Product Description
Audio pioneer and company founder Paul W. Klipsch launched the three-way Klipschorn loudspeaker in 1948 to enable people, for the first time ever, to experience the power, detail and emotion of a live performance at home. Commonly called a corner-horn speaker, the remarkably uncommon Klipschorn includes a highly efficient horn loaded tweeter and midrange compression driver. Its patented folded-horn woofer delivers the low frequencies. Considered a watershed industry event, the introduction of the Klipschorn set the standard for high sensitivity, wide dynamic range, low distortion, smooth frequency response and powerful bass. These principles, which drive the creation of every single Klipsch loudspeaker, are what make the Klipschorn as sought after today as it was decades ago. As the only speaker in the world to be in continuous production for nearly 60 years, the Klipschorn has remained relatively unchanged since its inception. In 2005, the company made some minor cosmetic and functional revisions to this legendary speaker, including the elimination of the inset collar, or spacer, between the upper and lower cabinets for a cleaner aesthetic appearance. A horizontal wall seal was added to improve the low frequency horn's connection to the wall. Available in a cherry, walnut or black ash wood veneer finish, the Klipschorn reflects a level of high-quality workmanship that will never go out of style.

Great Speaker for the right room June 12, 2007
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is a monster of speaker, and I mean that in many ways. First of course is its size, and second of course is its sound, and lastly is its history! This speaker has been in production for 60 years and it as respected today as when it first came out of Hope AK so many years ago.
The sound is open, powerful, subtle, moving... in a word...involving. And this can be accomplished with very little power as the speaker is very efficient. If you want loud... look no futher. If you want concert realism look no further...if you have a small room and cant utilize the corners...look elsewhere... sounds best with a very clean signal, so amp and source choice is important, but amp power is not so important.
Great for Rock, home theater, and dance music, and very good for everything else. I love to hear Pink Floyd through them as they really bring out the dynamics and energy of the music.
The speakers hold up well over time and you can still get parts to rebuild them.
