Applying the same cutting-edge research and technology that drives our professional theater speakers, this high-style, high-performance system uncovers all the power, detail and emotion of your digital music library.  Taking advantage of refined industrial design, high-end materials and innovative technology, the iGroove SXT delivers classic Klipsch sound like never before.

A true two-way system, the iGroove SXT achieves accurate, detailed sound by way of dual 2.5-inch woofers in a ported enclosure, premium crossovers and dual 3/4-inch MicroTractrix™ Horn-loaded tweeters. Klipsch is the only company in the iPod speaker category to utilize horn technology, a design that delivers lifelike sound as well as produces more output using less energy.

Available in a sleek black finish that fits comfortably into any office or living environment, the system comes with an IR remote and is ready to perform as soon as you plug it in and dock an iPod.

Note:  The power adapter and power cord are included with a new unit.  If you need to replace them, they are sold as two separate parts.  You can find them in the related items section of this page.

Reviews

"The sound was surprisingly sophisticated and bristled with detail whether playing Mantovani or Marilyn Manson. As the volume increased, the Klipsch rose to the challenge and sounded clean right up to its maximum setting."
- UK Times Online [3/23/2008]

"An extremely likeable iPod system, with a superb build and great sound quality considering the price. It's ideal for students and wouldn't be out of place in a bedroom."
- CNET.co.uk [3/19/2008]

" ... we appreciated the little system's relatively full sound and keep-it-simple approach. ... Considering its small size, we didn't expect the iGroove SXT to rock our world, but the R.E.M. Live CD put out so much bass we could feel it vibrating the table in our listening room. Michael Stipe's vocals were clear, and the drums sounded powerful."
- Steve Guttenberg, CNET [3/6/2008]

"For meaty music fun on a budget, this Klipsch is a rocking dock."
- What Hi-Fi? Sound and Vision [2/25/2008]

"... it pumps out surprisingly powerful sound for its size."
- Macworld [1/1/2008]

"... priced at just $149, it's considerably more affordable than the original iGroove, yet offers much of the same appeal: full, rich sound in a desktop design."
- Dan Frakes, Playlist [10/18/2007]

"... the system produces surprisingly rich, full sound. ... upper bass is strong enough to give the system punch and warmth. Midrange is also good, and for such a small system, the SXT plays quite loud without distorting."
- Dan Frakes, Playlist [10/18/2007]

"... the iGroove SXT offers solid sound in a package that's much less expensive than the best desktop speaker systems out there."
- Dan Frakes, Playlist [10/18/2007]

" ... it's a robust and clear sound as good as any micro-stereo system you could ask for. And because these are real speakers working, even cranked up they hold their audio without hissing back at you."
- Marshal M. Rosenthal, E-Gear [8/8/2007]

"In our tests it offered strong upper bass ... Mids and highs were very clear, and the MicroTractrix horn-loaded tweeters delivered on our tests, reproducing vocals and horns extremely well."
- Mike Kobrin, Laptop [7/18/2007]
