> Few of Klipsch’s speakers are as prized as its Klipschorn, yet the company thinks it’s surpassed even that mighty milestone with the Jubilee – a floor–standing speaker system that tops the Klipsch Heritage series.

The Jubilee was the last product the company’s founder Paul Klipsch worked on, and 20 years after his death, it’s finally been realised thanks to the advances of 21st-century technology and engineering.

The device combines a horn–loaded enclosure with dual 12–inch woofers and three four–inch ports, plus a compression driver providing wide bandwidth for clarity and accuracy. Everything is individually optimised for maximum quality, resulting in what Klipsch says is “one of the most efficient loudspeakers on the planet”. If you’re after audio perfection, the Jubilee may very well fit the bill.
