Manufacturers are chosen based on a three-step process that includes: application, approval by USAV’s Dealer Advisory Council, and an affirmation by USAV Integrators. Klipsch was chosen for the Company’s competitive pricing and incentive program, and also because it is the only brand in the industry to deliver the power, detail and emotion that powerfully connects people to sound.
