I got a pair of Sixes recently. For the most part, they work well. Bluetooth and USB work fine with my laptop, phono is fine with my turntable. (Haven't checked aux yet, but will at some point) The problem I run into is with the digital output, i.e. the optical cable. It connects to my TV directly (a Samsung UN40RU7100F). For stuff on the TV itself, I get no sound whatsoever. When I use my consoles (a Nintendo Switch and Wii U), it plays...okay. But if I'm in a menu or something that doesn't have, say, music (like the Switch UI menu), the signal suddenly drops and there is no sound. It returns to normal when sound is expected. Has anyone else had this issue? Is it possible it's the speakers or the optical cable? Want to rule those out before assuming it's the TV.

Hi! I'm a happy new owner of a pair of Sixes. Love the sound and the style but I'm a bit disappointed by a constant noise remaining, no matter the source is used. This white noise is easy to ear with no music playing or with music played at low volume (I use speaker on my working desk, so I'm around 1m far from speakers) Of course, it's covered by music when played at mid/high volume. Here are the symptoms : White noise constantly present no matter the source (BT, Aux, USB, Phono, Digital) no matter if something is connected to the source or not Same noise volume, no matter the setting of the volume button. --> This make me say that speaker creates the noise by themselves, not by the source. What I tried : Remove all other devices plugged on electric outlet (from all electric outlet of the same circuit breaker) Try to plug speakers on an other eletric outlet network Use a power supply cord with and without ground Do you think this is normal or it might be a defect? My local reseller say it's normal for active speakers to have this kind of noise but my 20 years old entry range student stereo player do not have any noise... (But it's not active speaker tho...) I'm really happy with those sixes when I ear them loud, but disappointed when I ear them slow while I'm working... Additional question to Sixes owners : When you turn source button in clockwise direction, how is the led moving? Mine is going top to down which I don't find logical. Clockwise : Digital --> Phono --> USB --> Aux --> BT --> block on BT Counterclockwise : BT --> Aux --> USB --> Phono --> Digital --> block on digital. Perhaps I have a bad wiring of my speakers which could cause this noise? Thanks in advance for your help! Sylvain edit: seems I didn't post in the correct section sorry about that!

Hello, my name is Len and I'm new here and to audio equipment in general. My question is the following. I have a pair of the Klipsch sixes and was wondering if I could add a pair of passive floor standing speakers to my set up with a receiver? If so how do I go about wiring this? How do I control volume? Will I ruin my sixes? I'm lost and in need of guidance. I look forward to any help 🙏

Greetings All, I own a pair of Klipsch Sixes which i initially paired it with a Velodyne Impact 12 subwoofer. I got rid of the sub and now looking for a subwoofer that can pair it with the Sixes? My listening room is about 8X8 meter and my music ranges from Electronica, Jazz, Acid Jazz, Lo-Fi, Folk , Bossa, Latin, Lounge & Hip Hop. Recommendations regarding this request will be highly appreciated. I'm very happy with these speakers I just need something that can complement it on the low frequencies. One more ask: I was planning to get the Klipsch Three's and how do I link in to the Sixes for multi room audio streaming?

Around 1500 today I received a delivery notification from FedEx that my speakers had finally arrived. I was pretty deep in a gearbox inspection at a customer and had it all torn apart. Lucky me, during the NDT, I found three bad gears with cracked teeth. Sweet! No need to put it back together. Send info back to the shop, clean the area, and dash home. My wife sent me a text saying that my "stupid speakers were in my office". I get home, shower up, start a pot of chili, and then head upstairs to get everything swapped out. I tell ya, these are some pretty speakers! You look at the spec sheet dimensions and really don't realize that these are fairly sizable for their class. I am totally blown away. I've been through some of my favorites (In The Light, Tuesday's Gone, Simple Man, Bohemian Rhapsody, the Tron:Legacy soundtrack, all kinds of John Williams soundtrack pieces, Boston, Lamb Of God, Suicide Silence etc...) and so many songs are like listening to them for the first time. Instruments and sounds that I haven't noticed before. Several times I had to make sure I wasn't playing remixes because everything just sounded different. When I first started listening, I had a thought- Hmm, just a tad bit more bass. Went over to the sub to up the gain just a ***, and realized that the status light was out. WHAT?! In my rush to start listening, I forgot to move over the LFE cable from my old receiver. Ha! It kinda made me laugh. The speaker's bass output was just a hair under what I wanted it, and the sub wasn't even running. I enjoy good strong bass, and The Sixes nearly come through on their own. Yanked the screens grilles off...was NOT expecting that! They dampen the horns considerably. I was able to convince the wife to have a listen. Played a few of her favorite songs, and unprompted, she stated the same as my thoughts above. She was convinced that she was listening to covers of her favorites. It's good to know she "gets it"! I would have been very happy with The Sixes if I had paid the retail $800. Paying $479 through a NewEgg Flash deal from Worldwide? I don't think I've ever been more satisfied with a purchase. Not that I have a recent history of better quality audio, but if anyone has been on the shelf(lol) about these, I highly suggest them. You'll even with the ol' lady's OK.

Hi I do not find information about the technical specifications of the Klipsch sixes, I need to know if the amplifier is class AB? What sensitivity do they have? Which sub would be the best to use with the Sixes? Is the amplifier with FET circuits? Thank's Salva

Hi, Interested in the Heritage series products (The Three and The Sixes). Does anyone knows if they support apt-x codec ? Or does anyone have the list of supported codecs ? Thanks Romain
