The Klipschorn, a true engineering breakthrough, started his company in 1946 and revolutionized the way people listened to recorded music. Paul applied the same no-compromise principles of speaker design to our Cinema Speaker line when...

Open the catalog to page 8The use of horn-loaded drivers, in general, is perfect for professional cinema applications. First, horns act as acoustic impedance matching devices. A solid driver diaphragm has a much different acoustic impedance than air, making the transfer of sound from that diaphragm directly to air very inefficient. Properly add a horn to that driver and the area that driver is radiating into is now constricted by the horn. This constriction brings the impedance of the air much closer to the impedance of the driver, allowing the driver to couple much better to the air, significantly increasing the...
