60+ YEARS OF SOUND

Unveiled in 1963, the Klipsch La Scala fits classic Klipschorn magic into a smaller
but no less mighty package. This legendary loudspeaker is the modern update to
its storied older brother, offering contemporary sound and looks while adhering
firmly to the core principles Paul W. Klipsch developed more than a decade and a
half earlier.

THREE-WAY, HORN-LOADED EFFICIENCY

La Scala’s three-way, horn-loaded system delivers exceptional efficiency. For
the AL6, 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 new, 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 AL5 models. The larger compression area increases sound pressure to
the horn’s throat for more voluptuous volume.

SPREAD THE SOUNDSTAGE WITH MUMPS AND TRACTRIX TECHNOLOGY

The AL6 gets the Tractrix treatment. The new K-406M patented Tractrix midrange
horn features a shorter, 2” throat for unparalleled presence and precision. Mumps
technology improves coverage, adding small contours to help maintain frequency
response to the horn’s edge.

BRING OUT THE BASS

For the first time, La Scala upgrades to a patented horn loaded, vented system,
maximizing efficiency, extending output, and lowering distortion – realizing the
benefits of both a horn-loaded system and a bass reflex system. The K-281 12”
woofer with folded horn, sits comfortably in a new enclosure, producing richer
and more robust bass from any room placement.
