Overview

Klipsch THX-8000-L | THX Ultra2 In-Wall Home Theater Speaker


The Klipsch THX-8000-L brings cinema-quality sound into the home with a discreet, high-performance in-wall design. Engineered for dedicated home theaters and custom media rooms, this two-way architectural loudspeaker delivers the clarity, dynamic range and controlled dispersion needed for an immersive surround sound experience without occupying valuable floor space.

At the heart of the THX-8000-L is an 8-inch aluminum cone woofer paired with a 1-inch titanium dome compression driver and Klipsch's signature 80° × 80° Tractrix horn. This combination delivers detailed dialogue, precise sound effects and dynamic musical reproduction while directing sound toward the listening area.

Its sealed enclosure provides predictable acoustic performance, while the shallow 3.88-inch mounting depth makes it suitable for a wide range of custom theater installations. Designed for left, center or right channel applications, the THX-8000-L can also be used wherever a high-performance monopole surround speaker is required.

Designed for Dedicated Home Theaters

The THX-8000-L provides the performance of a dedicated cinema loudspeaker in an architectural format that preserves the appearance and usable space of the room.

Its horn-loaded compression driver helps maintain controlled sound dispersion, while the sealed enclosure delivers consistent performance regardless of the surrounding wall cavity. The speaker's 8-inch woofer reproduces midbass and midrange frequencies, making it suitable for dialogue-heavy movie soundtracks and dynamic multichannel music.

For dedicated home theater applications, multiple THX-8000-L speakers can be installed behind an acoustically transparent projection screen to create a cohesive front soundstage. Its in-wall construction also makes it a practical choice for side and rear surround channels where conventional freestanding speakers may be undesirable.

With a specified frequency response beginning at 80 Hz, the THX-8000-L is intended to be integrated with a dedicated subwoofer for full-range cinematic bass reproduction.
