"Other than some earbuds, Klipsch hasn't made any headphones in a number of years. But the company is teasing a big return for 2026 at CES. Klipsch announced its Atlas series, a family of high-end hi-fi headphones that pick up where its Heritage headphone line left off. The HP-1 are a wireless over-ear model with active noise canceling and a lightweight body for long listening sessions. Support for spatial audio formats is also planned."
"The HP-2 are closed-back with a bass-forward sound profile. If you want something with a more open soundstage and a more neutral profile, it's likely the flagship HP-3 that you'll be eyeing. They feature a semi-open-back design and a thickly cushioned headband with perforated Alcantara ear cups for breathability. The HP-3 even come with their own dedicated headphone stand."
"All three models look a lot like their Heritage HP forebears. We'll have to wait until they start shipping in the summer to know if they sound as good, and unfortunately, Klipsch hasn't shared pricing yet."
Klipsch is returning to the headphone market in 2026 with the Atlas series, a family of high-end hi-fi models that continue the company's Heritage headphone line. The Atlas lineup includes three models: HP-1, HP-2, and HP-3. The HP-1 is a wireless over-ear headphone with active noise canceling, a lightweight body for long listening sessions, and planned support for spatial audio formats. The HP-2 is closed-back with a bass-forward sound profile. The HP-3 is positioned as the flagship with a semi-open-back design, a thickly cushioned headband, perforated Alcantara ear cups for breathability, and its own dedicated headphone stand. All three models visually resemble Klipsch's Heritage HP series, and shipping is expected in summer with pricing not yet announced.
