Klipsch Gallery G-17 Air soundbar review

Although the 7.5-pound G-17 can be wall-mounted, the glass stand was more than adequate for our needs -- plus, it makes it look sort of like a giant Kinect. Gloves still on, we lined up the base's bracket with the speaker's back and after a few uneven attempts, attached both with the included screws, which then remain hidden by a rubber insert. While we wish it was a bit easier to bolt together, the base stays in place with a firm grip and extremely secure overall fit. From there it was a matter of finding a listening area to set it down on, plug it in to the wall and to grab a look at it fully assembled while up AirPlay. We managed the whole process without a single smudge to the unit, so suffice it to say, we're fans of the Mickey's. And that cloth? Turns out that it's a speaker grill (doh), which magnetically attaches to the back top and bottom of the speaker with a snug fit if you'd prefer a simpler look.
