The La Scala effectively unveils the recorded musical information enabling you to hear the intricate detail and emotional response of the artist.
The Heritage Series La Scala three-way loudspeaker provides a very Klipschorn®-like performance with sparkling highs; extreme output yet smooth midrange; and the unsurpassed low distortion bass response of the patented Klipsch folded-horn woofer. Utilizing the same horn-loaded drivers used in the Klipschorn® and Belle Klipsch the La Scala is highly efficient and can produce high volumes with very little power and undetectable distortion.
When the La Scala first launched in 1963 audio pioneer Paul W. Klipsch made it for Arkansas gubernatorial candidate Winthrop Rockefeller to use as a public address speaker. Because some considered it a "portable" and more affordable version of the revolutionary Klipschorn® the La Scala found success beyond the campaign. Despite its raw unfinished appearance the fully horn-loaded three-way La Scala sounded so good people still wanted to put it in their living rooms.
The La Scala was updated in 2006 as the La Scala II.
