Brand new never used Krix Harmonix loudspeakers in Blackwood veneerOnly opened to inspectPicture of speakers out of box for colour reference only
Compared with buying new at this level, A$3,150 looks fair and actually a touch attractive versus the recent used market: it sits just under the A$3,491 median and comfortably below the A$5,348 75th percentile. It is not a bargain-bin price, but it is solid money for a serious floorstander if the presentation is clean and local pickup saves freight.
Krix has a strong rep for dynamic, easy-to-drive speakers that suit music and home cinema alike, with the sort of scale and punch that makes big Australian floorstanders appealing in real rooms. The upside here is getting a well-regarded, substantial loudspeaker without paying top-of-market money; just confirm cosmetics, driver condition, and whether stands/spikes/grilles or any original paperwork are included, since those details matter more than chasing tiny price differences.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Krix Loudspeakers was founded in 1974 by Scott Krix in Adelaide, Australia, following his degree in electronic engineering. Beginning in a garage with basic hand tools, the company evolved from crafting bespoke speakers for friends into a globally recognized manufacturer. By 1976, Scott opened The Acoustic Foundry, a hi-fi retail concept that pioneered the "Design Your Own Systems" approach, allowing customers to audition and customize speaker elements. The Home Grown series launched in 1978, establishing Krix's first commercial product line across multiple price points and sizes. Today, the company remains family-owned and operated, with Scott and his brothers Gary and Ashley still active in the business after five decades.
Krix specializes exclusively in loudspeakers across three primary categories: commercial cinema speakers, home cinema systems, and high-end domestic audio speakers. The brand gained prominence in the 1980s by pioneering infinite baffle wall technology and constant directivity horn designs for multiplex cinemas, a market segment they dominated for two decades. Their commercial cinema speakers now grace over 4,500 installations across 40 countries. In 2010, Krix formalized its home cinema range, and by 2018 became the exclusive Trinnov Audio Commercial Cinema distributor for multiple regions.
Krix occupies the premium to ultra-premium tier of the audio market, positioned as a high-end specialist rather than a mass-market manufacturer. The brand commands respect among both professional installers and discerning audiophiles willing to invest significantly in sound quality. Their reputation rests on decades of engineering innovation, proprietary horn technology, and unwavering commitment to Australian manufacturing. Krix appeals to buyers seeking cinema-grade acoustics for domestic environments and those pursuing uncompromising audio performance, making them a niche but prestigious choice within the global hi-fi landscape.
