Bring pure, natural sound to your home theater with this pair of ebony Reference Premiere RP-500M 2-Way Bookshelf Speakers from Klipsch. Featuring a two-way speaker design, each RP-500M incorporates a 1" titanium LTS vented tweeter paired with a hybrid Tractrix horn and a 5.25" spun copper Cerametallic woofer. The RP-500M delivers a frequency response of 48 Hz to 25 kHz and can handle up to 75W of continuous power from your amplifier of choice.
90 x 90° Silicon Composite Hybrid Tractrix Horn
The RP-500M incorporates a Tractrix horn designed to enhance efficiency and increase detail while focusing high frequencies towards the listening area. The horn uses a phase plug and a compressed molded silicone face to ensure smooth frequency response and deliver clean, natural sound.
Linear Travel Suspension (LTS) Titanium Diaphragm Tweeter
The speaker's design includes a Linear Travel Suspension tweeter that minimizes distortion for enhanced, detailed performance.
Vented Tweeter Design
The vented tweeter housing reduces standing waves that create unwanted harmonics. This tweeter design results in enhanced detail and clarity in high-frequency reproduction.
Spun Copper Cerametallic Woofer
The RP-500M's Cerametallic woofer combines high rigidity with a lightweight construction to minimize distortion. It pairs seamlessly with the Tractrix horn-loaded LTS tweeter to deliver enhanced speaker efficiency.
Robust Input Terminals
The RP-500M's 5-way screw terminal pair accepts banana plugs or bare wire up to 12-gauge for a flexible, lasting connection. To facilitate setup, the terminals are color coded.
Tractrix Port
Using Tractrix geometry, the RP-500M's port allows for efficient, fast air transfer from the cabinet, reducing port noise and resulting in punchier low frequencies. Inner flares help reduce air turbulence entering the port for cleaner, more powerful bass.
Furniture-Grade Materials and Finishes
The speaker cabinet boasts an ebony vinyl finish, as well as satin-painted baffles with a scratch-resistant finish.
Strong, Flexible, Removable Grille
The speaker's strong and flexible magnetic grille can be easily mounted/removed.
