Discovering greater aural heights through Klipsch Speakers

06/18/2007

Sound quality is the be all and end all of speaker systems. It’s the main reason audiophiles tenaciously scour the earth to find one that will give them a satiny smooth and organic, amazingly life-like sound. It’s also likely why the brand Klipsch (pronounced as “klipsh”) has dominated the high-performance loudspeaker, entertainment and multimedia audio market in recent years.

For anyone who prizes the ability of speakers to produce a full, dynamic range of sound, Klipsch offers high-performance audio solutions for every application and lifestyle. Klipsch is in fact the only brand in the world that carries THX certification for four of their products: professional cinema, home theatre, multimedia and electronics. From state-of-the-art home theatre systems to portable electronic speakers, the brand has made a name for itself across America and Europe by spoiling audiophiles with its ability to create effortlessly rich, high-quality audio.

Even their iGroove HG iPod speakers (P 12,990) provides the famed clear and crisp sound quality that Klipsch is known for in an all-in-one-design. Do not let the sleek and portable size fool you into thinking that you will be cheated from the natural, unrestrained sound quality that is the Klipsch standard. Klipsch iGroove HG is perfectly capable of blasting the pounding drums, chugging bases and whooping horns of your music collection. The iGroove gets its dynamic soul courtesy of its dual, 2.5-inch woofers, premium crossover networks and dual 1-inch MicroTractrix Horn-loaded tweeters, making it the only speaker system in this category that utilizes horn technology, which audiophiles applaud for its ability to produce genuine, lifelike sound.

In addition to easily letting you rock out at home, at work or on the go, iGroove is also very easy to operate. Plug it in, pop in your iPod and hit play. It also includes an IR handheld remote that handles full system control and unlike other iPod speaker systems, the iGroove works with almost all mp3 player brands, as well as any gadget that has an audio output or jack.

What about watching movies or listening to your playlist on your computer or laptop? Video quality may be perfect, but high-fidelity sound from basic computer speakers is unlikely, in which case, your best bet would be to hook your machines to Klipsch multimedia speakers to ensure exceptional sound quality.

Try the Klipsch ProMedia GMX A-2.1 (P 8,990), a three-piece multimedia speaker system that delivers dynamic sound from PCs, CD, DVD and mp3 players, game consoles, laptops and television sets, or the Klipsch ProMedia Ultra 2.0 (P 5,990), which is specifically designed to deliver full-range sound quality from the simplicity and portability of a two-speaker set up that you can hook up to any audio source as well. The classic Klipsch sound — the horn tweeter dispersion and clarity — is preserved in the small and stylish design, giving you the ultimate sound experience.

Klipsch products are distributed in more than 700 channels of resellers nationwide by Microwarehouse Inc., the leading distributor of networking, mobile and digital lifestyle devices.
