CustomRetailer magazine honors Icon Series XF-48 floorstander with 2007 Excite Award

INDIANAPOLIS (September 11, 2007) — When it came to selecting products that, in the past year, have garnered the most excitement in the consumer electronics industry, the editorial staff at CustomRetailer magazine chose the Klipsch XF-48 floorstanding loudspeaker for a 2007 Excite Award.

As the flagship speaker in the company’s new Icon Series, a six-model lineup designed to bring stunning audio to today’s stunning flat-panel displays, the fully-active XF-48 floorstander utilizes an all-new wide dispersion Tractrix® Horn-loaded tweeter with XT™ technology.

This proprietary design allows the XF-48 to diffuse a smooth, enveloping 80-degree by 80-degree sound pattern from its extremely thin aluminum extrusion enclosure. As with all Klipsch horn-loaded technology, this version also produces more output using less energy, meaning you don’t need a lot of amplifier power to drive the speaker.

Furthermore, the XF-48 achieves full-range, deep bass response by employing dual high-output 5.25-inch black fiberglass cone woofers that utilize powerful neodymium motor structures as well as two passive radiators that are 8.5-inches high by 5.25-inches wide.

Featuring a sleek, black grain anodized finish with black gloss accents; the XF-48 proves that you don’t have to sacrifice great sound for great style. The XF-48 will begin shipping to the specialty retail and contracting markets next month and carry a U.S. MSRP of $2,498 a pair.

All of the 2007 Excite winners were recognized at a special awards party that took place in Denver, Colo. during the CEDIA trade show. Each nominated product was required to be available and shipping between January 1, 2007 and October 15, 2007. Judging was based on product photos, product descriptions as well as a 50-words or less answer to “What makes this product exciting?”
