According to TWICE.com, Klipsch is releasing a new series of speakers exclusively for Best Buy.

The Klipsch Icon series consists of five models, the highest priced model running $899 per pair, and will be available in Best Buy stores on May 22, 2011. While the Icon series isn't Klipsch's first line of speakers to be exclusive to Best Buy, it definitely seems influenced by Audiovox's purchase of Klipsch earlier this year.

The surround speakers have Klipsch's Wide Dispersion Surround Technology as well.

The new speakers will join matching Klipsch subwoofers that Best Buy already carries.
