Klipsch expanded its Gallery Series Speakers with the new Gallery G-17 Air AirPlay Wireless Speaker. The G-17 Air allows wireless access and playback of your iTunes libraries from your Apple smart device, such as an iPad, iPhone or iPod touch capable of running iOS 4.2. Android-based smartphones and tablets can also stream to the speaker if used with Android's music player app. Simply plug the G-17 into your wall, and connect wirelessly over an existing Wi-Fi network.
At 17 inches long, the G-17 Air effortlessly pumps out robust sound with deep bass and clear dynamic range. Complete with the proprietary Tractrix Horn, Klipsch claims you'll hear all the power, detail and emotion you expect from a live performance.
The elegantly shaped, high density resin cabinet is finished with a unique, twelve-step process that produces a piano black, high gloss luster that emulates a fine musical instrument, and mounts vertically or horizontally on a wall.
