You’ve likely heard the name, “Klipsch Reference Speakers” before now. That’s because these speakers are some of the most lauded in the company's history. Each time a new iteration of the Reference home theatre speaker series comes out, you'll see they've always been able to improve on their respective predecessors.
The 2022 Klipsch Reference line of loudspeakers feature premium technical and industrial design characteristics, inspired by more expensive Klipsch models, but at a price that belies the sound they deliver. Tuned to work both for Hi-Fi and Home Cinema applications, Klipsch Reference Base speakers rock the house like nothing else thanks to some clever technology.
The 2022 Reference speaker range adheres to Klipsch's four core principles of speaker design: Controlled Directivity, High Efficiency with Low Distortion, Wide Dynamic Range and Flat Frequency Response. Yet they are also designed from the ground-up to take pride of place in your listening room by employing the latest technologies and boasting a stylish design like no other.
The updated 90 x 90 edge-to-edge horn design boasts increased outer horn dimensions to deliver more power and emotion to your music and movies. Bigger definitely means better, with directivity control over a larger bandwidth of frequencies, resulting in a more accurate sound stage.
A hallmark of Klipsch speakers, the exclusive Linear Travel Suspension (LTS) high-frequency driver with Kapton Suspension minimises distortion for more detailed performances. Aluminium is used in the tweeter assembly as it's extremely light and rigid, allowing it to achieve high efficiency and ask for less power from your amplifier.
The new Spun-Copper Thermoformed Crystal Polymer (TCP) woofers employed across the Reference Series minimise resonance for more true-to-life sound. Based on trickle-down technology from the Reference Premiere series, the woofer cones have a steeper angle for a smoother response at higher frequencies and better crossover integration for improved accuracy and transparency.
Klipsch Reference Series Subwoofers offer a stylish aesthetic with unrivalled durability that allows them to look at home in any living environment. With reinforced MDF construction and an all-new bracing design, they're in the perfect housing for delivering deep, powerful bass response. They're also easy to install with RCA and LFE inputs, and adjustable low-pass crossover and phase control for seamless integration with the rest of your system.
The Reference Series all feature sturdy MDF chassis and first-class aesthetics, but some models across the range also benefit from some extra enhancements. The floorstanding stereo speakers for example feature refined Dolby Atmos® connections for when you want to add a speaker topper, while all floorstanders also boast rear-firing Tractrix® ports.
