Klipsch Gallery™ G-17 Air Airplay™ Speakers
Introducing the Klipsch Gallery G-17 Air wireless speaker system with a sophisticated design matched only by its acoustical prowess. Unfettered by speaker wire, this innovative work of art takes the unmistakable, horn-loaded sound to new places. And it beautifully complements any environment.
The elegant, injection-molded polymer cabinet features a front baffle that curves on both sides to please the eye and deliver a solid, low-resonance structure. And the twelve-step finishing process provides a high-gloss luster that emulates a fine musical instrument.
That sleek appearance carries through to the acoustically invisible grille. At half the thickness of a credit card, the decision on whether to remove the frameless, magnetic grille comes down to pure aesthetics. Aesthetics that are gorgeously reflected in the high-end, dark tempered glass base. Or mount it on the wall via dual keyhole mounts.
But don’t take it for a wallflower.
The G-17 Air is a social butterfly. Not only does it perform anywhere. But it also performs with just about any device.
Simply connect over an existing wireless network for uncompromised Apple Lossless sound through your iPod®, iPhone® or iPad® via AirPlay. The G-17 Air has an array of set-up tools, including a free IOS app and web app, for hassle-free user experience.
Music, movies, games. No wires.
A USB, 3.5mm analog and most 30-pin Apple devices can also plug in and play on.
The remote controls volume, mute and power on the speaker. It also dictates track selection on any Apple®-connected devices.
The G-17 Air has yet to meet a stranger.
It’s also at home anywhere. And everywhere.
Not only does it connect with multiple devices, but a collection of these wireless wonders readily forms a whole-house system. Simply stream your iTunes® music from a Mac or PC and let the legendary Klipsch sound follow you wherever you go.
Complete with stereo Tractrix® Horns, each G-17 Air delivers lifelike, dynamic sound from its sleek, compact cabinet. The three quarter-inch, solid-formed, lightweight, aluminum diaphragms work in conjunction with precise phasing plugs at the horn throats to create highly efficient drivers with excellent transient response and lack of distortion.
Add that to the long-throw injection-molded graphite woofers and bi-amplified power, and you have a giant evolutionary leap in Klipsch history.
Increase your living space dramatically with the Klipsch G-17 Air and set your playlist free.
Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
I was anxiously waiting for this product to arrive and when it did arrive it was an awesome surprise. I loved how pretty and cool this product looked and the packaging was great. The setup was not an issue at all but except the blue light (wireless signal) was always blinking slowly. Even with that blinking blue light, I was able to wirelessly sync my PC and macbook pro without any issues. The sound from this baby is very loud with its awesome bass for my 1200 sqrft apartment...lucky me the neighbors didn't complain. I could hear the beats and other subtle music elements very clearly. I have seen and tested the bower and wilkins zeppelin...which is no match to Klipsch G-17 quality in looks and music. But again that's my preference. However, I did have one complaint...this unit didn't work properly with my iPhone 4S. The music would play for few seconds and then abruptly stop and then play again. I tried reseting the system multiple times and called Klipsch customer care but they too couldn't solve the issue. Unfortunately, this product is so new that not many blogs/forums exist for any guidance. I didn't have a iPhone 4 to test its capability. At one point, the wireless signal did stay steady but still my i phone 4S didn't work wirelessly as well as the laptops did. iPhone worked great when connect via USB to the unit...but I didn't pay $550 for that. Therefore, this product deserves 5 stars but I gave 3 since it didn't wirelessly sync with my iPhone 4S. Thus I had to return this system back to AMAZON. I almost cried when packing it... almost got attached to this baby. Hopefully a better and advanced Klipsch will be out later...Will definitely try it again.
