Klipsch The Sevens Heritage Inspired (Pair) Powered Speakers - Walnut

Purchased another popular powered speaker with a three initial name and higher price tag. The wife who has exceptional critical listening skills laughed and commented they sounded like our first generation Sonos. I completely agreed. The sound was thin, tinny with no bass at all. They were quickly boxed up and sent back. No slight against the Sonos, it’s great for its size and price but these were 7x the price! No Bueno The Sevens went on sale for Black Friday and I ordered a pair immediately. I’m a big fan of Klipsch since I first heard a pair of Klipschhorns as a teenager and have a pair of vintage Forte’s in the basement on our two channel stereo and surround system. We wanted something better than the Sonos in the upstairs living room that didn’t take up too much space. These fit the bill although not small by any means and not light either, these are real speakers not toys! They were well packaged and extremely easy to set up. I added a WiiM mini for streaming via the optical input. Like any speaker they take a little time to break in, but immediately they filled the medium size living room with full, rich, alive sound. Highs are high without being harsh, vocals and mids are crisp and lifelike and more than enough bass without a sub for us as they mostly provide background music. Maybe if you like bass heavy music and want a bit more a sub would work but try them first. The finish is beautiful and matches out mid century house. Might not work if you like the modern plastic vacuum sweeper look of modern designs but that’s up for you to decide. I didn’t try any of the other brands at this price point and at the sale price honestly there wasn’t anything close to even look at. Pros: Sound Looks Easy setup Sound Cons: No built in streamer (although I prefer being able to sync WiiM’s across three different systems in the house) Price at retail (although pound for pound they are still a deal. Wait for sales) Looks may not blend well in modern homes I wish the grill fabric was darker to match the heritage full size models.

Funcionaron a la perfección, pero después de un poco más de un año y medio fallaron, simplemente dejaron de "sonar", las bocinas prenden y se pueden seleccionar los Inputs, sin embargo no se emite ningún sonido. El equipo de Soporte de Klipsch te ayuda a ejecutar un par de procesos de reinicio y actualización de Firmware, pero no soluciona el problema. El siguiente paso es contactar a un Dealer Local... en el caso de México hay solo dos Dealers, de los cuales uno es Best Buy el cual ya no existe en México.... Lamentablemente no hay nada que hacer y nadie se hace responsable, he perdido más de $25,000 pesos en este equipo y no hay forma de hacer nada. Tengo otros productos de la marca y funcionan perfectamente, pero este modelo NO LES RECOMIENDO COMPRARLO, es mucho arriesgarse a que les suceda lo mismo que a mi. En foros encontré que es un error común y nadie ha podido solucionarlo, al parecer también sucede en los modelos The Nines y The Fives.

I got these in Sept with daily usage. Primarily TVs and movies with music (streaming and vinyl). Seriously incredible speakers. Everyone is impressed with the sound that comes out of these. We do not need a sub. Plenty of bass. I like these two speakers better than my entry level full surround set up in the basement. Can't say enough about these. They also look amazing.

Well... These were my all-time favorite speakers I had ever owned, and by a wide margin. Sound was absolutely incredible, dare I even say perfect. But, unfortunately, just like many other reviews I've been noticing as of recent, these speakers were poorly designed using extremely low quality components and they have a tendency to die. That's just what happened to me today... Several weeks ago I noticed a static-laced "clicking" sound that would go on for about ten seconds before the system started up. As the days went on, it would go on for longer and longer. Eventually it would take anywhere from 5 - 10 minutes just for the system to start up and get any audio output from it whatsoever. Then came today... Cables were replaced, various inputs tested, app updates, etc. and nada, nothing, DOA... Three hours of trouble-shooting and it's safe to say they just completely gave up the ghost. And, most conveniently, being that I'm out of warranty, they basically told me I'm SOL and offered to SELL me a replacement amplifier board. Yeah, no thanks. I'm extremely disgusted at the moment and will never, ever, under any circumstance buy another Klipsch product for the rest of my life, passive, active, whatever. I'm done with Klipsch. It's clearly no longer the great American company that it once was, but then again, what really even is still in this day and age? Look elsewhere for quality audio products, and (as much as I loved and had a strong preference for active systems) buy passive speakers and separates, it will serve you better in the long haul.

Sound quality is excellent and everything works perfectly. However, the volume knob is slightly misaligned and touches the side a bit — it works fine, but the tactile feel isn’t 100% perfect. Bought as Open Box – Like New, so this is probably one of those small imperfections. Overall great performance, just not flawless in build details.
