Designed for home theater, distributed audio, and two-channel listening, the CS-16W combines a 6.5-inch polymer woofer with a 1-inch polymer tweeter to provide clear vocals, balanced music reproduction, and impressive efficiency without requiring a conventional speaker cabinet in the room.\n\nDesigned with both performance and installation simplicity in mind, the CS-16W features Klipsch's patented Sky Hook installation system, which automatically engages the mounting mechanism as the speaker is inserted into the wall opening. An infinite-baffle design simplifies integration into standard wall cavities, while the bezel-free white magnetic grille can be painted to coordinate with the surrounding surface.
