This new generation features two new models: the redesigned Horizon UT and Horizon UT-X-A. These speakers have been designed with the incredibly thin form factor of current LED HDTVs in mind and complement them. In fact, Leon Speakers will design the speakers to match the dimensions and finish of the television, should you so desire.
