KPT-1802-HLS
The KPT-1802-HLS is an industry-first horn-loaded subwoofer design using an 18-inch driver with a 4-inch voice coil. The patented horn-loaded vented design results in class-leading acoustic output combined with commanding 20 Hz bass response, previously unattainable from even a 21-inch driver configuration. It pairs with the Klipsch KPT-Cinema Grandeur or KPT-MCM-II for a fully horn-loaded cinema front stage.
