The perfect speaker to bring you nearer to the music and artwork you're keen on. Our audio system are meant for a more tangible music experience akin to listening to vinyl data and holding album artwork in your arms. As we learned more about Elijah, we realized he is truly a devoted audiophile who has the perfect tools across the board and has a deeply-rooted ardour for DJing. His passion was stoked by his shut friendship with fellow DJ Zach Cowie who's one other massive fan of Klipsch Heritage Speakers and got Elijah hooked on them. The Vinyl Factory got to go inside Elijah and Zach’s document room, the place the two talked about their large record assortment in entrance of Klipschorns.
He incessantly retweets Klipsch posts in regards to the firm’s famed Heritage audio system. Responding to our feedback, questions and requests in a timely method, Elijah is at all times prepared to hear us out and even plays together with our foolish jokes. We then began “DMing” on Twitter and it got here to gentle that he has been a Klipsch fan for a very long time and a proud owner of the famed Klipsch La Scala audio system. He even sent as a photograph of the card on the again of the La Scalas which is signed by the individual craftsmen who built his audio system. Elijah’s La Scalas were inspected by Jerry White and examined by Judy Clayton.
THE hobbit – Elijah Wood – is a fan of the La Scala audio system displayed within the shirt. We could never have imagined vintage t shirts that after we originally produced the shirt. What makes our friendship with Elijah slightly more unusual is that he goes out of his means to help promote Klipsch products.
Zach even used a vintage PWK mug within the brief film that he picked up over eBay for a sum he doesn’t want you to know. Without understanding their relationship, we actually did a profile on Haley Solar, owner/founder of trend label Junim LA, who's Zach’s girlfriend and a proud proprietor of vintage Heresy speakers thanks to Zach. One of those such jokes is one that's dozens of years in the making. In the 70s, Klipsch produced a bunch of t-shirts to help promote the La Scala speaker.
After all, we expect our gear is the best choice for people who are serious about their sound which would come with many/most individuals involved in the movies and music industries. This notably comes to gentle at events such because the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony offered by Klipsch Audio, the place we are capable of talk one-on-one with a few of the greatest stars in the business. When we tweeted Elijah an image of the vintage t-shirts from an old advertising campaign and he got a giant kick out of it. Sadly, few of those shirts are available aside from the few that pop up here and there on eBay as talked about previously.
We sent one over to “Frodo” who immediately had a pal take an image of him with the shirt on and on prime of his personal La Scalas, tweeting it out to his lots of of thousands of followers. You have probably picked up on the pleasant coincidence.
Chances are you know who Elijah Wood thanks to Lord of the Rings, Flipper, Wilfred and Sin City, amongst different films and TV exhibits, but what you might not know is that he's large Klipsch fan and buyer. He is the proud owner of every of the Klipsch Heritage audio system including some actually sweet vintage La Scala speakers. Partly because of Elijah’s request, Klipsch determined to come out with a “reissue” of the shirt. Instead of blue and white, the shirt is in the firm’s now signature colours of black and gold.
These vintage t-shirts truly go for fairly a bit of money these days on Ebay. Without meaning to sound conceited, it isn’t exactly unusual for there to be somewhat-secret celebrity fans of Klipsch audio system and headphones.
