Description

Highly Efficient Klipsch Bookshelf Speakers

From Klipsch:

“Great things do come in small packages, and it is evident when you see and hear the B-20. Small enough to fit just about anywhere and powerful enough to engulf a room with mind-blowing sound, the B-20 offers users the full-package sound experience.

The B-20 is complete with our proprietary Tractrix® Horn technology which produces a unique combination of precision, clarity and effortless power. And thanks to its sleek, contemporary black finish and gray accents, the speaker blends in seamlessly with your décor.”

BOOKSHELF SPEAKER WITH CONTEMPORARY FINISH Black ash vinyl to complement any modern décor

TRACTRIX® HORN Proprietary technology provides a unique combination of precision, clarity and effortless power

ALUMINUM DIAPHRAGM COMPRESSION DRIVER (TWEETER) Produces crystal-clear high frequencies

IMG WOOFER Creates tight musical bass

REAR-FIRING PORT Provides exceptional and extensive bass performance

KLIPSCH BELIEVES FOUR PRINCIPLES TO BE THE FOUNDATION FOR GREAT SOUND:

• HIGH EFFICIENCY: Every Klipsch speaker is horn-loaded because the horn shape is perfect for accurate and dynamic sound transmission. Greater efficiency means lower distortion which means maximum realism.

• DYNAMIC RANGE: Klipsch horn technology reproduces the softest sounds with remarkable clarity and detail and the loudest sounds with no harshness or distortion. That’s what’s known as the best of both worlds.

• CONTROLLED DIRECTIVITY: Unique Klipsch horn technology means speakers that more accurately direct sound. The result is a more lifelike soundstage and way more “Whoa – Did you hear that?”

• FLAT FREQUENCY RESPONSE: We believe in delivering exactly the sound artists intend. Hence, Klipsch’s stunningly accurate speakers – with no unnatural highs, mids or lows.

Klipsch began in Hope, Arkansas, in 1946, when Paul W. Klipsch started building his corner-horn Klipschorn, and its Heritage speakers are still built by hand in Hope. We carry Klipsch towers, centre channels, bookshelf speakers and subwoofers. We've had more than 160 Klipsch listings so far. Every used Klipsch here is inspected, tested and serviced as required, then photographed in-house and covered by our Bumper-to-Bumper Warranty and Perpetual Trade-Back Program. Don't see the model you want? Tell us on First Dibs and we'll email you when one arrives.

The Klipsch story, 1946 to today

Paul W. Klipsch was posted to Hope, Arkansas, in 1941 as an Army officer. He patented his corner-horn design in the mid-1940s and founded Klipsch in Hope in 1946; Klipsch says its first speaker was built by hand there that year, with the horn made in a tin shed. He hired his first employee in 1948.

The Heritage line. The Klipschorn of 1946 was followed by the Heresy (1957), designed as a centre speaker to sit between a pair of Klipschorns, the Cornwall (1959), the La Scala (1963) and the Forte (1985).

A new generation. Fred Klipsch bought the company from Paul Klipsch in 1989, and headquarters later moved to Indianapolis. Paul Klipsch died in 2002 at 98. The Reference Series arrived in 1999.

A Canadian connection. In 2006 Klipsch bought Audio Products International of Toronto, with its Energy and Mirage brands. Audiovox, later VOXX, bought Klipsch in 2011, and Gentex bought VOXX in 2025.

Which Klipsch is which?

Heritage: the Klipschorn, Heresy, Cornwall, La Scala and Forte, built to order by hand in Hope. Drivers change between generations, so identify the version.

KG series (mid-1980s to early 1990s): lower-priced horn-tweeter floorstanders such as the KG 4 (1985 to 1992) and KG 5.5.

Reference (1999 onward): horn-tweeter towers, bookshelf speakers and centres, from the RB-5 and RF-7 to the later RF, RB and RC models.

Synergy (late 1990s and 2000s): such as the KSF 8.5 and the SF-1.

Subwoofers: powered models such as the RPW-10.

Buying used Klipsch: what to check

Horn diaphragms. The compression drivers in older Klipsch speakers age; owners report tired midrange diaphragms on Heritage models and raspy tweeters on some KG pairs. Listen to each horn on its own at a moderate level.

Reference tweeters. A crackling tweeter can be a loose connection, and owners say these tweeters can fail if played very loud.

Crossovers and passive radiators. Many Heritage and KG owners recap their crossovers, and KG passive radiators can have cracked surrounds.

Modifications. Aftermarket diaphragms and crossovers are common upgrades on Heritage and KG models. Ask what has been changed.

Where it was made. Heritage models are built in Hope. Check the label before calling any other Klipsch "made in USA".

Everything we list is inspected, tested and serviced as required here, and comes with our warranty.
