Synergy S-20
The Legendary Klipsch Story
In 1946, Paul W. Klipsch created Klipsch’s proprietary horn technology and sound principles that have been the driving force behind their highly acclaimed signature sound. Every speaker made – from the Professional Cinema speakers, used in half of all newly installed theaters, to the smallest bookshelf speaker – is horn-loaded to create the ultimate live-sound experience. Paul W. Klipsch believed four principles to be the foundation for great sound. Together, these four design principles—high efficiency with low distortion, controlled directivity, flat frequency response, and wide dynamic range—have and always will be the foundation for our stunningly powerful and precise sound. Fall in love with your favorite music and movies all over again.
Perfect Harmony

Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
In a word "Excellent" The sound is awesome. What you don't know is how easy it is to hang these speakers on the wall. Part of my project was getting wires dropped inside the wall instead of running them under carpet or around the baseboard. The installer said these Klipsch Synergy S-20 were the easiest installation he had ever done. The sound is great. I was really surprised how well the speakers delivered the bass. Most surrounds can't do that well. These can.
