Klipsch The Sevens II Dolby Atmos® 6.5″ Powered Speakers

Description

About the Klipsch The Sevens II Dolby Atmos® 6.5″ Powered Speakers

Each Klipsch The Sevens II Dolby Atmos® 6.5″ Powered Speaker uses a 1-inch titanium LTS vented tweeter with Tractrix horn and a 6.5-inch Jet Cerametallic woofer. Together, they deliver a frequency response of 39Hz to 25kHz and up to 106dB maximum output from a stereo pair.

At Rapallo, the Klipsch The Sevens II are a powerful choice for customers who want a serious all-in-one speaker system without a separate amplifier or AV receiver.

They are especially strong for living-room systems. Connect your TV with HDMI eARC, add a turntable through the built-in phono input, stream with AirPlay 2, Google Cast, Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, or Qobuz Connect, and you have a very flexible system in just two speakers.

The Sevens II also add features that the original powered Klipsch speakers did not offer. Dolby Atmos, Dirac room correction, HDMI 2.1 pass-through, Wi-Fi streaming, and an Onkyo-developed electronics platform make this a much more complete product. Audio Advice described the Fives II, Sevens II, and Nines II as a major rebuild rather than a small update.

We like The Sevens II for customers who want a bigger sound than compact powered speakers can provide, but do not want the size of The Nines II. They suit medium rooms, TV spaces, vinyl setups, and streaming-first systems. Add a subwoofer, and they become a very capable compact cinema or music system.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What are Klipsch The Sevens II?
   The Sevens II are premium powered speakers with built-in amplification, streaming, HDMI eARC, phono input, Bluetooth, Dolby Atmos playback, and Dirac room correction. They are designed as a complete two-speaker system for music, TV, vinyl, and gaming.
2. Do The Sevens II need an amplifier?
   No, they do not need a separate amplifier. The amplification is built into the speaker system. Therefore, you can connect sources directly, including a TV, turntable, streamer, phone, computer, or digital source.
3. Do Klipsch The Sevens II support Dolby Atmos?
   Yes, The Sevens II support Dolby Atmos playback with Virtual Height Channels. This creates a more immersive sound field from a two-speaker system. However, it is not the same as a full multi-speaker Atmos setup with separate ceiling or height speakers.

   Dirac Live is room correction software. It measures your room using the included calibration microphone and adjusts the sound to improve balance, clarity, and bass behaviour.

What the Experts Say

• Audio Advice reviewed the updated Klipsch Fives II, Sevens II, and Nines II range and described the new models as a major rebuild. It highlighted the addition of Onkyo electronics, Dolby Atmos, Dirac Live, HDMI 2.1 eARC, and full Wi-Fi streaming.

Key Features

• WIRELESS HI-RES STEREO – The Sevens II now offer optional cable-free stereo playback. Connect them the old-school way for 96kHz of pure audio bliss, or skip the wires and enjoy 48kHz of robust, studio- and cinema-quality sound with nothing to hide.
• ONE-PIECE BMC BAFFLE – The new one-piece BMC baffle is denser and more rigid, stopping unwanted resonance. A curved radius widens the soundstage, improving off-axis sound and producing a more detailed response without masking.
• STUNNING RED OAK FINISH – They’ve added a bold new colorway to the mix. Say hello to Red Oak, a wood veneer designed to catch the eye as well as the ears.
• DURABLE METAL CONTROLS – A revised control panel on the speaker’s top edge allows you to manually select volume and source via a metal wheel and button.
• BACKLIT REMOTE – Fine-tune the experience or toggle between inputs and sources without breaking the mood using the new remote with convenient keypad backlighting.
• ANALOG INPUT WITH PHONO STAGE – Play your favorite LPs without the extra gear. A dedicated analog input with a built-in phono stage eliminates the need for a preamp, allowing you to plug your turntable in directly.
• MOBILE APP INTEGRATION – The Klipsch Connect mobile app allows you to select and customize presets, change input and source, and automatically access your favorite playlists.

Powered Speaker System

The Sevens II are a powered monitor pair. That means the amplification and inputs are built in. Therefore, you do not need a separate stereo amplifier for a simple music, TV, or turntable system.

Dolby Atmos Playback

The Sevens II support Dolby Atmos playback with Virtual Height Channels. This helps create a wider and more immersive sound field from a two-speaker system. It is ideal for movies, streaming shows, games, and Atmos music.

HDMI 2.1 with eARC

HDMI 2.1 eARC allows simple one-cable connection to a compatible TV. The HDMI system also supports pass-through features such as 8K, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, VRR, ALLM, QFT, BT.2020 colour, and HDCP 2.3. As a result, the speakers suit modern TV and gaming setups.

Dirac Live Room Correction

The Sevens II include a Dirac limited licence and a calibration microphone. Dirac room correction helps tune the speakers to your room, improving balance, clarity, and bass control.

Klipsch Horn-Loaded Sound

A 1-inch titanium LTS vented tweeter with Tractrix horn gives The Sevens II the lively, clear, and dynamic sound Klipsch is known for. This helps vocals, guitars, dialogue, and effects sound immediate and engaging.

6.5-Inch Jet Cerametallic Woofer

The 6.5-inch Jet Cerametallic woofer delivers strong bass and midrange performance from a compact cabinet. The speakers reach down to 39Hz, which is impressive for powered bookshelf-style speakers.

Built-In Streaming

The Sevens II support streaming through Google Cast, Apple AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, TIDAL Connect, Qobuz Connect, and more. Therefore, they work well for customers who want direct app-based playback without adding a separate streamer.

Built-In Phono Input

The RCA phono input allows direct connection of a turntable with a moving-magnet cartridge. This makes The Sevens II a great option for vinyl listeners who want a compact and modern powered system.

Optional Wireless Left / Right Link

The Sevens II can be connected with the supplied speaker cable for 24-bit / 96kHz audio. They also offer optional wireless left-right stereo linking at 48kHz, which can reduce cable clutter in some rooms.

Premium Wood Veneer Finishes

The cabinets use MDF with genuine wood veneer and are available in Walnut, Ebony, and Red Oak. The Red Oak finish adds a modern white baffle and light-grey removable grilles.
