KLH Model Five
Accurate, Transparent KLH Sound
The KLH Model Five’s dedicated midrange driver is specifically designed to reproduce the mid-frequency band, resulting in remarkable clarity of vocals and instruments. Reducing distortion, the 10-inch woofer allows low-frequency performance to remain controlled even at the highest excursions. Last, but not least, the aluminum tweeter combines the virtues of accurate frequency response and dispersion characteristics that are smooth and natural.
Modern-Day, Retro Design
The English Walnut Model Five comes with a beautiful Stone Wash Linen grille cloth that magnifies the rich finish of the real wood veneers.
Model Five Slant Riser Base
The Model Five stands strong on a 5-degree slant riser base made from powder-coated 14-gauge steel. The riser base’s upward angular stance ensures the sound is directed accurately toward the listener, while the steel ensures it to be a solid and non-resonant speaker base.
Acoustic Suspension Design
Unlike bass-reflex systems, the acoustic suspension design is not optimized to favor one frequency band at the expense of another. The volume of the air in the enclosure ensures that the 10-inch woofer will always be in control, and the low-frequency performance will remain clean even at the highest cone excursions.
The Model Five acoustic suspension speaker is known as one of the finest and most sought-after speakers for audiophiles, both new and seasoned. Our updated version of this classic speaker has real wood veneers, cast aluminum baskets, and uses acoustic suspension design principles made famous by founder Henry Kloss.
