Klipsch The Fives review: Soundbar killers

 

The soundbar was born as an easy plug-and-play solution to offer good audio quality in a simple device that didn't ask you to pick up a degree in audio design from the local community college. Soundbars have since come to dominate home theater audio,...

Powerful, balanced, true stereo sound Excellent multimedia audio experience Stellar phantom center channel Beautiful design Multiple connection options

May not fit in every home theater setup

The Fives are an audiophile’s dream packed in a soundbar killer. Not only will they outperform a single soundbar solution, but they’ll give multi-speaker soundbar systems a run for their money. If you care about this quality of your home theater sound,...

Klipsch The Fives Review

 

It's not often that we review powered bookshelf speakers these days, and it's even rarer when they cost $799. But we test a fair number of soundbars in this price range, and with The Fives, Klipsch aims to provide a hearty, left/right channel...

Excellent sound signature with crisp, detailed highs and round, rich bass depth Handsome design, with removable tweed grilles Lots of connectivity options, including Bluetooth, HDMI, Optical, and an input for turntables 192kHz/24-bit decoding from USB...

Expensive No app or EQ support (yet)

The Fives from Klipsch look and sound fantastic, with far more connectivity options than your standard pair of bookshelf speakers.

Appearance and Cork Base ; Compact Size ; Full Range Sound ; Ease of Operation

I can highly recommend the Klipsch Fives for any listening environment in-home or office. The Fives have huge reserves of performance and sound.

Klipsch The Fives review: These Bluetooth bookshelf speakers deliver smooth, refined sound

 

Ever since 1946, when Paul Klipsch began selling his patented Klipschorn speakers, the company that bears his name has been inextricably linked with horn-based designs. As he discovered a decade earlier while comparing horn-loaded and cone-based...

Smooth, refined, sophisticated sound Extensive connection options Extremely well built

Bass is slightly overemphasized, sometimes a bit bloated Mids and highs are often a tad recessed or even slightly veiled LED indicators are hard to see if you're directly in front of the speakers

The Fives present a smooth, refined sound that's a bit bass-heavy with slightly recessed mids and highs.

Klipsch The Fives Powered Speaker System Review

 

I'm all about simplicity so I welcomed The Fives with open arms. A follow-up to The Sixes Klipsch introduced a couple years ago, the new speakers are smaller and take connectivity to the next level with the addition of an ARC (audio return...

Versatile Easy to set up Solid construction Good sound with powerful bass

No tone controls

The Fives accommodate a variety of audio setups without the need for an outboard amp or receiver and deliver pleasing sound with rich, powerful bass.

Klipsch The Fives

 

Expensive and versatile, the Klipsch Fives offer an expressive sound – although they aren't the most revealing or nuanced of listens

Rich, inviting, powerful sound ; Hi-res audio support ; Nice aesthetics ; Versatile connectivity

Pricey ; Not the most incisive performance

Expensive and versatile in similar amounts, these Klipsch wireless speakers offer a rich and expressive-sounding experience – although they lack a degree of nuance and subtlety. Since they first launched, other similarly specced and cheaper options...

Klipsch The Fives review

 

A one-stop shop for home audio

Punchy presentation ; Good features set ; Versatile nature

Uneven tonality ; Not the most organised presentation

The Fives offer sonic performance to match their lengthy feature list, if not exactly their ambitious moniker

Klipsch The Fives

 

Part of Klipsch's Heritage Wireless series, The Fives sets out to give a tiny taste of what it's like to own a grown-up Klipsch without having to drop £12,000 on the La Scala AL5.
