The market for wireless earbuds is highly saturated these days with seemingly every company coming out with their own version of the product. While most people don’t expect much from low-cost buds, it’s not hard to find really great options in the mid-range. When I began using the Klipsch T5 II True Wireless ANC earbuds, I naturally expected quite a bit for the premium price tag, but the features and overall experience didn’t exceed much cheaper alternatives, and in some ways is even below their standards.

Snag a pair of Klipsch true wireless earbuds for just $99 ($100 off) on Amazon
The famous Klipsch sound in a tiny package
It's the holiday season, and though you might not be traveling this year, it probably still means some extra noise. True wireless earbuds are a convenient, easy way to drown that out, but the higher-end pairs often cost quite a bit. Luckily, Klipsch is offering its T5 II true wireless earbuds for just $99 ($100 off) on Amazon. Klipsch is known for their high performance audio equipment, and the company promises to bring that same level of quality to their headphones. The buds have high clarity dynamic drivers, which the company promises deliver high output, neutral sound, and deep bass. The earbuds also come with six pairs of ovular, silicon tips, that Klipsch says are a patented design meant to give you the best fit. The headphones also have a "transparency mode," that allows you to hear your surroundings as you listen at the touch of a button. On top of all that, you'll get eight hours of continuous listening on a charge, with up to 24 additional hours from the charging case.
Klipsch has produced high-end audio gear for over 70 years, and the company released a pair of true wireless earbuds last year: the Klipsch T5. The earbuds sound great and have a unique design, and now you can get them for $69.97 on Amazon — a reduction of $30 from the usual price.The T5 earbuds offer oval-shaped tips, USB Type-C charging, 8-hour battery life (plus another 24 hours with the case), and a unique metal case designed after Zippo lighters. We reviewed them last year, and found that they offer fantastic sound, but they lack some of the more advanced features present on other high-end earbuds. There's no active noise cancellation, music doesn't automatically pause when you take the buds out of your ears, and so on.
Klipsch's excellent-sounding T5 true wireless earbuds are just $79 on Amazon
Incredible audio quality and quirky design for a very reasonable price
Those in the market for true wireless earbuds have plenty of offerings to choose from, but if you're looking to stand out, there's probably no better option than the Klipsch T5. It helps that these have amazing sound quality and battery life, too. Launched at $199 last year, the T5 has since dropped to a going price of around $100. This .99 price, however, is the best we've seen yet.Our own Taylor reviewed the T5s when they debuted around this time last year, finding them to have "unequivocally great" sound quality and impressive battery life. The charging case design is inspired by Zippo lighters and is certainly very unique. He did note, however, that the buds are a bit large, and each one has a very bright LED that illuminates more often than needed. Nonetheless, if you value fantastic audio quality (and call quality) and like the design, $78.99 is one hell of a price for these. You'd be hard-pressed to find a better-sounding set of true wireless buds for the money.

As the true wireless earbud market has matured, we've reached a point where we now have a lot of good quality options even at lower price points — they're no longer just an expensive toy for early adopters. Anyone can pick up an affordable pair of TWEs these days and expect half-decent sound quality as well as a few useful extra features. We've reviewed quite a few of these over the years and are therefore able to help you decide which pair is right for you. These are our favorite options in the 'less than $50' and 'less than $100' price brackets.
While the release of Apple's AirPods was a substantial shot in the arm for the wireless earbud market, they are far from the only headphone manufacturer with an established history of producing quality audio hardware. Klipsch, a company known for producing high-end audio equipment since its founding in the middle of the last century, is no exception. Klipsch made its first foray into the Bluetooth earbud market with its T5 Bluetooth earbuds that are now available from Amazon for only 9 — their lowest price yet.During our review, the T5s managed to live up to any expectations of audio quality that the Klipsch name may conjure up. The metal-coated carrying case charged via USB-C and carries up to three additional charges for the earbuds, which should last up to 8 hours on a full battery. Unfortunately, the excellent design of the Zippo-inspired case doesn't quite carry through to the earbuds themselves. While the sound quality is excellent, their design is somewhat bulky, and the indicator LEDs are unnecessarily bright.
