'Finally, heritage-look speakers without the elite asking fee': KLH's Model Four floorstanders come with a decidedly retro 1970s price —and I want them

KLH Model Four speakers in a hi-fi listening room.

• KLH Model Four is the US brand's gorgeous new floorstanding speaker
• Model Four takes the smaller Model Three's woofer and mid driver/tweeter of the bigger Model Five
• At just $999 / £899 each, they're less expensive than I'd expected (although you're going to want to buy two)

Just look at those beautiful speakers! The angled up built-in stands; the three-way design; the glorious front baffle and wooden cabinetry. I haven't felt this way about speakers since I gazed upon the Leak Sandwich 100 — but those are standmount boxes, and they carry a similar price point (depending on where you live) to the much bigger beast you came here to read about: the KLH Model Four.
