Question Sony SSCS5 vs Klipsch R-41PM ?

For pure music listening I would choose the Sonys.
For home theater I would choose the Klipsch for the reason stated above. The horns are a little bright (klipsch reference sound) and vocals come through better with movies with lots of effects.
Listen for yourself if you can.
 
Which speaker system is better for its price, Sony SSCS5 or Klipsch R-41PM ?
You're comparing apples and oranges. One is a passive speaker system that depends on being connected to a receiver and the quality and settings of that receiver; the other is a powered speaker that contains its own amplifier and does not need and is not affected by the quality of a receiver.
 
As stated above.
For pure music listening, I myself would chose the Sony's with a good amp.
They have a very good sound and almost flat sound responce.
The Klipsch are good sounding but the high end from about 2000hz up is about 3 db higher than the rest of the sound level.
So for me the Klipsch are too "Bright" for comfortable music listening. But make great home theater speakers that keep vocals clear and sharp when lots of effects are happening.

So if music is your main objective get the Sony set with a good amp.
If watching movies/youtube etc....Get the Klipsch.
