Klipsch T5 II True Wireless

The Klipsch T5 II True Wireless earbuds offer up to 8 hours of listening and the case banks 24 hours of power to wirelessly recharge them.

Truly wireless and truly Klipsch

Back in 2019, Klipsch dove headfirst into the truly wireless trend with their T5 True Wireless earbuds. For this new version, you still get that bold Klipsch look and many of the same features that made the original one of our top-selling headphones — including the Zippo® style charging case. But the earbuds themselves are now 25% smaller, completely waterproof, and feature redesigned drivers to better deliver Klipsch's immediate, hard-hitting sound. 

Music plays wirelessly via Bluetooth 5.0, the latest and greatest version of the wireless technology. And the 5mm drivers feature a thinner diaphragm that can move, stop, and start more quickly. All to serve up that famous, dynamic Paul W. Klipsch sound — high on detail, low on distortion — with a nice helping of bass for your on-the-go listening. 

Reliable wireless connection

I visited Klipsch's Indianapolis headquarters right before the T5-series first launched, so those earbuds will always hold a special place in my heart. But I'm glad to see that Klipsch has addressed one of the few issues our customers had with the originals — audio would drop out from time to time. Outward-facing antennas surround each of the T5 II earbuds, ensuring a stronger wireless connection and extending the range.

Each earbud can make a strong, independent Bluetooth connection to your phone or other audio device. You can grab either earbud to make a quick call, or use both to listen to music. Either way, pairing is hassle-free.

Klipsch streamlined the overall earbud design and added an external antenna for a stronger wireless connection.

Their responsiveness to this feedback parallels the thoughtfulness I saw in the building, and is really what makes Klipsch, well, Klipsch. (Check out the end of that story just to see how much attention to detail went into the cool case design!)

Large collection of soft oval ear tips for patented comfort

Klipsch includes even more of their patented oval ear tips with the T5 II, you now get six different sizes. These soft silicone earbud covers slide in easily to keep the earbuds stable and secure while you move. I find they avoid pressure points and create one of the best seals out there — crucial for getting solid bass response.

I saw firsthand that they didn't just stumble onto this design. Klipsch showed me several tackle-boxes full of rubber-ish molds of actual people's ear canals. In these molds, they noticed an oval cross section in each mold — no matter the size.
