Heritage Design Meets Contemporary Craftsmanship
Klipsch has built its legacy on horn-loaded speakers dating back to 1946, and the Klipsch The Three Plus Premium Bluetooth Speaker channels that DNA in every curve. The solid real-wood cabinet, finished in rich walnut or ash veneers with magnetic metal grilles, exudes warmth and class. Thoughtful touches—like brass-plated knobs and tactile switches—offer a satisfying mechanical response that digital remotes cannot replicate.
At its core, this speaker is a work of fine furniture: corners are hand-routed, veneers are precision-joined, and the vintage-inspired logo plate anchors the front baffle in timeless style. Beneath its classic façade, journey-quality materials—machined aluminum feet and a rigid, resonance-damping MDF chassis—ensure that tones are pure and uncolored by cabinet vibrations. Whether perched on a console table or flanking your favorite armchair, the Klipsch The Three Plus Premium Bluetooth Speaker becomes both a statement piece and a conduit for breathtaking audio fidelity.
Advanced Acoustic Engineering for Rich, Dynamic Sound
Don’t let the compact footprint fool you: Klipsch’s proprietary Tractrix horn-loaded tweeter and dual Woofers, paired with a downward-firing passive radiator, deliver room-filling sound with minimal distortion. The horn-loaded design enhances efficiency, producing crisp highs that extend well beyond 20 kHz and articulate midrange that brings vocals and instruments into sharp relief. Meanwhile, 3-inch copper-spun woofers powered by a 100 W Class-D amplifier generate deep, tight bass that remains heard—not felt—without boominess.
Klipsch’s meticulous crossover network balances the frequency bands, ensuring seamless integration between tweeter and woofer. The result is an immersive soundstage: orchestral swells bloom with natural reverberation, jazz ensembles breathe with spatial nuance, and electronic beats thrum with visceral impact—yet never overwhelm delicate passages. The Klipsch The Three Plus Premium Bluetooth Speaker thrives on high-resolution streams, vinyl resampling, and dynamic playlists alike, preserving sonic detail at every listening level.

Wireless Connectivity and Multiroom Flexibility
At the heart of modern listening is Bluetooth, and the Klipsch The Three Plus Premium Bluetooth Speaker supports Bluetooth 5.0 with aptX HD, ensuring high-bitrate wireless audio up to 48 kHz/24 bit. Pair smartphones, tablets, or laptops within 60 feet and enjoy stutter-free streaming of losslessly ripped albums or curated playlists from Tidal, Qobuz, or Apple Music.
For whole-home audio, the speaker integrates seamlessly with Chromecast, AirPlay 2, and DLNA. Use the Klipsch Stream app to group multiple units—The Three Plus alongside Klipsch The One II or Klipsch The Sixes—for synchronized playback across rooms. True Stereo Mode pairs two Three Plus speakers wirelessly, creating discrete left/right channels for an authentic stereo image. With these options, you can craft intimate solo sessions or scale up to party-worthy soundscapes without additional receivers or complex wiring.
Intuitive On-Device Controls and Companion App
Retro charm meets digital savvy in the controls of the Klipsch The Three Plus Premium Bluetooth Speaker. A cluster of brass-finish knobs along the top panel lets you adjust input selection (Bluetooth, phono, line-in, or USB-DAC), master volume, and bass/treble tone contours—allowing hands-on tonal sculpting that harkens back to vintage hi-fi rigs. The illuminated indicator ring around the volume knob provides visual feedback in low-light settings.
For fine-grained configuration and firmware updates, download the Klipsch Stream app (iOS/Android). Within the app, you can:
- Calibrate DSP‐assisted room EQ to optimize performance based on your speaker placement.
- Rename and group speakers for multiroom playlists.
- Access detailed device health and firmware information.
- Stream directly from Tidal Connect or Qobuz without Bluetooth pairing.
This dual-control paradigm—physical knobs for tactile immediacy and a modern app for advanced features—ensures the Klipsch The Three Plus Premium Bluetooth Speaker adapts to every user, from traditional audiophiles to tech-savvy streamers.

Power, Impedance, and Source Matching

The line-level RCA input supports CD players, DACs, or other hi-fi components with minimal coloration.
The built-in 100 W amplifier delivers ample headroom into the speaker’s nominal 4-ohm load, ensuring dynamic peaks are reproduced without strain. Users can adjust bass and treble via onboard tone controls (+/– 6 dB) to compensate for room acoustics or personal taste—extending versatility across source types and listening levels.
