ABOUT YOUR KLIPSCH PURCHASE

Your new Klipsch THX Ultra2 architectural speakers have been designed to deliver great sound while remaining unobtrusive wherever you install them.

The KL-7800-THX is designed for Left, Center or Right channel use or wherever a monopole speaker is called for, such as surround back channels in Ultra2 configurations. The result is a flush-mount speaker that creates a powerful statement in any application.

The KS-7800-THX features a patent-pending horn array, consisting of two vertically stacked Tractrix® Horn-loaded tweet- ers. It is designed specifically for surround use in home theater applications. The result is a flush-mount speaker that creates enveloping ambient sound fields and localizing specific surround effects through the use of Klipsch’s proprietary Wide Dispersion Surround Technology (WDST™). The careful alignment of the two controlled-directivity Tractrix Horn tweeters, angled opposite one another, yields an incredibly wide dispersion pattern from a flush-mount design.

In-Wall Speaker Placement (Refer to Figures 1 and 2) Designed to function in any standard wall, Klipsch THX Ultra2 in-wall speakers are engineered for years of performance. Minimum construction requirements call for drywall or other mounting surfaces to be at least 1/2" thick.

To maximize performance, install the KL-7800-THX equally spaced to either side of the video display. When being used as a center channel, please locate this speaker as close to the video display as is practical.
