Frequently Bought Together
Product Overview & Specifications
The legendary KLH Model Five was first introduced in 1968 and served as the heart and soul of KLH's success throughout the late 1960s and 1970s. At its core was the acoustic suspension design that dominated the loudspeaker industry for decades and made the Model Five one of the best-selling loudspeakers of its era. Re-introduced to build on the original acoustic suspension principles, the modern Model Five utilizes advanced loudspeaker technology, premium materials, and modern driver manufacturing to deliver an exceptional listening experience.
