The Next Chapter in the Model Collection
Since KLH reintroduced Model Five in 2021 to critical acclaim and reset the bar for the American loudspeaker, the company has been deliberate about every model that followed. Model Three brought acoustic suspension performance to a bookshelf-friendly form. Then came Model Seven, the three-way flagship built around the industry's first acoustically suspended 13-inch woofer in an exceptionally narrow, wall-friendly cabinet.
Model Four brings together the defining strengths of the Model Collection. Built around the 8-inch woofer introduced in Model Three and sharing the same midrange driver, tweeter and crossover architecture as the acclaimed Model Five, it delivers the refined vocal presence, midrange clarity and high-frequency detail that made Model Five an industry benchmark. Its cabinet borrows the wide baffle and shallow depth proportions of Model Seven, a profile purpose-built for placement closer to walls.
Built for Design-Conscious Listeners & Real Rooms
Great sound shouldn't be reserved for those with dedicated listening rooms. It belongs in the living rooms of apartments, lofts and condos where it must coexist with real life, in first homes and forever homes alike. KLH has always answered that call, pairing mid-century modern design with the benefits of the acoustic suspension technology it pioneered.
While ported cabinet designs can become muddy and distorted when placed near walls or in tighter spaces, acoustic suspension performs beautifully in nearly any room — delivering tight, accurate bass with as little as a few inches of rear clearance and without the wall and room interaction that affects them. Unlike ported speakers that reward careful placement and punish poor positioning, acoustic suspension simply works. It sounds consistent and accurate whether tucked against a wall, placed in a corner or pulled into the middle of a room.
Model Four delivers on that room-friendly promise with a 13-inch-wide front baffle and shallow 8.25-inch cabinet depth. Paired with a purpose-built 6-degree slanted riser that precisely aligns the tweeter and midrange with the listener, the total depth comes to just under 11 inches — the shallowest in the Model Collection. Where most floorstanding speakers demand deep footprints and generous wall clearance, Model Four's placement flexibility and mid-century modern aesthetic are designed to complement any space, not compete with it.
