WHERE IT ALL BEGAN

For over 75 years, the Klipschorn has defined high-efficiency home audio. The
first Klipsch speaker ever produced, and in continuous production longer than
any other, the Klipschorn is the legendary manifestation of Paul W. Klipsch’s
approach to sound. Designed to bring the power, detail, and emotion of live music
of the concert hall into the living room, the iconic Klipschorn is experiencing a
renaissance in the modern era.

OPTIONAL HERITAGE ACTIVE CROSSOVER EXTENDS PERFORMANCE

The AK7 was meticulously engineered with an optional Heritage Active Crossover
in mind, which has been tuned specifically for Klipschorn speakers by master
acoustician and PWK protégé Roy Delgado. Trickle-down technology from the
heralded Jubilee floorstanding speakers, the Heritage Active Crossover aligns time
and phase while boosting frequencies and balancing EQ for a flat, color-free response.

REDESIGNED INPUT / OUTPUT PANEL

To accommodate the optional Heritage Active Crossover and provide the audience
with more options, with a modified  I/O panel. It now includes passive and active inputs and a passive output, so switching between setups is easy. Moving
the panel to the speaker’s back for a cleaner look from almost any angle. 

THREE-WAY, HORN-LOADED EFFICIENCY

The Klipschorn’s three-way, horn-loaded system delivers exceptional efficiency.
For the AK7,  coupling each driver to a precisely measured horn and optimize it
for one of three pass-bands. This design generates greater acoustic power with
less wattage, producing crystal clear sound with minimal distortion across the
frequency spectrum.

EXTENDED PHASE PLUG FOR HEAVENLY HIGHS

Pairing the K-771 compression driver with a patented extended phase plug
to prevent cancellations and equalize wavelengths for cleaner dispersion. That
means you get more coverage and clarity than ever before.

3” COMPRESSION DRIVER PUMPS UP THE POWER

The new midrange K-1133-HP compression driver adds a full inch to the drivers on
previous AK6 models. The larger compression area increases sound pressure to
the horn’s throat for more voluptuous volume.
