4. Produktfunktioner
The Klipsch R-40SA speakers incorporate several design elements for audio performance:
- Dolby Atmos aktiveret: Designed to reflect sound off the ceiling for overhead effects, creating an immersive soundfield. Can be placed on top of existing speakers or used as dedicated surround speakers.
- 90° x 90° Tractrix-horn: This horn design aims to provide controlled sound directivity over a wide frequency range, contributing to a precise sound stage.
- Lineær rejseophæng (LTS) aluminiumsdiskant med Kapton-ophæng: The 1-inch LTS tweeter is designed to minimize distortion, offering detailed high-frequency reproduction. Aluminum is used for its light and rigid properties, enhancing efficiency and resolution.
- Spundet kobber termoformede krystallinske polymer bashøjttalere: The 4-inch TCP woofers feature angled cones for a smoother frequency response and improved accuracy.
- Skabsdesign: Features hidden fasteners, an edge-to-edge horn, and low-profile magnetic grilles for a clean appearance. The reinforced ¾-inch MDF construction with a bracing design reduces cabinet vibration for sonic accuracy.

- Surroundhøjttalere: The speakers can also be used as traditional surround speakers, mounted on a wall or placed on stands, positioned to the sides or slightly behind the listening area.
