For over 60 years, our engineers have sought the ultimate: a loudspeaker that could reproduce recorded music with all the passion of a live performance. The Palladium™ Series approaches aural perfection, while making a visual statement that is every bit as elegant and passionate as the sound.

The Palladium Series represents the epitome of loudspeaker technology, with remarkable clarity throughout the dynamic range and bold styling. Today, Klipsch Group, Inc. is a global force, and this loudspeaker range reflects that leadership status; design and engineering teams from the United States collaborated with col- leagues from Germany and China to plan and execute the Palladium project.

In designing the Palladium cabinetry, we first considered the Klipsch heritage and unique approach to acoustic design. Trends in home interior and furniture were also factored in, as was the current audio market landscape.

The result is a speaker range that flawlessly melds classic Klipsch® audio with the latest in home furniture trends. The striking design hints at the power and performance inside, while maintaining a high degree of sophistication and beauty. More importantly, the arched shape of the loudspeaker actu- ally contributes to its remarkable sound by breaking up standing waves at higher frequencies.

Power. Detail. Emotion. Combined, these qualities are the embodiment of our core philosophy. And all are expressed—beautifully—in the brilliant Palladium loudspeakers. We invite you, our customer, to share with us the pride of ownership in this extraordinary product for many gratifying years.
