Questions about this item

What does my phone need to pair with the Austin speaker?

The speaker uses Bluetooth 5.3 for wireless pairing; any device with Bluetooth 5.3 or earlier that supports A2DP streaming will connect.

Can I charge the speaker with my existing USB-C laptop charger?

The speaker accepts 18 W USB-C charging, so a standard USB-C power adapter or laptop port that delivers up to 18 W will recharge the battery.

How do I confirm the speaker is playing at its best after setup?

Open the Klipsch Connect app, run the built-in sound check and verify the EQ curve shows balanced bass, mid-range and treble while the firmware version reads current.
