KLH Audio

KLH Audio is an American loudspeaker manufacturer with roots dating back to 1957 when it was originally founded as KLH Research and Development Corporation in Cambridge, Massachusetts, by Henry Kloss, Malcolm S. Low, and Josef Anton Hofmann (whose initials formed the company name). The original KLH became the world's largest loudspeaker manufacturer, employing over 500 people and pioneering innovations including the first high-selectivity FM table radio (Model Eight), first full-range electrostatic loudspeaker (Model Nine), and groundbreaking acoustic suspension designs in the legendary Model Five, Six, and Seventeen speakers. After changing hands multiple times, the brand was acquired in January 2017 by Kelley Global Brands, led by former Klipsch Global Sales President David P. Kelley, who relocated operations to Noblesville, Indiana. Under Kelley's leadership, KLH Audio has returned to founder Henry Kloss's original mission of building world-class loudspeakers at affordable prices, launching 35+ SKUs distributed across 22 countries since 2018. The company's experienced team includes Sales SVP Greg Topp, Product Development SVP Sal Cannatella, CTO Steve Howell, Finance/Operations VP Jon Kerns, Business Development VP Jeff Dano, Marketing VP George Harris, and National Sales Manager Patrick Thompson. KLH Audio honors its Massachusetts heritage by naming new speakers after streets in Cambridge, while focusing on delivering affordable audiophile-level experiences through premium home theater systems, tower speakers, bookshelf speakers, and headphones that bridge traditional hi-fi excellence with contemporary design and accessibility.
