KLH Announces Model Behavior Sale of their Iconic Speaker Line
Until April 18th, save hundreds on KLH’s iconic Model Three, Five, and Seven speakers.
One of the most beloved speaker brands around, KLH was reborn in 2018 under the ownership and direction of former Klipsch president David P. Kelley. Like the iconic Klipsch brand, KLH was one of the leading innovators in home speaker technology during the golden age of hi-fi. In the ’60s and ’70s, KLH released the groundbreaking Model Eight high-selectivity FM Radio, the first full-range electrostatic loudspeaker Model Nine, and developed the acoustic suspension loudspeaker system, which was a breakthrough in home listening allowing for more precise sound in compact enclosures. Their Model Five three-way loudspeaker remains a classic home speaker that rivals the legacies of Klipsch’s Heresy and JBL’s L100.
Speaking about the re-launch, Kelly said, “The excitement here is to take KLH back to its roots and founder Henry Kloss’s original mission: to build world-class loudspeakers and radios at affordable prices. This is because our belief is that high-performance audio should not be the province of the wealthy, but should be enjoyed and accessible to people from all walks of life.”
On the note of affordability, this week KLH announced the “Model Behavior” sale on their flagship line: Model Three ($1,600/pair), Five ($3,000/pair), and Seven ($5,000/pair). Shop for Model Three, Five, and Seven directly through KLH.


Read our review of KLH’s Model Seven here. While listening to our 2025 reissue of Electric Satie, we heard “the vocals and electronic percussion stood out on opener “Universe” with incredibly present, clear, and beautiful sound. The lower bass frequencies, largely produced by MIDI electronic upright bass, had a subtle fullness that wasn’t overpowering. Comparing to the ’80s Klipsch Heresy speakers I have at home, there was a similarity in how well these speakers make organic instruments and voices come alive, though the Heresy certainly colored the sound much more.”
Audio Advice: “Part of what you hear as effortlessness is the larger woofer working within the linear comfort zone that the sealed air spring provides. There is no sense of a tuning peak or a port contributing a note of its own. Low end lines simply start and stop when they should. The wide baffle helps as well, reducing energy that would otherwise wrap around the cabinet and reflect from nearby boundaries. That translates into cleaner first arrival sound and more stable imaging, especially in rooms where the speakers cannot be pulled far from the wall.”
