"All Klipsch products are RoHS (reduction of hazardous substances) compliant, meaning they do NOT contain substances that are harmful to humans or the environment. The company has also made energy improvements to its RoHS-compliant production plants, using more efficient heat sources and insulation."

"Then again, Klipsch has been implementing “green” processes well before the environmentalism movement. Company founder Paul W. Klipsch discovered that the use of Horn technology is the best way to achieve high efficiency and low distortion from a speaker. This classic observation—which remains the foundation of Klipsch products today—not only creates powerful, detailed audio performances, it also puts its speakers among the most efficient converters of electrical power into great sound on the planet."

"While average home loudspeakers require 1 watt of audio power in order to produce 85 to 88dB sound levels, Klipsch speakers can produce 3 to 6dB more sound output using that same 1 watt. A 3 to 15dB range is more typical if you include the company’s founding product, the Klipschorn®. If you consider only a 6dB difference, that reduces amplifier power needs by a factor of four, cutting amplifier electricity utilization by 75 percent and ultimately helping save the environment."
