Klipsch The Nines Powered Bookshelf  Loudspeakers (pair)

A bi‑amplified 8″ long‑throw woofer system with titanium-Tractrix tweeter, HDMI-ARC, phono input, USB, optical, RCA and subwoofer out

The Nines blend mid-century styling and premium materials, including real wood veneer and tactile metal controls, in a compact powered speaker pair that delivers big sound without a receiver.

Each pair features an 8″ high‑excursion fiber‑composite cone woofer, titanium LTS tweeter with a Klipsch Tractrix horn, and DSP‑optimized bi‑amplification for clarity and dynamic bass performance.

Connectivity includes HDMI‑ARC (for TV), Bluetooth 5.0 (aptX/AAC), RCA analog (switchable phono/line), 3.5 mm aux, USB Type‑B, and digital optical inputs. A mono RCA subwoofer output lets you easily expand bass with a powered sub.

Klipsch is very good at getting its house sound from even the smallest products. Yes, even a powered speaker like this will impress you with its dynamics (a Klipsch hallmark) and wide frequency range. Plus, don't miss that beautiful design: A thoroughly modern product cloaked in classic mid-century styling. This is not a Bluetooth speaker you'd want to hide away.
