Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The KLH HTA-400 is a six-piece home theater system featuring a 50-watt powered subwoofer, a center channel, and four satellite speakers. The subwoofer is a 6.5-inch front-firing cone powered by a built-in 50-watt amplifier. Each front and rear speaker contains a 4-inch woofer and a 0.63-inch dome tweeter. A center-channel speaker with dual 3.63-inch woofers completes the system. Each speaker in the HTA-400 system is capable of handling up to 100 watts.

Audio features include a continuously variable crossover to get the best response from each speaker, a phase control switch to set delay on the subwoofer's output, and two-way speaker operation that sends low frequencies to the woofer and high frequencies to the tweeter. The system is voice matched to ensure consistent tonal quality and sound from each speaker, and it's magnetically shielded for use near the TV.

KLH Audio offers a one-year warranty on parts and 90 days on labor.

3.0 out of 5 stars Starter Speaker System, March 9, 2001

This review is from: KLH HTA-400 6-Piece Home Theater Speaker System with 6.5" 50-Watt Powered Subwoofer (Electronics)

I just recently bought this 6 piece speaker system as my first entry into the world of home audio. I have a very good receiver, its the Yamaha RXV-800, so these KLH speakers are not even close to the quality needed to fully maximize a solid receiver. In any case, the bottom line with this product is "you get what you pay for." For the price, it gives you a full speaker system that can fill an averaged sized room. The quality becomes distorted at high volumes, but this is typical of speakers of this quality.

The playback is fine, and I stress that the quality is decent for the amount of money. Again, this system should be a starter kit, with more money poured into speakers as one can afford to do so. Speakers are by far, the main component of quality sound when it comes to home audio. The subwoofer is actually a plus for the system, since the small satellite speakers need quite of bit of power to get them loud. I usually need to crank the receiver fairly high in order to get the full surround sound feel in my room.

On the whole, I would recommend this for a starter or temporary system, however definitely spend the extra cash to get a better system if you can.
