Features

  • Handles up to 100W peak power (50W continuous)

    For robust and controlled audio that is crisp and clear.

  • 4" spun copper thermoformed crystalline polymer (TCP) woofers

    Utilizing trickle-down technology from Klipsch’s highly acclaimed Reference Premiere series speakers, the 4” TCP woofers have steeper angling of the cones for a smoother response and improved accuracy and transparency.

  • All new 90 x 90 Tractrix horn

    An updated horn design, including increased outer horn dimensions, will deliver more power and emotion to your music and movies. Bigger definitely means better, with directivity control over a larger bandwidth of frequencies, resulting in a more accurate sound stage.

  • Linear travel suspension (LTS) Aluminum Tweeter

    A hallmark of Klipsch speakers, the exclusive 1” LTS with Kapton Suspension tweeter minimizes distortion for more detailed performances. Aluminum is an extremely light and rigid material used in the tweeter assembly to provide high efficiency.

  • Dolby Atmos overhead sound effects

    The addition of elevation speakers reflects sound from the ceiling to put sound anywhere in your room - making you feel like you're truly in the middle of the action.

    Love my new speakers

    I’ve waited a week to watch tv and listen to music before typing this review. I purchased the Klipsch R-800F, R-40SA, and R-50M from Best Buy. These speakers are absolutely amazing. I already had a nice sub, and was going to get a second one, but i dont need it (this is coming from someone who had two 12s and two 10s in my trunk back in high school/college). No matter where i sit, if i turn it up and play a song with bass, my entire body vibrates. I got them on sale and I’m more impressed than i thought I would be.

Questions & Answers

  • Power is Marantz SR 8012 receiver. I also have 2 pair of the Chorus 2 speakers in the front with 2 RS 115SW subs and quartets for the rear. So my question is would it be best to hook a set of these directly to the Chorus 2 and the quartets? Steve

    You will want to connect the R-40SA II into your receiver's HEIGHT or ATMOS channels. We do not recommend connecting these speakers into your Chorus' terminal connectors.
