THE ORIGINAL HERITAGE BOOKSHELF
Now available for the first time ever – the Klipsch Rebellion, Paul W. Klipsch’s original bookshelf loudspeaker design, engineered for low distortion and high performance. Envisioned as a center speaker between two Klipschorns in a three-channel stereo array, the Rebellion was called the H8 when it was introduced in 1958 as a smaller version of the legendary Heresy (which debuted the previous year). Now it’s back, better than ever, to claim its place in history as the original Heritage Series bookshelf speaker.
LEGENDARY AMERICAN SOUND SINCE
1946 The Klipsch Rebellion is a two-way speaker design featuring a highly efficient K-702 tweeter mounted to a K-703 Tractrix® horn with Klipsch patented Mumps™ for distortion free, crystal-clear highs. A new K-81-EP woofer delivers impressive, deep bass, while a rear tractrix flare port allows for efficient air transfer and reduces port noise. Combined into a compact cabinet, the Klipsch Rebellion punches way above its weight class.
PROUDLY HANDCRAFTED IN HOPE
Quality assembled in Hope, Arkansas USA by proud craftspeople, the Klipsch Rebellion is made like fine furniture – like every premium Klipsch Heritage model since 1946. Book matched veneers wrap the wood cabinets and real cloth grilles adorn the façade of the loudspeaker, delivering a striking profile. An industry-leading 10-year warranty is also included.
OUTSTANDING PRESENTATION
The Klipsch Rebellion is designed for the Klipsch KS-24 speaker stands, delivering immersive, life-like sound at the perfect height. A high-quality input panel and logo badge completes the package. Ideal for two-channel stereo playback, or as part of a Klipsch Heritage home theater system, the Rebellion is a worthy addition to the Heritage lineup – premium performance and luxury details.
