Klipsch THX-8000-S Surround Sound In-Wall Speaker
THX-8000-S In-Wall Speaker
The Klipsch THX-8000-S is a THX Ultra2 Certified in-wall surround speaker built to deliver true cinema-style immersion without taking up any floor space. Designed for premium custom installations, it uses Klipsch Wide Dispersion Surround Technology (WDST) to create an enveloping sound field with precise effects placement, even when speaker placement isn’t perfect. A diffuse Tractrix® horn array with dual 1" titanium dome neodymium tweeters handles detailed, lifelike surround effects, while an 8" aluminum cone woofer brings the punch and impact modern soundtracks demand.
The sealed, fully enclosed design helps maintain consistent performance, and the edge-to-edge, flat magnetic grille is paintable to blend seamlessly into any room. Install it vertically or horizontally for maximum layout flexibility while keeping your home theater clean, discreet, and uncompromising. The Klipsch THX-8000-L is part of ListenUp's Klipsch In-Wall Speakers Collection.
