The KS-7800-THX is also capable of delivering the same high-output, low distortion signature sound as its traditional enclosure counterpart, the KS-525-THX. It employs an 8-inch aluminum woofer and a patented horn array, consisting of two vertically-stacked Tractrix Horn-loaded tweeters.
In order to create enveloping sound fields and precise localization of individual effects, this speaker also utilizes Klipsch's Wide Dispersion Surround Technology™. Also referred to as WDST, this no-compromise approach gives the KS-7800-THX much more placement flexibility than conventional designs.
Featuring an integrated back box enclosure, the KS-7800-THX's response is both predictable and repeatable. Because this enclosure fits easily within the loudspeaker's footprint, the KS-7800-THX can be installed into new or existing construction.
Combine this dynamic loudspeaker with Klipsch's KL-7800-THX LCR speaker, KW-120-THX subwoofer and KA-1000-THX subwoofer amplifier to create a variety of THX Ultra2 in-wall system configurations. The KS-7800-THX can also be mixed and matched with the Klipsch THX Ultra2 traditional box products.
