Полочная акустика — Klipsch The Sevens II

The Sevens II is the middle model of the second-generation Klipsch powered line, placed between The Fives II and The Nines II. Klipsch designs the range in Indianapolis, and the electronics carry a Powered by Onkyo label, reflecting a joint platform with the Japanese AV brand. The pair costs USD 1,999.99 and is offered in Walnut, Ebony and Red Oak finishes, with shipping from spring 2026.

Key specs that matter

Response is quoted as 39 Hz to 25 kHz at plus or minus 3 dB, and a stereo pair reaches 106 dB at 1 m. Bass comes from a 6.5 inch Jet Cerametallic cone, and treble from a 1 inch titanium LTS tweeter loaded by a Tractrix horn with 90 by 90 degree coverage. Each enclosure is ported to the rear and measures 206 mm wide, 381 mm tall and 317 mm deep. The active speaker, which holds the electronics and inputs, weighs 10.73 kg, and the passive partner 10.4 kg.

Engineering and use context

Film soundtracks in Dolby Atmos are decoded at this size, whereas DTS:X decoding is reserved for the bigger Nines II. Because the main cabinet includes its own phono stage, a turntable connects to the RCA phono jacks with no external preamplifier. Streaming apps are handled natively through Google Cast, Apple AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect and Qobuz Connect, and the Klipsch Connect app controls settings and firmware. On the top of the main speaker sit metal controls with a volume wheel and a button, and the remote supplied in the box is backlit for use in a dark room. A dedicated input accepts the included calibration microphone. Inside, the speaker takes digital audio at up to 24 bit and 96 kHz, and the left-right connection between cabinets is either the supplied cable or an optional wireless link.

Pairing

With HDMI 2.1 input and output, the pair sits between a television and a streaming box or console and passes 8K video onward. Computers connect through USB-C audio, and a USB-A socket takes storage. Digital sources can use optical or coaxial, and an analogue line input covers CD players or a separate phono preamp. Bluetooth 5.4 with AAC also covers phones, and Wi-Fi or Ethernet connect the pair to a home network. For a 20 m2 room or film use, the RCA subwoofer output lets a Klipsch or other powered sub extend the low end below the woofer's range.

Alternatives

The Klipsch The Fives II is the smaller powered pair in this generation, with a 13 cm Cerametallic woofer and a 25 mm titanium tweeter.
