Two-Way Cinema Surround Loudspeaker
KPT-8001
SPECIFICATIONS
The Klipsch THX®-Certified KPT-8001 twoway cinema surround loudspeaker system
brings an exciting three-dimensional sound
field to small- and medium-sized venues. It
offers high efficiency
and standard SMPTE/ISO 2696 X-curve
de-emphasis.
The KPT-8001 is able to deliver a lesson in
you-are-there realism by employing a single
high-output 8-inch woofer and a highfrequency compression driver coupled to a
100-degree by 100-degree Tractrix
This proprietary horn-loaded technology
reproduces accurately focused midrange and
high frequencies and maintains a pleasing open
and neutral character without tonal coloration.
Because the horn delivers an optimal
dispersion pattern, the direct to reflected
energy ratio is high in the listening area,
creating a large soundstage with welldefined imaging.
The system’s shallow enclosure features a
15-degree down-firing angle baffle and
pre-drilled holes that fit industry-standard
mounting brackets for fast, easy and secure
installation. The 100 watt continuous power
rating and built-in high-frequency protection
circuit provide absolute reliability.
