　The main features of the THX Cinema Series are as follows

Tractrix horn

　A Klipsch proprietary technology, introduced in all product categories except headphones and subwoofers, the Tractrix curved structure reproduces the sound spread from the horn in the most efficient manner, delivering a wide, even, and natural sound. It also features a flat frequency response, a wide directivity that covers a wide area, and powerful and accurate sound reproduction.

Titanium diaphragm compression driver

　Compression driver with a lightweight and strong titanium diaphragm is used. This minimizes distortion while enhancing resolution and reproducing even the smallest of details. Neodymium magnets are used.

CERAMETALLIC cone woofer

　The proprietary woofer unit using ceramic cones is lightweight and strong, and reproduces powerful bass while minimizing sound distortion.

Bass-reflex enclosure (THX-5002-L, THX-5002-S)

　Flares are installed inside to effectively reduce air turbulence flowing into the ports. Port noise is reduced, resulting in cleaner and more powerful bass reproduction.

Diffusion type TRACTRIX horn (THX-8000-S, THX-5002-S)

　Double 2.5cm titanium dome tweeters are mounted to diffuse the surround effect over a wide area. It reproduces an enveloping surround space while maintaining the sense of power typical of horns.

Variable coverage technology "VCT" (THX-5002-L)

　VCT realizes uniform diffusion and low distortion. The VCT technology provides uniform diffusion and low distortion for stable localized sound reproduction at all viewing positions.

Magnet Mounting and Paintable Speaker Grill

　Speaker grilles are attached with magnets. The speaker grilles are attached with magnets for easy maintenance, and optional painting of the speaker grilles is available to enhance the harmony with the interior.

　The company plans to reopen "Room301" in September of this year, where visitors can experience the products for residential use. Aimed at general users and installers, the space will also explain the listening experience of each speaker, as well as a space where visitors can experience how to enjoy home theater and smart home. Look forward to it.
