THX Ultra2 Architectural Speakers
Your new Klipsch THX Ultra2 architectural speakers have been designed to deliver great sound while remaining unobtrusive wherever
you install them.
The KL-7502-THX is designed for Left, Center or Right channel
use or wherever a monopole speaker is called for, such as surround
back channels in Select configurations. The result is a flush-mount
speaker that creates a powerful statement in any application.
The KS-7502-THX features a patent-pending horn array, consisting
of two Tractrix® Horn-loaded tweeters. It is designed specifically
for surround use in home theater applications. The result is a
flush-mount speaker that creates enveloping ambient sound fields
and localizing specific surround effects through the use of Klipsch’s
proprietary Wide Dispersion Surround Technology (WDST™). The
careful alignment of the two controlled-directivity Tractrix Horn tweeters, angled opposite one another, yields an incredibly wide dispersion
pattern from a flush-mount design.
Minimum Tools Required for Installation
#2 Phillips Screwdriver
Wire strippers
Stud finder
Saw
In-Ceiling Speaker Placement
Designed to function in any standard, Klipsch THX U ltra2 in-ceiling
speakers are engineered for years of performance. Minimum
construction requirements call for dry wall or other mounting surfaces
to be at least 1/2" thick.
(See F igure s 1 and 2)

To maximize per formance, install the K L-7 50 2- TH X equally spaced to
either side of the video display. When being used as a center channel,
please locate the speaker as close to the video display as is practical.
The KS-7502-THX should be installed to either side of the listening
position at an equal distance from the listener whenever possible. You
may also install them behind the listening position and achieve good results.
Figure 1
THX Ultra2 7.1 surround systems utilize a surround back channel in
addition to the traditional side surrounds. W hen configuring such a
system it is suggested to use K L-7 50 2 speakers in the surround back
location.

4. Insert the speaker assembly into the opening and attach by
tightening the Phillips screws (see illustration). The frame’s
“dogs” will swivel out and “sandwich” the ceiling and frame
together as they are tightened. If you use a power tool to
tighten these screws, please use a low torque setting. Failure
to do so could result in damage to your speaker (see Figure 3 )
Figure 3
5. At this point, you may paint the speaker grille before attaching it
to the speaker. Klipsch speakers and grilles are designed to
accept most types of paint. Use the supplied clear paint shield to
protect the speaker baffle and drivers when painting the bezel of
the speaker. Care should be taken to avoid excessive paint
build-up in the grille perforations. Please remove the scrim
material attached to inner surface of the grille by carefully
peeling it out prior to painting. Reinstall scrim after the paint on
the grille is dry.
6. Press the grille into place.
Speaker Installation
(for New C onstruction, skip to step #3)
1. Cut the appropriate size opening in the ceiling using the template
provided. If the template is not available, cutout dimensions are
provided on the Klipsch website, at www.klipsch.com. Sizes
listed are minimum. If accuracy of cut cannot be achieved,
you may add 1/4” to the dimension. Be careful not to cut
through any existing wiring or plumbing. Avoid compromising
any fire stops between studs.
2. Run speaker wiring (18 gauge minimum) to the openings. Be
sure to comply with all building codes in your area.
3. Attach the wire to the speaker using the wire’s color coding or
markings as a guide to maintain proper polarit y.
