The Four Laws of the Klipsch Universe

Since 1946, company founder Paul W. Klipsch has believed that four principles form the foundation of great sound. These four design principles – high efficiency and low distortion, controlled directivity, flat frequency response and wide dynamic range – have always been and always will be the foundation of our impressively powerful and accurate sound.
