Adorn your home with precision sound

Thanks to a new patent-pending gimbal mechanism, known as Controlled Dispersion Technology™ (CDT), both the high and low frequencies of the Reference Series CDT2650SC can be directed towards the listening area. Because the tweeter is independently adjustable from the woofer, this speaker offers even more precise localization.

Let's talk about the swivelling horn

The CDT2650SC features two .75" silk tweeters mated to a swiveling 100-degree Tractrix® Horn. This swiveling horn design dramatically increases efficiency by enabling the speaker to produce more output using less energy. Additionally, a horn-loaded tweeter works well in instances where you want to point the sound to a specific location because it has more controlled directivity than a conventional dome tweeter.

And you should know something about the woofer

The speaker's 6.5" polymer woofer also has great positioning capabilities. It can rotate a full 360 degrees and then shift 15° in any direction. This flexibility combined with the swiveling tweeter puts you in complete control of where the sound will go.

Paint your soundscape any color you wish

Available in a white finish, the paintable CDT2650SC can be paired with the Klipsch IK650C installation kit (sold separately). This revolutionary kit design incorporates a mud ring, breakaway wire tie and color-coded brackets for easy speaker size identification. It also includes perforated metal wings that easily fasten to the studs via screws, staples or nails. Painted white for easy marking and placement, these metal wings can be folded around the edge of the studs if necessary.

More on Tractrix® horns

Tractrix® Horns have always been the key component of many Klipsh speakers. It's a horn-shaped device inside the speaker that sends sound effortlessly into the room. 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.

Make sure you have cables

If you are using an Blu-ray player, a receiver, or anything else that is capable of sending a high definition signal, don't forget to purchase the right cables. Many people dont realize what a significant difference the right cables make, and when they get their new high definition equipment home, they think the equipment itself is to blame when the sound isn't as good as it should be. This is because most components (Blu-ray, receivers, etc) don't come with cables, so people often use whatever they have around the house, or buy cheap cables, thinking "it will do." Another reason people don't buy the right cables is because trying to figure out which cables you need can be daunting, and it's hard to know where to start. Our sales representatives are there to explain all your options, so you can make the best purchase and get the most out of your speakers.
