Audio pioneer and company founder Paul W.
Klipsch launched the Klipschorn loudspeaker
in 1946 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 15" woofer delivers powerful low
frequencies.
Considered a watershed industry event, the
introduction of the Klipschorn set the
standard for high sensitivity, wide dynamic
range, low distortion and smooth frequency
response. These principles, which drive the
creation of every single Klipsch loudspeaker,
are what make the Klipschorn as sought after
today as it was six decades ago.
As the only speaker in the world to be in
continuous production for 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 response accuracy.
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.
