Klipsch Introduces a High-Resolution Alternative to Sound Bars with The Fives Powered Monitors

The Fives are the first powered monitors to feature HDMI-ARC to connect directly to a TV, producing high fidelity sound from dedicated right and left speakers. The result is a big, bold sound stage, and a better listening experience than the common sound bar. Made with luxury materials such as real wood veneer and tactile switches and knobs, Klipsch Heritage Wireless speakers The Fives blend the acoustics and classic design legacy of Paul W. Klipsch with the latest technologies available today.

With custom-designed built-in amplifiers, Klipsch Heritage Wireless speakers The Fives deliver room-filling sound while eliminating the need for an audio/video receiver. They are extremely versatile, easy to set-up and use, and connect to virtually everything. In addition to HDMI-ARC, the Fives feature an integrated phono pre-amp, Bluetooth® wireless technology, digital optical, analog RCA and USB inputs. A subwoofer output is also included.

The Fives incorporate award-winning, proprietary Klipsch Reference acoustic horn-loaded technology and tuning to deliver loud and precise audio with enhanced bass and low distortion. Bulit-in dynamic bass equalization matches the ear’s ability to hear lower frequencies, delivering powerful bass at any volume. The Fives also feature 192kHz/24-bit decoding for flawless reproduction of high-resolution audio tracks.

With planned availability this spring, the free Klipsch Connect App allows users to, receive firmware upgrades, digital quick-start guide, and much more.

Klipsch Heritage Wireless speakers The Fives come in matte black or walnut real wood veneer finishes with textured woven grilles. They are available now through Audio Advice, Klipsch.com and other authorized retailers for $799 per pair (US MSRP).
