All Krix Commercial Cinema speakers are proudly made with passion in Adelaide, South Australia. Since 1974, Adelaide has been the home of Krix’s head office and production facilities, where all engineering, research and development, manufacturing, assembly, testing, warehousing, and logistics take place.
Built from experience
Founded in 1974, Krix has grown from a local speaker manufacturer to a globally respected cinema audio brand.
In the 1980s and 90s, founder Scott Krix and his team were deeply involved in designing and installing speaker systems in cinema complexes throughout Australia. Their passion for sound quality and hands-on approach quickly established Krix as a trusted name in the cinema industry worldwide. Today, Krix speakers are installed in over 4,500 cinemas across more than 40 countries, trusted by integrators, cinema chains and AV consultants for their performance, reliability, and support.

Krix auditorium packages
Every cinema is unique. That’s why Krix has developed a series of recommended Auditorium Packages to help simplify system design while maintaining flexibility. Each package represents a scalable starting point for a Krixpowered auditorium, optimised by room size and speaker configuration.
Krix’s philosophy of cinema design is rooted in the understanding that every space is different. Factors like room shape, seating layout, acoustic treatment, air conditioning, walkways and lighting all impact performance.
These packages are designed to work as-is or be interchanged with alternative Krix models depending on:
• Installation constraints
• Desired SPL and headroom
• Power handling and sensitivity
• Budget and visual requirements
Krix cinema systems are a smart investment for any size theatre, delivering powerful, precision sound that creates an unforgettable cinematic experience for every guest.

Technology
LED Screen ready technology
As LED screen technology becomes increasingly adopted in premium cinema environments, it introduces a new set of acoustic challenges for integrators and cinema owners alike. Unlike traditional perforated projection screens, LED displays are solid, non-transparent surfaces - removing the option to place speakers directly behind the screen. This shift requires a reimagining of speaker placement and design to maintain precise sound alignment with on-screen visuals.
Krix has developed purpose-built loudspeaker solutions to address these demands, ensuring no compromise in sound quality, spatial coherence, or cinematic impact.
Optimised for above and below screen use
Designed specifically for use in LED screen cinemas, the Krix KX-5720 offers a slim, tapered form factor ideal for above-screen placement. Its 3-way system features patented constant directivity horn technology, ensuring smooth, even coverage and exceptional dialogue intelligibility across the entire seating area. Whether mounted above or below the screen, the KX-5720 delivers precise localisation, high output, and incredibly low distortion - restoring the immersive sound alignment often lost with solid screens.
• True 3-way configuration with dedicated 6 inch neodymium midrange horn for vocal clarity
• High-efficiency bass driver with proprietary Krix ‘X Bracing’ system for reduced resonance
• Uniform directivity and frequency response across the audience
• Compact 625mm high enclosure with tilt bracket for installation flexibility
Immersive overhead sound for 3D audio formats
To complement the screen systems, the Krix KX-1061 and KX-1062 ceiling surround speaker offers high output and precise coverage for immersive audio formats. Its shallow profile and adjustable pan/tilt bracket make it ideal for LED cinemas where space and projection paths are limited. Engineered with high-performance neodymium drivers, it delivers consistent SPL and coverage where it matters most - overhead.
Screen systems
Krix screen speakers are engineered for clarity, consistency, and complete immersion - whether you’re outfitting an intimate theatre or a flagship multiplex. From 2-way to advanced 4-way systems, Krix delivers the performance, precision, and power today’s cinemas demand.
• Purpose-built for traditional surround formats
• High-efficiency, low-distortion components for accurate sound reproduction
• Patented constant directivity horns for consistent audience coverage
• Options to suit any room size or configuration
Our unique in-house engineering allows for fine-tuned acoustic loading, superior dialogue intelligibility, and seamless integration with Krix subwoofers and surround systems.
