KPT-MCM-4-T Grand

The first and only fully horn-loaded, THX®-Approved four-way cinema system, the KPT- MCM-4-T Grand affords the ultimate in audio performance for larger exhibition spaces and, in particular, those grand auditoriums fitted with digital sound reproduction equipment. The low–frequency punch is provided by a KPT-MWM dual, 15-inch, high efficiency, horn-loaded woofer enclosure, aided by a separate, single, 12-inch, Tractrix® Horn-loaded mid-bass device, the KPT-XII. High frequencies are effortlessly reproduced by the KPT-402-MF Tractrix Horn and Klipsch K-1133 two-inch exit titanium compression driver. The high output, extended high–frequency horn module, the KPT-Grand-HF-T, provides extra sizzle in more majestic-sized theaters. The MCM Grand is ultra-efficient and, in correct multi-channel configuration, can yield absolutely even sound coverage to every seat in the house.

KPT-745-Q

Following the success of the KPT-MCM-4-T Grand fully horn-loaded, four-way cinema system, Klipsch designed the new, four-way KPT-745-Q to deliver similar movie chills and thrills but from a much shallower cabinet. Less than 24 inches in depth, the KPT- 745-Q system is perfect for larger theater venues with limited space behind the screen. The low-frequency punch is provided by the high efficiency KPT-415-LF quad 15-inch bass unit, aided by a separate, single 12-inch, Tractrix Horn-loaded mid-bass device, the KPT-XII-MB. The KPT-402-MF Tractrix Horn and K-1133 two-inch exit titanium compression driver effortlessly reproduce the system’s mid frequencies. For the added kick that’s required by grandiose locations, the KPT-Grand-HF-T extended high-frequency horn module easily handles the system’s smooth treble reproduction. This powerful system is also available with a mid/high passive crossover for a tri-amp configuration and referred to as the KPT-745-N.

KPT-445-N

Klipsch designed the new, four-way KPT-445 N to deliver the digital soundtracks found on today’s latest films for the small to medium sized auditoriums. This system is designed to be used in a tri-amp configuration. It utilizes the KPT-904 LF double 15” low-frequency system, working in conjunction with the KPT-402 MF. The high frequency section utilizes the proven KPT-904 HF section while the Ultra High Frequency section counts on the K-703 horn and a 1.75” titanium diaphragm to deliver the sizzle to every seat in the house. The combination of High Frequency Tractrix horn and the Ultra High Frequency Tractrix horn is labeled the KPT-445 UHF/HF N.

KPT-Jubilee®535

With auditorium space at a premium, the Jubilee low–frequency device, with its 24- inch depth, is the ultimate space-saving solution. Developed by audio pioneer Paul W. Klipsch in 2001, this dual 12-inch loudspeaker system couples the horn-loaded woofers with the KPT-402-MF mid-bass Tractrix Horn coupled to the Klipsch K-1133 two-inch exit titanium compression driver. The high frequencies are easily handled by the KPT-Grand-HF-T Tractrix Horn.

KPT-535-4-T

This THX-Certified system is an enhanced version of the KPT-535-T, with a KPT-415-LF quad 15-inch direct-radiating bass unit for greater output in large auditoriums. Yet it retains the smaller system’s 24-inch depth, minimizing the valuable theater space consumed by the area behind the screen. The dialogue range is superbly handled by a KPT-402-MF Tractrix Horn fronting a K-1133 two-inch exit titanium compression driver. And, a KPT-Grand-HF-T Tractrix Horn ensures smooth, effortless treble reproduction. This system is also available with a mid/high passive crossover for a bi-amp configuration and is known as the KPT-535-4-N.

KPT-535-T

THX-Approved, the KPT-535-T, with its 24-inch depth, allows for more real estate where it matters––in the auditorium. Embracing the concept of a three–way, direct radiated bass system in a behind-the-screen application, the KPT-535-T utilizes the KPT-904-LF double, 15-inch low–frequency system. Reproducing the critical dialogue range is the KPT-402-MF mid-bass Tractrix Horn coupled to the Klipsch K-1133 two- inch exit titanium compression driver. The high frequencies are easily handled by the KPT-Grand-HF-T Tractrix Horn. This system is also available with a mid/high passive crossover for a bi-amp configuration and is known as the KPT-535-N.

Loudspeaker System specifications

Klipsch loudspeakers are renowned for their high-quality sound reproduction and innovative design, appealing to audiophiles and casual listeners alike. Founded by audio pioneer Paul W. Klipsch in 1946, the brand has built a legacy focused on delivering exceptional performance through meticulous engineering and craftsmanship.

One of the main features of Klipsch loudspeaker systems is their unique horn-loaded technology. This design enhances audio efficiency by projecting sound more effectively than conventional drivers. The horns contribute to a wider dispersion of sound, allowing listeners to experience consistent audio quality, whether they are sitting in front of the speakers or off to the side. This makes Klipsch speakers ideal for larger rooms and open spaces, where achieving an immersive sound experience can be challenging.

Klipsch speakers also utilize high-sensitivity drivers, which means they produce more sound output with less power compared to conventional speakers. This efficiency allows users to enjoy dynamic sound even at lower volume levels. Many Klipsch models are built with premium materials, such as compression drivers made of titanium, which enhance durability and sonic clarity.

In addition to their audio prowess, Klipsch loudspeakers boast a distinctive aesthetic appeal. Many models feature a classic wood veneer finish combined with the striking black or copper accents of their drivers. This elegant design makes them a perfect addition to both home theaters and more understated living environments.

To further enhance the listening experience, Klipsch incorporates advanced technologies such as Dolby Atmos and wireless connectivity options in their modern systems. Klipsch's Reference Wireless series allows users to stream high-resolution audio seamlessly, eliminating clutter caused by wires and providing flexibility in speaker placement.

Surround sound systems like the Klipsch Reference Premiere series offer users an enveloping audio experience, ideal for movies, music, and gaming. These systems often integrate multiple speaker configurations, including floor-standing speakers, bookshelf models, and subwoofers, all working in harmony to deliver powerful and precise sound.

In summary, Klipsch loudspeaker systems combine horn-loaded technology, high-sensitivity drivers, and stylish designs to create an outstanding auditory experience. Whether in a sophisticated home theater or a simple living room setup, Klipsch speakers are designed for those who seek a premium sound experience without compromise. With a legacy that spans decades, Klipsch continues to innovate, ensuring their systems remain at the forefront of audio technology.
