Saving the world one speaker at a time!
It should come as no surprise to learn the speaker business is not always a barrel of laughs. When times get tough, speakers are one of the first things people put off buying. They would rather put things like food and housing first, for some reason. While I don't agree with this philosophy - speakers should be a top priority in all our lives - unfortunately it's the current reality.
In light of this new revaluation, it's important to understand Klipsch Group has taken every action to not only survive, but to become far more innovative in delivering great sounding products. For example, we recently challenged our design and engineering teams to take the same approach used developing our $20,000 per pair Palladium P-39F speakers, but along the lines of $599 per system. Offering outstanding sound solutions which people have an opportunity to own during such times is a great way to build brand loyalty, not to mention to test our engineers technical capabilities.
Because engineers are normally quite literal in what they say and do, they did just that: the new Klipsch HDT 500 system is astounding.
Congratulations to the entire team for such an accomplishment, and to all our every day accomplishments. I continuously see our teams take on challenges and treat each project as if they are developing the most expensive product in the world.
Through my years at Klipsch, this has always been the culture. For that reason the group earns the right to be proud and passionate about the work they do, which manifests itself in our personality. This kind of Passion and Dedication is why we can save the world one speaker at a time.
No matter what your situation, take out a great piece of music tonight, close your eyes and consider how you want to shape the future.
