Electronic House: Klipsch announced three new home theater packages. All three are 5.1 systems, which include left, center and right front channels, two surrounds, and one powered subwoofer.
The HD Theater 1000 has five identical speakers, each with dual 2.5-inch fiber composite woofers and a MicroTractrix Horn-loaded 0.75-inch aluminum dome tweeter. Standing 8.6 inches tall, each one includes a stand or can be wall mounted.
Nestled in the middle of the line is the HD Theater 500. Each of the front and rear speakers has a 2.5-inch IMG woofer and a MicroTractrix Horn-loaded 0.75-inch aluminum dome tweeter inside. The center channel, however, has dual woofers.
Last, but not least, is the HD Theater 300. That setup’s main and surround speakers include a 2.5-inch IMG woofer and a 0.75-inch MicroTractrix Horn-loaded textile tweeter in each. The center channel is almost the same, except it’s magnetically shielded.
