LightSpeaker®5 Overview
This wireless LightSpeaker®5
is intended to install into any
home easily and without any
expensive and complicated
wiring. You can install a unit
in your home in a few minutes
and not have to worry about
repairing walls or ceilings. Plus
there is no climbing into attics
or wriggling into crawl spaces!
LightSpeakers®deliver great sound
into any room in your house, using your existing wiring
and your recessed lighting fixtures. The LightSpeaker®5
installs in a standard 5” or 6” recessed ceiling light fixture
common in most homes. It will replace a standard light
bulb (R-30 or R-40). This unique patented LightSpeaker®
has full bandwidth audio and “green” lighting together in
one small package.
Your part of what makes this possible is the use of a 10W
LED to provide the equivalent light bright enough to replace
a 60W incandescent bulb while using 80% less power
than the light bulb it replaced. Consider also that you may
never have to replace this light; an operating life of 25,000
to 40,000 hours means that with average use this light
should easily last 15 to 25 years.
Remote and transmitter sold separately.

Your system can use up to 8 LightSpeakers®to provide
audio and lighting to your entire home. You can even
divide your home into two unique areas where different
music sources, sound and lighting control allow you to add
music with integrated “green” lighting to places you only
dreamed of having it before.
There’s no wiring and no big (or small) boxes. The
wireless transmitter can be centrally located which will
provide audio and, together with the remote, allow you to
control your LightSpeakers®from anywhere in your home
To expand your system, additional LightSpeakers®or
wireless RockSpeakers are available at www.klipsch.com.
This incredible patented system provides even greater
flexibility to you as the owner; since you can take this
system with you if you move; and when you do, it leaves no
trace (holes that need to be covered) that the system was
ever installed and used.

Instruction Manual
Step 1:
Decide which light will be replaced with
LightSpeaker®5.
Your Klipsch
®
LightSpeaker®5 has been specifically
designed to cover large areas, however if the location of
your fixtures allow you to do so, you should think about
how you use your room and where you are likely to spend
most of your time. Then choose the fixtures that are most
evenly spaced to your preferred listening position.
A) Turn off the circuit breaker and light switch, to the
bulb you intend to replace with a LightSpeaker®5.
B) Remove the existing light
bulb.
Step 2: Check your connector
type. Your Klipsch®LightSpeaker®
5 is designed to fit into a standard
Edison connector. It will not fit any
other type connector.
WARNING!
Turn off circuit breakers
to all lighting fixtures you
are working on!
STOP!
Check your
connector!

Step 3: Test fit your LightSpeaker®5.
Your LightSpeaker®5 is designed to fit directly into most
5“ (R30) and 6“ (R40) down light cans by simply removing
the existing light and, in the same manner as a light bulb,
re-installing your LightSpeaker®5 in its place. You may
simply test fit your LightSpeaker®5.
If your LightSpeaker®5 fits directly into your recessed
lighting fixture without any modifications you can skip
forward to Step 6.
If your LightSpeaker®5 does not fit either because the
trim ring/reflector opening is too small or the lighting
fixture is not set deep enough, please go to www.klipsch.
com or refer to your Complete System Manual.
Step 4: Installing the trim ring.
Your LightSpeaker®5 comes with their own integrated
trim ring. There are two different sizes. Choose
your trim ring based on either A or B below and place
the LightSpeaker®5 trim ring over the back of the
LightSpeaker®5. Be sure the finished side is facing out.
Upon completion of the install, this trim ring should fit
snuggly and uniformly to the ceiling and should also seat
properly around the entire edge of your LightSpeaker®5.
A) The thicker trim ring will be used when your
LightSpeaker®5 is installed into a 6” lighting fixture.
