KLH KENDALL MK2 PREMIUM SPEAKERS

KLH was founded in 1957 as KLH Research and Development Corporation in Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States, originally by Henry Kloss, Malcolm S. Low and Josef Anton Hofmann to manufacture loudspeakers.
Once the world's largest speaker manufacturer, it supplies more than 30,000 speakers annually to retailers and distributors on six continents. Several speakers KLH Audio are among the best-selling models in the world. The most significant of these are the epoch-making and still available in modern form Model Five, the successful Model Six and Model Seventeen models with acoustic suspension in an airtight enclosure design Its technical and physical foundations were developed jointly by designer Edgar Villchur and founder Henry Kloss in the 1950s.
Named after Kendall Square in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the birthplace of KLH, these flagship speakers embody stunning beauty and craftsmanship.

The recipe for Kendall Mk2 speakers made in Canada: Custom developed speaker units and electronic components assembled in a beautiful cabinet with genuine furniture quality black oak or walnut veneer with a ten-year manufacturer's warranty. Magnetically mounted grilles provide dust protection for the speakers, without visible or protruding fasteners. The speaker stands firmly on individual pins bolted into solid steel leg profiles. These are extremely important in minimizing resonance and filtering out distortions and inaccuracies. The attenuation of the cabinet's own vibrations was realized with special internal reinforcements. This results in better and more precise bass and reduces interference distortion, so nothing interferes with the sound waves produced by the speakers. It features an all-new, custom-developed speaker kit and additional components. Die-cast and milled aluminum cage speakers work efficiently to dissipate heat from high performance and minimize resonances. Dual bass, one midrange and one tweeter (3-way) configuration is divided into four speakers and ensures adequate bass range not only by the subwoofer construction, but also by its double-sized surface.

A mathematically ideal speaker diaphragm has no mass. Of course, there is no such thing in practice, but the moderation of alternating masses is extremely important. According to Newton's 3rd law, speaker diaphragms moving back and forth "shake" the box as a counter-reaction corresponding to their mass, so efforts should be made to minimize these masses.

Many high-tech materials and solutions play a role, such as CCAW voice coils and hybrid membrane materials. The reduction of the weight of the speaker diaphragms and the large mass of the rigid cabinet allow unwanted resonances to be filtered out, thereby drastically reducing distortion. These new speakers, mid-bass, bass drivers and ferrofluid-cooled titanium dome tweeter deliver more detail, better accuracy and performance management, and greater linearity. Thanks to deeper bass extension, the speakers flawlessly reproduce the artist's original performance with amazingly natural detail and depth. Thanks to the extraordinary load capacity, dynamic limits are pushed to an extent unknown in this category. Thanks to this solution, the speaker with tunable front and rear bass ports is easier than average to install, as the designers allow you to choose a forward- or rear-facing bass reflex slot, adapting it to the conditions of the listening room.

Visceral bass – a listening feeling that transports you to a live concert venue and a home theater listening experience. This premium speaker family suits classic stereo eavesdropping and home theater enthusiasts alike, embodying KLH's legacy while pushing the sound quality boundaries of its class.
