Klipsch starts shipping the Heritage Theatre Bar-- a three-channel soundbar available in 3 different widths, four different veneers, including a paintable finish, and a choice of four removable grille cloths.
The passive left, centre, right soundbar comes inside a low-profile body complete with built-in wall mounting. It is 0.6cm deep, and Klipsch includes a centralised input panel for all 3 channels on the front of the device for easy installation and setup.
Inside the Heritage Theatre Bar are Klipsch Tractrix horn technology and titanium tweeters, together with dual 4-inch Cerematallic woofers the company says maintain rigidity while achieving minimal cone breakup and distortion. Frequency response is 95Hz to 20kHz +/- 3dB, -10dB at 75Hz. Nominal impedance clocks at 8 ohms, while crossover totals 2800Hz.
Bowers & Wilkins launches Prestige Editions of the iconic 802 and 805 loudspeakers, both featuring the same audio specifications within a high-gloss Santos Rosewood finish hand prepared at the company's UK factory.
The Roku wireless speakers are reminiscent of the HomePod, and are designed to work exclusively with Roku co-branded TVs. They run on "Roku Connect," a combination of hardware and software allowing the speakers to pair with all Roku OS devices available on the network. Once connected to the TV, the speakers play "optimised sound" from all other connected devices, including cable boxes, antennas and even mobile devices paired via Bluetooth.
Each amplifer delivers 2 channels of 140W RMS (or 1 channel at 280W in 70/100V mode) with frequency response of 20Hz - 20kHz and 26dB gain. A built-in DSP provides 31 band EQ with an Auto EQ function accessible through an Android/iOS companion app. Also included is an on-board sound masking generator.
Designed for integration where walls and ceilings converge, the two speakers are ideal for multi-zone audio audio, height channels for theatre systems (Atmos, Auro3D and DTS:X) and outdoor audio applications. Inside is a new version of the 4-inch woofer originally used in the 42AT landscape loudspeaker, designed using a Santoprene surround and aluminium cone.
