Klipsch The FIVES Powered Bookshelf Speakers - Pair (Matte Black)

Simple, versatile, and amazing to listen to. I bought these for my hone office, after seeing a review of them on YouTube (Andrew Robinson). I was so impressed that I went out and replaced my living room setup with Heresy IV, and had to buy another set of the Fives for a buddy of mine as a gift. It's crazy but I think I prefer the Fives to my living room setup. I only wish Klipsch would make “the Eights” or hell, “the Twelves” Ha!

OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE!! I am impressed beyond words, I got rid of my Samsung surround sound system because I heard a lot about the FIVES! Death of the sound bar!!! I will NOT go back. Also NO Subwoofer required. Trust me if you are on the fence, don't be! The FIVES delivers on it's promise to WOW you upon arrival.

Awesome sound, and perfect for space with TV mounted on the wall. Didn't work with the TV at first, but after installing the latest firmware update (5.8.0 as of July) with a usb stick it works great, and now has 3 levels of bass that you can adjust to (dynamic bass, flat, bass cut)! Bass cut mode is great b/c we have to have speakers close to the wall, but fun to have the other bass settings as well. See this thread for more info: https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/topic/196408-the-fives-usb-drivers-bass-cut-mode-in-new-software-575/page/2/ And for firmware update: https://www.klipsch.com/firmware?product=115490&serial= Also sounds like there should be EQ adjustment capability added to the Klipsch Connect app soon…

beautiful craftmanship, easy hook-up, great sound! I'm using it with a smaller subwoofer, and that, too connected easily, and even without the sub, the bass is surprisingly full. working 2 jobs right now, so not a lot of down time, but I can't wait until I can crank it up and see how many neighbors I can annoy

Excellent speakers, sounds organic, clear and detailed. Perfect to stream audio or to connect to your turntable with the analog terminals it sounds bold and you fills like in a recording studio or small concert. Excellent materials, you can feel the wood texture and the real wood smells so good. I'm extremely happy with this monitors.

Fantastic! I have The Sixes and a 12'' sub which I love. I splurged on The Fives mostly for music and tv in a different room. Amazing sound from such a small package! I doubt I'll need a subwoofer, just as they advertise. I'm impressed so far.

Great sounding speakers and they are look beautiful on the entertainment center. The bluetooth connection can be effected by other household items (ie vaccum and microwave) but other than that they are great. The sound is unbelievable.

The advice to connect with a subwoofer is sound - makes a big difference! The set up instructions aren't real clear - had I not read reviews on neutral sites, it may have even been confusing. HOWEVER - They SOUND FANTASTIC

A bit lacking in the mids. Bass is over zealous, I've had to modify EQ to my liking. Great off the shelf solution, would recommend to others. Sound full at low volume

Out of the box, 3 stars. Maybe I need to work on configurations, but right now the highs are drowned out via HDMI or optical via TV, or Bluetooth. I was hoping to not need sound bar add, but we shall see. Otherwise, EVERYTHING else is superb.
