Complete your home theater experience with full 5.1-channel surround sound from the Klipsch HD Theater 500 home theater speaker package. Five satellite speakers deliver clear, detailed dialogue and effects thanks to 0.75" tweeters with Micro Tractrix horns and 2.5" mid-range drivers.

The other half

Hearing a movie's audio might be optional when we're talking about an in-flight movie, but when it comes to movies at home, the home theater experience is equal parts video and audio. Now that you've invested in a new flat-panel HDTV, it's time to complement your advanced viewing experience with rich, full, detailed audio. The HD Theater 500 home theater speaker system combines five two-way satellite speakers with a 100W powered subwoofer to fill your living room with sound-track-enhancing 5.1-channel surround sound. The formula is simple: video + audio = the complete home theater experience.

Compact body, room-filling sound

In any 5.1-channel speaker system, the center-channel and satellite speakers are responsible for delivering a movie soundtrack's dialogue and surround sound special effects. Each of the HD Theater 500's identical center-channel and satellite speakers combines a 1" aluminum-dome tweeter with two 2.5" fiber-composite mid-range drivers for surround sound effects with full, detailed high- and mid-frequency performance. Further, Micro Tractrix horn technology brings added brightness and realism to the tweeters' high-frequency reproduction.

Audio you can hear and feel

Mathematically, the little ".1" in the term "5.1-channel home speaker system" might seem insignificant. When it comes to the home theater experience, however, that little decimal makes an immeasurable difference. If you've never felt your recliner or couch shudder while watching your favorite action movie, you don't have a subwoofer. The low-frequency audio reproduced by a home theater system's subwoofer completes a home theater experience with full, deep bass audio that you can both hear and feel. Adding controlled, high-performance bass to your movie night, the HD Theater 500's subwoofer combines 100W of built-in amplification, a 8" down-firing fiber-composite driver, and a front-ported bass-reflex enclosure that is ideal for installation in cabinets.

The scoop on Tractrix

The hallmark of Klipsch speakers is their bright, realistic sound, and that can be credited to the patented Tractrix Horn. The Tractrix Horn's carefully calculated flare dramatically increases driver efficiency, allowing production of very high sound levels with minimal amplifier power and no strain or distortion. It also controls the sound's directivity, ensuring excellent coverage of the listening area while minimizing detail-obscuring reflections off of walls, floor, and ceiling. Fed by a smooth, accurate titanium-dome tweeter, the Tractrix Horn is the key to the vibrantly realistic, emotionally compelling Klipsch Sound Experience. The new 90° by 40° MicroTractrix Horn used in this HD Theater 500 speaker package incorporates the advances of Klipsch's Tractrix Horn technology in it's most compact application ever. Integrated into the front baffle to minimize diffraction, the horn delivers high output, low distortion, broad dynamics and, most importantly, true Klipsch sonic character.
