Klipsch Gig: A small speaker big on bass

2013-11-26
I'm David karna and I'm here with the cliffs gig which is currently the smallest modeling Klipsch is a line of wireless Bluetooth speakers I'll tell you what I like about it first for starters it's got a nice sturdy feel to it and by that I mean it feels substantial even though it's compact it also has a removable wraparound ban the clip says is both protective and serves as a style statement it also allows you to prop the speaker up in a vertical position that band is easy to swap out and comes in a variety of colors though only one comes in the box as far as extra features go the gig has speakerphone capabilities as well as app tech support and NFC tap to pair for smartphones that offer those features I also like the way Clips designed the controls the power button is on the top or side depending on how you orient the speaker and that's where you'll find the audio input for non bluetooth devices and the microUSB charging port to juice this thing up battery life is rated at 12 hours which is better than what you get from a lot of these speakers and basically takes you through a full day of music listening the battery life indicator is on top of the volume control knob which also doubles as a one-button remote allowing you to pause and play tracks as well as skip tracks forward and back and all I thought this was a very well designed speaker I also thought it was sounded decent for its size with his bass response its biggest strength it goes deeper than many of the very compact portable speakers in its $200 price class including the UE boom and JBL pulse and it's close to Bose Soundlink mini however the gig isn't as detailed or natural sounding as those speakers so you do give up something on the clarity front which is too bad aside from that shortcoming I like the gig and think it will appeal the folks who listen to more bass heavy music whether it be Technol or hip hop overall it's an appealing little speaker with good features in a strong design it just has a lot of competition and some of it sounds a little better despite not having as much bass I'm David Carr noise and that's the cliffs gig thanks for watching
