A 5.1 Surround System for Everyone’s Budget

Klipsch takes a no-nonsense approach with its most affordable home theater system ever. The HD Theater 300 delivers with its front, center, surround and subwoofer speakers. Each speaker can be wall mounted with an adjustable bracket. The center channel includes a base with a range of motion of 45 degrees. The system’s subwoofer is also quite versatile, as it includes traditional volume, crossover and phase controls,
so you can customize the level of bass for your room.  The 6.5 inch driver of the subwoofer has the ability to deliver heart-thumbing effects. The system will capture the sheer dynamics of every film.

Each main and surround speakers are comprised of a 2.5-inch IMG woofer and a MicroTractrix Horn-loaded 0.75-inch textile tweeter. The center channel has the same setup except the drivers are magnetically shielded so it will not interfere with the TV picture.

The F-30 feature dual 8” woofers for tight musical bass. It has a 1” dynamic tweeter complete with Tractrix® Horn technology which produces a unique combination of precision, clarity and effortless power.

KLIPSCH BELIEVES FOUR PRINCIPLES TO BE THE FOUNDATION FOR GREAT SOUND:

• HIGH EFFICIENCY: Every Klipsch speaker is horn-loaded because the horn shape is perfect for accurate and dynamic sound transmission. Greater efficiency means lower distortion which means maximum realism.

• DYNAMIC RANGE: Klipsch horn technology reproduces the softest sounds with remarkable clarity and detail and the loudest sounds with no harshness or distortion. That’s what’s known as the best of both worlds.

• CONTROLLED DIRECTIVITY: Unique Klipsch horn technology means speakers that more accurately direct sound. The result is a more lifelike soundstage and way more “Whoa – Did you hear that?”

• FLAT FREQUENCY RESPONSE: We believe in delivering exactly the sound artists intend. Hence, Klipsch’s stunningly accurate speakers – with no unnatural highs, mids or lows.

Other features included on Klipch F-30s are dual binding posts, front firing port, black ash vinyl finish to compliment any décor.

The Image X5 Shoots for Comfort and Impressive Sound

Klipsch offers the tiny, lightweight Image X5 Noise-Isolating Earphones that features a patent-pending ear tip. First things first, while the fit of the ear tips are vital, the chore of getting the things to transmit high quality sound should be the first order of business. Klipsch has 60 years of audio expertise. Their knowledge is now being applied to premium headphones. The Klipsch website describes the Image X5 Headphones sound reproduction this way:

The Image X5 is a balanced full-range armature driver design with a tuned bass-reflex system for crisp, clear highs and deep, impressive lows. In other words, you can experience rich, enveloping sound performances that virtually put you on stage with your favorite artists.

On to the ear tips. It is important that the headphones fit properly in the ear canal. Besides the comfort factor, a good seal provided by the ear tips enhances the overall sound quality and permits noise isolation and lower listening levels. The Image X5 Headphones features patent-pending oval ear buds designed to be almost unnoticeable by the user by making them flexible, light and narrow. It is true that headphones may become uncomfortable pretty quickly. It looks like Klipsch is making a commitment to making the headphones experience even more pleasurable.
