Klipsch Heritage Range of loudspeakers uphold the design legacy of Paul W Klipsch with high-quality, USA made true audiophile loudspeakers.
Klipsch: an American designer and manufacturer of some of the world’s finest loudspeakers. A design heritage which can be traced back to the 1940s and its founder and namesake, Paul W Klipsch.
Paul Klispch’s landmark designs are still held in fierce esteem by an equally fierce and loyal fanbase to this day.
The Klipsch Heritage series signifies and encompasses Paul W Klipsch’s landmark designs in one breathtaking range…
Klipsch Heritage Series
The criteria Klipsch place upon any speaker wishing to part of the Heritage series is simple: Klipsch’s founder, Paul W. Klipsch, has to have played a pivotal role in the design, development and engineering of these incredible loudspeakers.
As a result, every speaker in the Heritage series is a true living piece of audio history and embodies the DNA of one of Hi-Fi’s true innovators. Each speaker in the Klipsch Heritage series is designed and assembled in the U.S.A. with furniture-grade wood veneers.
These are true, world-class loudspeakers, unbeholden to fashion and firmly rooted in the designs and traditions of the late Paul W Klipsch himself.
Klipsch Heritage Heresy III
Originally introduced in the 1950s, The Klipsch Heritage Heresy III is a three-way design, utilising a horn-loaded titanium diaphragm midrange and high-frequency compression drivers along with a direct-radiating 12-inch woofer.
Perhaps the most outstanding feature of the Klipsch Heritage Heresy III is its exceptional sensitivity and efficiency; a 99db sensitivity places it as one of the most sensitive loudspeaker designs ever manufactured.
The Klipsch Heritage Heresy III is an ideal speaker for those looking for a relatively compact loudspeaker with outstanding transparency and the signature Klipsch voicing.
Klipsch Forte III
The Klipsch Forte III was originally introduced in 1985 and quickly established itself as the most popular Klipsch model. It has recently been reintroduced, allowing a new generation to appreciate its unique sonic signature and character.
The Forte III Features a 12″ woofer along with horn-loaded, tractrix mid and high divers; the Forte III also features a 15″ passive sub-bass radiator, which operates on acoustic pressure generated by the woofer for greater bass output and extension.
An amazing speaker for lovers of jazz and acoustic music, the Forte III is a unique addition to the Klipsch Heritage range.
Klipsch Cornwall III
Introduced in 1959, the Klipsch Cornwall III speaker is best viewed as a scaled up version of the Heresy with sensitivity and output approaching the fully horn-loaded models. A three-way design, the Cornwall utilises horn-loaded Midrange and high-frequency compression drivers along with a Direct-radiating 15-inch woofer for powerful, low frequencies.
Klipsch La Scala II
One of Klipsch’s signature designs, the Klipsch La Scala was unveiled in 1963 and named after the Teatro alla Scala in Italy. The La Scala II provides Klipschorn-like performance from a smaller cabinet that does not require corner location.
Utilising the same horn-loaded drivers as the Klipschorn, the La Scala is a fully horn-loaded, 3-way system with a folded-horn 15″ woofer, 2″ midrange and 1″ tweeter compression drivers. A such, the La Scala is capable of extreme output levels with ultra low distortion and astonishing dynamic range.
Klipschorn
The Klipschorn is a true landmark design and the loudspeaker upon which Paul W Klipsch and the company bearing his name, was founded. Launched in 1946, Paul Klipsch’s goal was to enable people, for the first time ever, to experience the power, detail and emotion of a live performance at home.
Designed ideally to be sited in the corners of the room, the Klipschorn utilises a highly efficient horn-loaded tweeter and midrange compression driver along with a folded-horn 15″ woofer delivering powerful, low frequencies.
One of the world’s most efficient loudspeakers, at 108db, the Klipschorn is an audio legend in its own right.
