1999 Klipsch Synergy Series Incorporates Latest Technologies And Innovations For Exceptional Home Theatre Performance
Klipsch, LLC, a leading manufacturer of loudspeakers for professional and home theatre applications, has created a new family of high performance audio products utilizing matching drivers and TractrixÆ Hems in each speaker to generate a truly remarkable home theater experience - the 1999 Klipsch Synergyô Series. According to Senior Product Development Manager Mark Kauffman, the TractrixÆ Horns are the defining feature of the new Synergy products. ""From the SP-1 powered tower to the SF-1 and SF-2 towers and from the SC-1 center channel to the SS-1 surrounds, the new Synergy Series family provides smoother response and a more consistent coverage pattern across the board because of the use of Tractrix Horns in every speaker,"" Kauffman said. ""We've taken the Synergy name to heart and created a product family that works together to produce dramatic sound, greater than the output of the individual speakers."" The new K-101 5.25"" square Tractrix Horn has a consistent 90? x 60? coverage pattern and delivers realistic spatial imaging, smooth, neutral musical reproduction and minimal sonic coloration. In addition to the matching horns and drivers, which optimize output of the latest 5.1 digital formats, the surrounds use Klipsch's exclusive Wide Dispersion Surround Technologyô(WDST). WDST enhances rear channel performance because it gives the surrounds the capability to produce the diffuse effects needed for envelopment as well as the direct sounds necessary for good localization. The optimal 180"" sound pattern of the surrounds makes the new Synergy Series less sensitive to room placement, allowing greater flexibility in a home theater setup. The new Synergy line incorporates top loudspeaker technologies such as: -aluminum diaphragms -injected graphite cones -SantopreneÆ surrounds -cast polymer frames -low diffraction baffle and grille design -high-definition crossover networks - phase-aligned drivers -internally braced medium density fiberboard (MDF) enclosures -Metal Oxide Semiconductor-Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET) amplifiers All of the 1999 Synergy Series models feature cloth grilles, with the floorstanding models distinguished by a ""floating grille"" design. This suspended grille works to minimize sonic reflections - a feature that benefits form as well as function. The new small footprint makes the 1999 Synergy Series Klipsch's slimmest floorstanding products ever, yet they still deliver the traditional ""big"" Klipsch sound. The new SP-1 powered tower is the heart of this high-performance home theatre system matched with the SC-I center channel and SS-I surrounds. The SF-I powered tower features a built-in 8"" subwoofer driven by a high current amplifier delivering rich deep bass. The mid-bass driver and K-101 square TractrixÆ Horn provide remarkable detail and clarity. The SF-1 and SF-2 floorstanding models also provide wide, deep soundstaging and imaging, offering consumers the sound output they desire with options in size and cost. The new SC-1 center channel and SS-I surrounds redefine system integration by utilizing the matching horns and drivers to deliver a seamless, coherent sound field for optimal performance of 5.1 digital formats.
