Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The KLH AV1001B is a two-way bookshelf loudspeaker housed in a ported black cabinet small enough to fit on a bookshelf. The 5.25-inch dynamic fiber-cone woofer and 0.88-inch liquid-cooled dome tweeter offer 100-watt maximum power handling, 8-ohm average impedance, and a frequency response of 80 to 20,000 Hz. Magnetically shielded, the speakers can be placed near your TV without causing the screen image to distort. Use them as front speakers for a small home theater system or as satellites with a larger one. Additional features on the KLH AV1001B include spring clip terminals and removable speaker grilles.

KLH offers a two-year warranty on parts and labor for the AV1001B loudspeakers.

4.0 out of 5 stars Attractive bookshelf (or wall mount) speakers., July 21, 1999

By	Dr. R. L. Sleight - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

These small KLH speakers were just what I was looking for in a low cost, very attractive bookshelf style pair for my office. The sound quality is adequate (especially in an office setting where better base would bother my coworkers down the hall.) The small port in the back is a feature I've always favored. Amazon.com service was quick as usual.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great economic speakers, nice sound!, November 29, 1999

By	ElectroLund "Rob" (Colorado) - See all my reviews

As terminally addicted to the asthetic, I must admit that first and foremost, any psuedo-surround sound speakers I bought must look attractive. These do!

They're small for one, well-built and sound great to boot! They make a nice addition to a partially assembled system like mine, and really round out the sound. My system is piecemeal: an Onkyo amp with two channel outputs (front and back), a Technics CD player, and Acoustic stage 150W speakers. What I needed was rear channel speakers. These fit the bill.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great speakers for the price, February 3, 2004

By A Customer

Fellow who used monster cable was a bit odd whereas his speakerwire would have costed a lot more than the speakers. For speakers that are $50/pair or so, they're pretty darn good. Faint praise to some extent, but really, for the money no complaints. I've had a pair for a very long time, just dusted them off and hooked them up to use'm again and thought I'd see what Amazon had to say about them. They don't come close to my ancient AR-9 speakers nor my newer Energy "5.1" speakers, but those costed way more than 50 bucks. Each. :-)

Audiophile speakers? No way. Great cheapies? You bet!
