KLH Model 3 Loudspeakers - Walnut (Pair)

KLH Model 3 Loudspeakers in English Walnut 

The newest addition to the Model Collection: the stunning KLH Model Three loudspeaker.

This beauty is a compact bookshelf speaker that rivals the largest floor-standing speakers. The Model Three’s two-way design continues the KLH acoustic suspension legacy of accurate, audiophile-quality performance.

This charming bookshelf speaker serves as the perfect solution for music enthusiasts with smaller listening spaces. Unlike other loudspeakers at this price point, listeners have the flexibility to place their Model Three’s closer to the wall than the average tower speaker. Or with even more convenience, you can fit your Model Three on a bookshelf!

Built on the acoustic suspension design principles made famous by KLH founder Henry Kloss, the KLH Model Three delivers a familial acoustic signature and musical integrity to its elder, the KLH Model Five.

KLH’s Chief Engineer, Kerry Geist, designed the new Model Three using modern-day advanced technology, the finest materials, and artisan craftsmanship to achieve the unimaginable: jaw-dropping low-bass extension, surprising mid-bass detail, and high-frequency accuracy, all from a small inclosure.

Audiophiles, do not let the size fool you. Whether your room is large or small, the music delivered from the Model Three will command your attention and connect you to the sound.

The reviews speak for themselves...

 “The Model Three always sounds taut, rhythmic, and controlled, helping to connect with the music on an emotional level. I wanted to listen longer and rediscover all my old favourite pieces of music.” Mark Gusew, StereoNET

“Now with respect to sound quality, I’m not going to beat around the bush. Like the Model Fives, the Threes are amazing.

They’re very much like a scaled-down version of the Five in that the midrange and treble clarity is simply off the charts and largely without equal at this price point. Enjoyable across the widest range of music genres.

There is no denying that the Model Three is another win for KLH, and one that is easy for me to recommend—especially when your room and listening tastes align with its strengths.” Andrew Robinson

“I think the KLH Model Threes are one of the best deals and best-kept secrets in audio.” Robert Schryer, Stereophile
