Klipsch The Fives Powered Speaker System - Matte Black

Q: Are these speakers gluten-free?
A: This is not applicable to the product as it is an electronic device and not a food item.

Q: Are the Fives better than the Sixes? Or how do these compare?
A: The Fives are a complete ground-up redesign with better DAC, HDMI ARC, and the ability to play 3db louder. Though the driver is smaller, the voice coil is 50% larger. The Fives have superseded the Sixes in feature set, sound, and output.

Q: What specific Klipsch subwoofer model numbers work with these specific speakers?
A: Any sub that has an LFE hookup will work with these speakers. Customers have reported using them with the Klipsch R100SW Reference subwoofer with great results.

Q: Can an Android phone and tablet control the volume via Bluetooth? Will speakers auto-connect when using tablet through Bluetooth?
A: While you can adjust the volume by the source device within certain limitations, you will not obtain the maximum volume unless the speakers are turned all the way up. As for auto-connecting, this may vary depending on your device's settings.

Q: On my Fives' LED source indicator, the "analog" source option is labeled "aux" instead. Might this be a misprint or am I getting a fake pair of speakers?
A: The "aux" label on the LED source indicator for analog input is correct and not a misprint. Other customers who purchased from reputable sources have also reported seeing "aux" instead of "analog."

Q: Why is there no adjustment for frequency on hi and low even +6 -6 would be acceptable? Many companies do not have this simple feature.
A: You can download the Klipsch Connect App to manually adjust EQ settings for bass, midrange, and treble (low, mid, and high) with factors of +6 or -6. You will need to update the firmware of the Fives via the "Service" USB port on the back of the primary speaker to unlock the EQ settings in the app.

Q: Where I live, it is very humid. Indoors, it's not that bad, but if I were to occasionally use these outside, could they last?
A: The Fives are not intended for outdoor use and are designed for indoor use only.

Q: I am using an Audient id14 mkii for my headphones and mic inputs. What would I need in order to connect these speakers to this interface?
A: You can connect the Klipsch Fives by optical output or by analog outputs to your Audient id14 mkii interface.

Q: Do these speakers pass thru 4k, Dolby Vision, HDR10, Dolby Digital, DTS, DTS-X, etc.?
A: The Fives do not pass any video signal. There is simply an HDMI eARC input on them for audio. They will receive and output the raw PCM audio signal.
