High sensitivity and power handling
Klipsch speakers use horns only in the treble and the bass and midrange are direct radiating: cones in normal boxes. The way you make a direct radiator more sensitive is to increase the motor power and decrease the diaphragm mass. But this approach leads to the need for a large box to get deep bass, that's why the 99db Altec Nineteen needs a 12 cubic foot box to get bass down in the mid 30s.

90ºx 90ºTractrix® Horn compression driver tweeter for clean, clear highs
With most horns types (e.g. exponential and hypex) you have reflections at the mouth which give resonances. With the tractrix horn, since the waves are hemispherical going through the horn, they exit with very few reflections. Tractrix horns therefore have less colorations.

Paintable UV-resistant ABS enclosure with rustproof aluminum grille
ABS (Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene) is tough, resilient, and easily molded. It is usually opaque, although some grades can now be transparent, and it can be given vivid colors. ABS-PVC alloys are tougher than standard ABS and, in self-extinguishing grades, are used for the casings of power tools. ABS has the highest impact resistance of all polymers. It takes color well. Integral metallics are possible (as in GE Plastics' Magix.) ABS is UV resistant for outdoor application if stabilizers are added.It is transparent (over 90% in the visible range but less for UV light) and has good color, depending on the amount of acrylonitrile that is added this can vary from water white to pale yellow, but without a protective coating, sunlight causes yellowing and loss of strength, slowed by UV stabilizers.

3/8"-16 Threaded insert for optional mounts
Threaded inserts are blocks of material with a threaded hole that are pressed or molded into a part, usually made of a different material. The materials used for making threaded inserts are metals such as brass and copper, and plastics such as PVC and PTFE. There are many types of threaded inserts depending on the material used to create them.
