 Klipsch®, a leading premium global audio company, is pleased to announce the debut of its new Reference™ Premiere and Reference series speakers—all-new enhanced versions of the company’s award-winning and best-selling series of all time. The new Klipsch Reference Premiere and Reference speakers feature the most impactful upgrades in their history, including the latest technological audio advancements, premium materials, and dramatic cosmetic details.

The new Klipsch Reference Premiere series of speakers uses new, larger proprietary Tractrix® horn technology to improve high-frequency response and extension, while enhancing imaging and dynamics. Klipsch signature copper Cerametallic™ woofers with aluminum Faraday rings and Tractrix ports provide powerful low frequencies while minimizing distortion and maximizing efficiency. An exclusive Linear Travel Suspension (LTS) titanium tweeter maximizes dynamics, delivering detailed performances.

New premium materials and dramatic design features used in the Klipsch Reference Premiere series are the epitome of modern elegance. The speakers are available in two furniture-grade wood finishes – ebony and walnut. Sleek cabinet design details exude refinement with enhanced cabinet bracing, aluminum binding posts, cast aluminum feet, and discrete Dolby Atmos connections that allow for easy and refined elevation speaker integration. Signature Klipsch copper trim rings accentuate the tweeter and woofer, which can also be concealed by sturdy yet flexible magnetic grilles.

A new, larger, edge-to-edge proprietary Tractrix® horn provides improved coverage, bandwidth and directivity control. New woofers made of spun-copper thermoformed crystal polymer (TCP) use steeper angling of cones for a smoother response and better crossover integration for improved accuracy and transparency. Sleek cabinet designs exude modern elegance with enhanced cabinet bracing and features such as black scratch-resistant wood grain vinyl finish, metallic coated binding posts, and discrete Dolby Atmos connections that allow for easy and refined elevation speaker integration.
