help Klipsch Klipschorn FAQ

Why do Klipsch Klipschorn speakers need to be placed in the corner of a room?

The Klipschorn is a legendary corner horn design, meaning it actually uses the walls of your room as an acoustic extension of the speaker horn. Placing them in a corner allows the massive woofer to efficiently propagate low frequencies down to 30Hz.

When was the original Klipsch Klipschorn invented?

The Klipschorn was designed by audio pioneer Paul W. Klipsch and first patented in 1946. It is one of the longest continuously produced speaker models in audio history.

What is the sensitivity rating of a Klipsch Klipschorn?

The Klipschorn boasts an incredibly high sensitivity rating of around 105 decibels. This high efficiency means it can be driven to deafening volumes using a very low-powered, 2-watt tube amplifier.

Do vintage Klipschorns sound harsh or bright?

Because they use large horn-loaded tweeters, older vintage Klipschorns have a reputation for sounding bright or fatiguing on high-frequency tracks. However, upgrading the internal crossovers and modern titanium diaphragms can significantly smooth out the treble response.