Ever since Apple released the AirPods, the market for wireless earbuds and other Bluetooth-equipped headphones has exploded. It comes as no surprise then that US audio specialist Klipsch wants to expand its portfolio of these following the launch of the excellent T5 earbuds last year. The company will introduce revised versions of the T5 with active noise cancellation during CES, as well as a more expensive T10 version and an unnamed over-ear set of ANC headphones. Thanks to a partnership with McLaren, its most expensive earbuds will end up costing as much as a smartphone at $1000. A new soundbar will also deliver some form of Google Assistant support to your living room.
As a company that has been producing high-end audio products since the 1940s, Klipsch is a brand that needs no introduction amongst audiophiles. Today, a deal on Amazon has the silver version of the company's T5 Bluetooth earbuds on sale for $150, which is a savings of $50 and their lowest price yet.In our review, we found the Klipsch T5's sound quality lives up to the Klipsch name, and, with nearly 8 hours of use per charge, the battery life on these earbuds shouldn't disappoint either. The included carrying case can pack up to three additional charges, tops off using USB-C, and should have no trouble standing out with its metal construction and Zippo-like design. No earbud is perfect, however, and these buds are a bit on the bulky side and feature an exceedingly bright LED that could hinder nighttime use.
Klipsch has been making high-end audio gear for more than 70 years. With the better part of a century's worth of audio expertise informing their design, the company's T5 true wireless earbuds have a lot to live up to — and while they lack some of the frills I've come to expect in premium earbuds, they absolutely nail the fundamentals.
According to Google, the company has been selling Home speakers at a rate of more than one per second since the Home Mini was released late last year. That's an incredible statistic, and it doesn't even take into account Assistant speakers from third-parties that have been available since last fall. Last year, we learned about devices from Mobvoi, Panasonic, Sony, and Anker's Zolo sub-brand. They were clearly the tip of the iceberg.
Bluetooth speakers are pretty awesome, but the more premium models can cost quite a bit. If you've been looking for a good wireless speaker, this is just the deal for you. Now you can get the Klipsch portable Bluetooth speaker for $69.99 on Amazon, an $80 savings.This speaker has a 3" full range driver with two side-firing bass radiators, so it should sound great no matter what you're listening to. It's also IPX4 rated, so it can survive the occasional water splash. The Klipsch has an estimated eight-hour battery life, and charges using a standard microUSB cable. Finally, it has Aux input if you don't want to use Bluetooth in some situations.You can find the speaker on Amazon at the link below. The sale ends in 15 hours (from the time of writing), so if you want it, you should buy it soon.Source: Amazon
If you're in the market for some new Bluetooth gear, ley your fingers do the walking over to Woot's Electronics portal today. The site is offering a wide variety of Bluetooth headphones and speakers from a collection of different brands, all at around half off. This is one of Woot's daily deals, so the sale items will only be available today, Sunday (though they may show up in different sales later). Unfortunately Woot is a US-only site.
I'll be the first to admit, I'm a big fan of Klipsch. I like their style, their sound signature, and their products generally. I started with a ProMedia 2.1 computer speaker setup, and have since graduated to a pair of their reference bookshelf speakers, and I've been pleased the whole way through. I had never, however, tried their headphones. Until recently, Klipsch's in-line control headphones designed for smartphones had only fully worked with iOS devices. With the S4A, that changed - it's the first Klipsch headphone designed specifically for use with Android devices.
There's no denying that the ASUS Eee Pad Transformer is one of the best Android tablets on the market. The keyboard dock makes it a one of a kind, and its unusually low price tag gives it more bang-for-your-buck than the bulk of the competition. Today's Daily Deal on eBay is the 32GB version of the Transformer (normally $500) with some pretty sweet accessories. While this bundle doesn't include the keyboard dock, it does bring a $90 Klipsch stereo headset and an 8GB microSD card to the table.
Today’s smartphones are quickly absorbing the functions of other portable devices - PDAs, portable GPS units, and standalone MIDs are a thing of the past - and conventional MP3 players may be next on the cutting block.
