Klipsch 1070043 RP-500C II Reference Premiere Walnut Center Channel Speaker

Features

  • 90° x 90° Silicon Composite Hybrid Tractrix Horn
    Horn loading maximizes efficiently and increases detail while focusing high frequencies towards the listening area. Proprietary Tractrix® geometry provides the most efficient transfer of high frequency waves into the listening area. The phase plug and compressed molded silicon face ensure smooth frequency response. When combined, the cleanest, most natural sound possible is created. The second generation increases horn size for a larger soundstage and enhanced directivity.
  • Linear Travel Suspension (LTS) Titanium Diaphragm Tweeter
    The exclusive Linear Travel Suspension minimizes distortion for enhanced, detailed performance. LTS tweeters are a hallmark of previous Reference lines, making it a core component of some of the best speakers in the world.
  • Vented Tweeter Design
    The vented tweeter housing reduces standing waves that create unwanted harmonics, resulting in enhanced detail and clarity in high frequency reproduction.
  • Tractrix Ports
    Utilizing Tractrix geometry, the Reference Premiere ports allow for the most efficient, fastest air transfer from the cabinet, which reduces port noise for punchier low frequencies. Klipsch Tractrix ports have custom designed inner flares that help reduce air turbulence entering the port. Less turbulent air helps reduce port noise for cleaner, more powerful bass.
  • New and Improved Input Panel
    Featuring audiophile-grade wire and easily accessible aluminum binding posts for any connection type.
  • Furniture Grade Materials and Finishes
    Finishes include ebony vinyl and walnut vinyl that boast satin painted baffles with a scratch resistant finish.
  • Strong, Flexible, Removable Grille
    Attaches magnetically for an elegant transition from powerful showstopper to discrete performance piece.
  • Cork Pads
    Cork pads replace rubber bumpers for security on a stand or table.
