Our FFT quasi-anechoic measurements were made with the speaker standing in the clear, as far as possible from any walls.īass response was measured separately for the driven woofers and the passive cone. The 1-foot distance was used for our room-response measurements. Since no specific suggestions for room placement were supplied with our samples of the Klipsch kg4, we tried them first about 1 foot from the rear wall and moved them through a range sufficient to establish that the speaker-to-wall spacing was not at all critical. There are no external controls or adjustments. The binding-post terminals, recessed into the rear of the cabinet, accept banana plugs, including dual plugs on 3/4-inch centers, as well as wires. On the rear panel of the enclosure is a 12-inch passive cone radiator that extends the low-frequency response limits of the smaller bass drivers. At the top of the panel is a horn-loaded tweeter-a device unusual in home speakers-with mouth dimensions of 8-1/2 x 3 inches. The front panel of the kg4 contains two white plastic-cone woofers, one above the other, with a nominal diameter of 8 inches. The dark brown, wood-framed cloth grille is retained by strong plastic fasteners and requires considerable effort for removal. Its handsomely finished oak-veneer enclosure is 24-1/4 inches high, 15-3/4 inches wide, and 10-3/4 inches deep, and the system weighs 45 pounds. The KG-200 certainly looks the business, then and everything is here to make sure you get down to business.The Klipsch kg4 is a two-way floor-standing speaker system featuring unusually high efficiency (for a home speaker) combined with an extended, smooth frequency response. Everything is here to get you up and running no matter your platform and all feels well built and thought through. Klipsch’s package with the KG-200 is certainly fleshed out as well as you would expect and I’ve no major qualms about what is or isn’t included. #Klipsch kg 4.2 reviews tvThere is a USB extender out of shot but here we have the voice cables for both the PlayStation 3 & 4, the Xbox 360 voice cable, microphone and analog audio adapter for either your TV or monitors output or to plug directly into either console manufacturer analogue AV cable. #Klipsch kg 4.2 reviews PcThe line audio and mic adapters are always present even if you only choose to use USB audio, however, if you do use USB audio only on PC you forgo the ability to use the KG-200’s volume functions on the headset itself as game and voice is treated as one channel. No braided cable here or gold plating here, but the rubbered sheath that runs along the cable doesn’t feel cheap by any means. Although the headband looks solid from the image it’s actually quite forgiving if you exert some force. The headband is cushioned by a thick layer of rubber that has some give in it. The ear padding itself has a good cushion to it and also sports this rather impressive metallic finish to it, giving it kevlar-like look and feel fitting the gaming market just right. THe right handside is for the microphone itself. The left one is for the connecting wire either to an Xbox 360 controller or a DualShock 3/4. The two jacks below are for the voice capabilities of the KG-200. I think with this approach Klipsch ‘s dedicated audio background is showing through for the best. Having the console located on the ear piece, in my experience, is a lot easier to adjust mid-game and also means you can avoid the clutter of having a volume rocker located somewhere on the cable that, really, needs to be within reach at all times. I really wish more manufacturers would take this approach to volume and voice controls. Here is the control panel located on the right side. In terms of headsets I’ve covered in the past, the KG-200 definitely looks like one of the best. The internal blister packaging was quite hard to photograph without light reflecting off every surface so instead we’ll dive right to the KG-200 centre piece itself. The rear of the packaging is quite the change, Klipsch choosing to stick to a more slick yet informative approach. It’s hard to make out in the initial picture here, but the material on the ear-cups really does catch the eye. Closer Lookįirst up we have the KG-200 packaging which appears to take on a sort of Desert Storm camo effect – no way of mistaking these for anything other gaming cans.
