INDIANAPOLIS (January 8, 2007) — As the iPod continues to strike
the right note with consumers and seize 77 percent market share*,
Klipsch plans to set a new precedent within the corresponding
accessories space by launching a new high-style, high-performance
all-in-one speaker solution: the iGroove SXT.
“This latest system further reinforces our commitment to enhancing
the digital music experience,” said Tony Ostrom, director of product
planning. “The iGroove SXT takes advantage of refined industrial
design, high-end materials and innovative technology to deliver classic
Klipsch power, detail and emotion like never before.”
The iGroove SXT is a true two-way setup that employs dual 2.5-inch
woofers in a ported enclosure, premium crossovers and dual 1-inch
MicroTractrix™ Horn-loaded tweeters. In fact, Klipsch is the only company
in this category to utilize horn technology, a design that delivers lifelike
sound as well as produces more output using less energy.
The system accepts and charges all iPods with a 30-pin connector.
Universal well inserts are included to securely dock the assorted
models. The shuffle and other digital devices connect via a rear
auxiliary input, while an S-Video output lets users view videos on
external monitors. The iGroove SXT comes with an IR remote and is
ready to perform as soon as you plug it in and dock an iPod.
Available in a black finish, the iGroove SXT also features a unique black
cloth grille. Plus, it has a shallow enclosure depth, making wall mounting
an option. Wall brackets will be sold separately on klipsch.com.
“The iGroove SXT separates itself from the iPod speaker pack by offering
high-end aesthetics and top-tier sound performance,” said Ostrom.
Slated to hit the market in April, the iGroove SXT will be sold through
mass and specialty retailers and carry a $149.99 U.S. MSRP price tag.
