These active speakers are truly amazing. If you get them on sale, the price to performance is second to none! The quality of everything in the box speaks for itself. Klipsch really gave a high attention to detail with these speakers from the modern vintage look, the included braided cables, the quality knibd and connections, and thats before even listening to them! Once powered on and connected, these speakers really shine. It’s not even fair to compare them to other bookshelves as these really compete with floorstanders. It would cost way more to get a quality receiver, amp, dac, etc. And a pair of floorstanders that could match what The Nines are capable of. This is all before we have even mentioned THE BASS. The Nines are more than capable of being a standalone system without the need of a subwoofer. Of course if youre a real bass-head and need the whole block to shake then go for an additional subwoofer, but trust me these were shaking my whole house without one. The only reason The Nines get a 9/10 is the lack of a Wifi connection for high quality streaming. Other than that the quality of all the other features and the truly amazing performance make these a No-Brainer. Don’t even hesitate, buy them already.

Klipsch speakers are fantastic - my vinyl sounds absolutely incredible with these. Plus the phone app for an equalizer, bluetooth, etc. these are tremendous and powerful speakers. I love them. Also helped that I picked them up on a good sale.

The sound quality on these are amazing! They ended up sounding so good I had to upgrade my subwoofer as well. I found that my old 12" Subwoofer was detracting from the sound quality and that the speakers sounded better on their own. The bass boost is nice for music (only use if running these without a sub), but would not recommend for movies as it makes it sounds worse. I ended up pairing these with a new SVS SB-2000 Pro subwoofer and am pleased with the final result. Just make sure if you plan on purchasing these you are pushing high quality audio through them. If you plan on using Bluetooth or listening to poor quality audio you won't realize the potential and it might not be worth the cost. I love good sound quality and found myself immersed in songs like never before. Additional Notes: - I'm using these on a PC setup. - Speakers are huge, make sure you measure and space out your setup beforehand.

The sound is amazing, the highs are definitely worth every penny when you hear one drop on TV. And it sounds like it’s in the room next to you.

Coming from a headphone only I really wanted to try out some speakers were plug and play and these dit the bill especially for large rooms. Sound quality is great and no sub is necessary unless you want more and all the connections in the back will be very useful layer on. The app is no longer supported on my new phone so thats a downside, but does not bother at all.
