Chills

These are remarkable. They are a fine pieces of craftsmanship. I have an optical input from a Node X. These genuinely gave me chills. Worth every penny. Great job.

Slicked up to The Nines

Best speakers I've ever heard. Only used for music so far, but the frequency response, eq options (in the app), and just the level of detail at high volumes is insane. Other great systems that break up under extreme passages of music can't come close to these dawgs. Had some friends over and all we did all night was listen to these. I wake up and just crank em. These rule.

Very good speakers for the money

They sound very good. To be clear, they are amazing but very nice for what they are. I also own The One Klipsch speaker and they are similar but the Nines are just louder. I hooked up a B&W subwoofer which helps a bit. But you will not be disapointed. Plus I am saving a bunch of space on a stereo receiver and that is a big plus. I recommend.

Whoop, The Nines!

Love the Nines! It does everything a receiver does and more. The sound is amazing, I added a sub which compliments the Nines. The remote is awful and needs work. The app for the phone is great and gets 5 stars.

The Nines, Excellent powered speakers!

Setup - The Nines connected via HDMI ARC to a smart TV with a ROKU 4K stick. These speakers are used in my main TV/Living room. For watching TV they are good but they really shine when used for music. I use Amazon Music as my main music source and I now find myself listening to my favorite music more than watching TV because The Nines sound so good. The Dynamic Bass EQ feature is so effective that using subwoofer in my room with these would be overkill. I would recommend these to my friends and family. Pro's - Great sound, Beautiful speakers, Easy to setup, No sub needed, Remote & app included, Many cables included, Your TV/Streamer remote can control volume/power via HDMI ARC, Dynamic Bass & Night Mode work great, Makes me want to listen to more music :). Minuses - The included remote: its IR (infrared) and needs to pointed directly at the main speaker which has a rather small IR detector on it next to the woofer. This makes the remote hard to use if sitting off axis or at a distance. I wish the remote was RF (radio frequency) controlled which works through walls. The app: it's good but could be better. App needs an easier to use volume control (+ and - buttons to tap would be nice), a balance control and more bands of EQ. Makes me want to listen to more music then I should :).

The ones/NINES to own over many great speakers!

The Nines came along to my residency and they are Quality and a Superb sound on a 2 channel configuration to a restrict level. Replacing a Receiver is the challenge, connectivity is the issue here. But, there is no question Nines will fill up my leaving entertainment room with Joy. I have a full Klipsch surround system 5.1.4 and soundS pristine! calibrated to the max with space measurements. I feel this is my best ever Klipsch System formed at my house for the last 30 years. I am an Audio enthusiast that enjoys good music. I have the Fives in my bedroom and I know they capabilities. The Nines are a great product and- they are an enjoyment to be near. I Can'T wait to see the Nine Plus to arrive with more connections to play with.

The Nines

Great system! Super easy to install, I use them for my garage gym and they are plenty loud for those tough sets.

Great, but!

Speakers sound wonderful and couldn't be happier. Where my issue lies is with the loud pop that happens when I turn the speakers off and the run around I am getting from product support. I have done everything they have asked for me to try, but still the same issue. Feel that I am just getting the run around and no real help.

I love it

Great clear sound and fun to play with. I have to say it's worth buying instead of a sound bar. You don't need a sub unless you want super bass. It's enough bass for me. Some who party with their record players may need sub

The Nines - Black

They pack a punch so be ready for it the only problem is they're not too clear on the speaker stands that go with them. and I found out the hard way.

Klipsch Heritage at a Fraction of The Price

The sound stage is phenomenal, with exceptional detail, and clarity that you would expect from speakers costing two or three times this much! But it's not just the sound, it's the incredible build quality. When you first pick these up, you can feel how solid they are, they feel like high end, Klipsch speakers. The nines will make even the most discriminating audio file, stand up and take notice. If you buy these speakers, you will not be disappointed!

Worth 2300

Fantastic! The app is a bit rough, but it is simple and effective. I added a 10" sub and the 3 work seamlessly with the tv remote. I hooked up via HDMI arc. Bluetooth attempts to take over sometimes, but the Hdmiarc is a better signal.

The Nines!!!

Thank you Klipsch for making the Nines such an incredible speaker!! I love the depth of the base and the overall clarity of the speaker at any volume. They are well worth the price!!!

Powerful Powered Speakers

Impressive speakers! These sound good with music and movies. Deep impactful bass not bloated. Highs are clear and detailed. Setup is a no-brainer. I have them hooked up through hdmi to tv and spdif to a Wiim Pro. Very happy with my purchase. I also bought the Klipsch 24 inch stands which are sturdy and fit The Nines perfectly. The Nines aren't cheap but if you don't want to go down the rabbit hole of choosing components they are perfect.
