from corner to corner and try that. It's a great 10 dollar tweak!
Best wishes.
