<p>Audio pioneer and company founder Paul W. Klipsch launched the Klipschorn loudspeaker in 1946 to enable people, for the first time ever, to experience the power, detail and emotion of a live performance at home.&nbsp; Commonly called a corner-horn speaker, the remarkably uncommon Klipschorn includes a highly efficient horn loaded tweeter and midrange compression driver. Its patented folded-horn 15&quot; woofer delivers powerful low frequencies.</p>
<p>Considered a watershed industry event, the introduction of the Klipschorn set the standard for high sensitivity, wide dynamic range, low distortion, and smooth frequency response. These principles, which drive the creation of every single Klipsch loudspeaker, are what make the Klipschorn as sought after today as it was decades ago.</p>
<p>As the only speaker in the world to be in continuous production for 60 years, the Klipschorn has remained relatively unchanged since its inception. In 2005, the company made some minor cosmetic and functional revisions to this legendary speaker, including the elimination of the inset collar, or spacer, between the upper and lower cabinets for a cleaner aesthetic appearance. A horizontal wall seal was added to improve the low frequency horn's response accuracy.</p>
<p>Available in a cherry, walnut or black ash wood veneer finish, the Klipschorn reflects a level of high-quality workmanship that will never go out of style.</p>

      <title>Heresy III</title>

<p>Because of its relatively &quot;compact&quot; size, this model offers the greatest degree of placement flexibility in the Heritage Series line.&nbsp; First introduced in 1957, the Heresy, a three-way design, started out as a compact center channel speaker to accompany the Klipschorn&reg; in three-speaker stereo arrays. In 1985, we made some changes and improvements to this model and re-released it as the Heresy II. Today, the new Heresy III has a more powerful woofer, a bi-wire network, and a titanium diaphragm tweeter with a larger magnet assembly. The midrange compression driver also features a new titanium diaphragm. </p>
<p>All of these changes result in improved tonal balance and increased output. In fact the Heresy III is three decibels louder (96 to 99dB), improving on its already high sensitivity.</p>
<p>In addition to delivering smooth, dynamic and low distortion sound, the Heresy III is available in a high-quality cherry, walnut or black ash wood veneer finish. Included is a slant riser base for floor placement that can be removed for cabinet installations.</p>

      <title>La Scala II</title>
      <link>http://www.klipsch.com/products/details/la-scala-ii.aspx</link>

Klipsch Heritage Series products are built to order, handmade in the US at our Hope, Ark. manufacturing facility.  Please allow approximately 4 weeks turnaround time.</p> <p><span style="font-style: italic;">Note: products are priced as &quot;each.&quot;<br /></span></p>
<p>Even though the La Scala II adopts a more finished appearance, it still delivers the same sparkling highs, extreme output and unsurpassed low distortion bass response as the original design. It also continues to utilize the same horn-loaded drivers as the Klipschorn, making it highly efficient and able to produce high volumes consuming very little power and undetectable distortion.<br /></p>
<p>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 &quot;portable&quot; and more affordable version of the revolutionary Klipschorn&reg;, 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.</p>
<p>Remaining virtually unchanged since those early campaign days, Klipsch decided to cosmetically improve the raw-looking La Scala by totally redesigning the way the cabinet was constructed. The goal was the achieve a more finished appearance and improve cabinet rigidity. It is now available in a variety of high-quality wood veneer finishes, including cherry, walnut and black ash. The La Scala II also includes a grille to cover the mid and high frequency horns. The bass horn cabinet walls are now constructed of 1-inch thick MDF rather than &frac34;-inch plywood to offer more support, decrease resonance and deliver cleaner bass response.</p>

      <title>Cornwall III</title>
      <link>http://www.klipsch.com/products/details/cornwall-iii.aspx</link>
      <description><![CDATA[ <p>Now available for purchase direct from Klipsch.com (US residents only)!  Klipsch Heritage Series products are built to order, handmade in the US at our Hope, Ark. manufacturing facility.  Please allow approximately 4 weeks turnaround time.</p> <p><span style="font-style: italic;"></span><span style="font-style: italic;">Note: products are priced as &quot;each.&quot;</span><br /> Initially introduced in 1959, the Cornwall speaker was designed to serve as a larger, full-range alternative to the Heresy when used as a center channel speaker between two widely spaced Klipschorns. When it was discontinued in 1990, there was an outcry from consumers resulting in a letter-writing campaign and even a petition to bring back this storied loudspeaker.<br /></p>
<ul>                </ul>
    <p>This famed speaker, now dubbed the Cornwall III, is back and better than ever. A three-way design using horn-loaded compression drivers for the midrange and treble and a direct-radiating 15-inch woofer for the low frequencies, the Cornwall delivers the full-range bass response of the Klipschorn&reg; with sensitivity and output approaching the fully horn-loaded models.&nbsp; The Cornwall III now includes a riser-base, which was optional in previous versions. <br /></p>
