  • AirPlay enabled, Light and fairly small, Good build quality
  • Jaw droppingly expensive, Virtually mono audio reproduction, Bass weak when quiet, overblown when loud, AirPlay very slow to enable when switched on, No Apple charging dock
  • The Klipsch G-17 Air is a product condemned by its price tag. It is well built, reasonably portable (despite being mains powered) and its output belies its size. Unfortunately this counts for little when a £429 RRP places it against (and even above) compe...

  • Abstract:  Product round-up Apple’s AirPlay wireless streaming protocol can be used to play music from an iPod touch, iPhone, iPad, or from iTunes on a Mac or PC, directly to a compatible speaker. AirPlay uses Wi-Fi rather than Bluetooth and so audio is not compr...

  • The G-17 ain’t cheap, but based on our experience with other AirPlay-capable systems, this is one case where you’re getting what you pay for. With the G-17, Klipsch has built a stylish, powerful AirPlay speaker system that’s easy to recommend. ...

  • The Klipsch Gallery G-17 Air is a great-sounding wireless speaker with AirPlay functionality. It can stream audio from any source that has iTunes installed along with any iPad, iPhone, or iPod Touch. It'll also play audio over USB with Apple devices, and
  • The worst thing about the G-17 is its $550 price tag, which is among the higher-priced AirPlay units on the market. USB playback only works with Apple products, not with any USB device. The included remote feels a bit cheap
  • While it packs an impressive punch in terms of sound performance and feature set, the G-17 is more expensive than an iPad and doesn't seem worth its $550 price tag.

  • Streams audio wirelessly from Apple iOS devices. Quality audio performance that lacks exaggerated bass response. Sleek, modern design. Wall-mountable.
  • Expensive. Finicky remote
  • The Klipsch Gallery G-17 Air is a wonderful-sounding wireless speaker dock, and a recent iOS update irons out some AirPlay streaming issues we experienced during testing....

  • Abstract:  While unpacking the Gallery G-17 Air AirPlay Speakers, Klipsch’s first foray into the nascent market for AirPlay-enabled wireless speakers, I admit to being a bit skeptical. First there was the $550 price tag. But the speakers also shipped with a pair ...
