Klipsch Detroit Reviews
Worked great until it didn't

It worked great until it didn't. I really liked the size and sound quality. It was used almost everyday for a couple of hours for about 2 years, then it completely stopped working, It would no longer charge and would only partially worked when it was plugged in. A complete failure after 2 years seems unacceptable for a premium device. Beware!
Beautiful speaker, incredible sound

I’ve had my Detroit for about a year, I bought it for my commercial bakery, and as I broke it out yesterday, listening to music all day it’s solidified why I chose klipsch, I have the bookshelf speakers for my high Fidelity turntable set up, and I also have their home theater system for my big screen downstairs both have subwoofers and both are amazing but this little speaker is something else, wide dynamic sound with deep thunderous bass
