Krell Resolution 4

Krell Industries announces the addition of the Resolution 4 and Resolution C2 speakers to its Resolution Series lineup of loudspeakers. Both speakers feature the same quality drivers and cabinet construction as the rest of the Resolution Series, but in a smaller profile to accommodate a wider variety of listening environments.

The Resolution 4 (Res. 4) was designed with today's ever popular flat panel displays in mind. Not content to simply provide a slim speaker to hang next to a plasma or LCD display, Krell engineered a great sounding, attractive loudspeaker that would not only visually compliment the rest of the Resolution Series loudspeakers, but perform equally as well. By design, the Res. 4 also makes the perfect surround speaker that can be discreetly flush mounted on the wall to provide realistic surround sound effects.

The two-way Res. 4 features a 6.5-inch midrange driver and a 1-inch tweeter that integrates the same "waveguide" as the rest of the Resolution family for increased dispersion characteristics. The Res. 4's impeccably crafted cherry cabinet offers a welcome aesthetic departure from the typical silver painted "plasma friendly" speakers, while its slim 5-inch depth (w/o grille) helps seamlessly integrate it with all wall mounted flat panel displays. The Res. 4 comes with a versatile wall mounting bracket to safely and securely mount it to the wall.

Both the Res. 4 and Res. C2 are bass reflex designs and feature WBT binding posts for better connectivity and are available in a beautiful cherry or matte black finish. When combined with Krell's Class A, KAV or Showcase electronics, the Resolution Series loudspeakers complete a KrellHEATª music and home theater system of stunning dynamics and clarity.

Estimated MSRP of the Resolution 4 and Resolution C2 is $3000/pair and $2500/each respectively. Both are expected to ship Q4 2004.
