Bigger Horn, Fuller Sound on a Compact Klipsch Bookshelf Speaker
The Klipsch Reference Premiere series RP-500M II is a compact yet still formidable bookshelf speaker with plenty of possibilities. It boasts a 1" Titanium LTS Vented Tweeter with Hybrid Cross-Section Expanded Tractrix® Horn and a 5.25" Cerametallic Cone Woofer with Faraday rings. It uses a bass reflex enclosure with rear-firing Tractrix® Port.
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 Klipsch Reference lines, making it a core component of some of the best speakers in the world.
The vented tweeter housing reduces standing waves that create unwanted harmonics, resulting in enhanced detail and clarity in high frequency reproduction.
Cerametallic Woofers – All New Design
A signature feature of the Reference Premiere series, Cerametallic™ woofers are exceptionally rigid and lightweight for minimal distortion and maximum efficiency. New aluminum shorting rings reduce distortion as well as increased power handling and the new motor structure improve transit response with more control with greater speed and accuracy.
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, Improved Input Panel
Connections get a nice make over, featuring audiophile-grade wire and easily accessible aluminum binding posts for any connection type. Enjoy a whole new level of convenience.
More First-Class Perks
A strong, flexible, removable grille attaches magnetically for an elegant transition from powerful showstopper to discrete performance piece. Finishes include ebony vinyl and walnut vinyl that boast satin painted baffles with a scratch resistant finish. Cork pads replace standard rubber bumpers for security on a stand or table.
