Prove it to me: How Hempstead and surrounding communities’ proving grounds produced not only area jobs, created a “legend in sound'“, and helped win World War II.

The Klipsch Museum Of Audio History was featured in the Sunday edition of the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.

The Klipsch Museum of Audio History in Hope is a find not just for audiophiles, but for those who are wanting to learn more about one of the most interesting audio pioneers of our era.

KHMA, in cooperation with KGI, supplied the speakers for this event. The movie is still in mono, so a splayed pair of KP-396’s comprised the center cluster, and a KP-1802 provided the last couple of octaves. We were told that the man who originally scored the movie heard things he had never heard before. Sound familiar?

Time capsule update: The Hope Prescott News is a new publication that fills that void left by the defunct Hope Star, Hope’s long-time newspaper. We thank them for the local coverage. With education integral to our Mission and Vision, it is great to see The Klipsch Museum (and curator Jim Hunter) standing with representatives of the Hope Public Schools in this Bicentennial pay-it-forward effort.
