Klipschorn 80th Anniversary Limited Edition

This limited edition revisits the first patented horn design by Paul W. Klipsch. It is a two-way, fully horn-loaded speaker: a new K-5-K high-frequency horn is paired with a high-powered compression driver, while the low-frequency cabinet holds an eight-foot folded bass horn, as in every Klipschorn. The design is highly sensitive and efficient, and an active crossover is included to give extra control over the sound.

The cabinets are finished in real wood veneer with book-matched grain, brass inlays and a sandcast aluminium horn, in a mid-century modern style. Each pair is built by hand in Hope, Arkansas.

A limited-run 180g vinyl pressing of Paul W. Klipsch's early 1950s KlipschTape stereo demonstration recordings is supplied with the speakers. The model falls under the 10-year warranty that covers current and future generation Heritage Classic speakers. A downloadable spec sheet and a Klipschorn history document are offered by the maker.
