Klipsch - R-5502-W II In-Wall Speaker - Each - Black
About this product
The Klipsch R-5502-W II maintains the core technology use of a premium 1” Titanium compression driver (tweeter) mated to an exclusive Tractrix Horn combined with dual 5.25” Cerametallic woofers in a 2-way design. The R-5502-W II is perfect as a very powerful front right, left or center channel speaker and can fill the largest rooms with sound. Now with a new low profile, more elegant grille and refinements to both high frequency and low frequency reproduction, it continues as the perfect choice for everything from 2-channel music playback to full, large room surround sound use.
The Update For Your Eyes: The New SlimTrim™ Grille
With an all new grille, the visible frame size is reduced by 90% and grille depth is reduced by 80% over the previous design, for a more edge-to-edge consistent look that blends in with the wall more attractively. The new aluminum, paintable, magnetic grille attaches tightly and securely with ease to virtually eliminate resonant distortion.
Pivoting Tractrix Horn
Klipsch horn-loaded technology increases acoustic output while significantly reducing distortion. The horn’s 90° x 90° dispersion pattern directs high frequencies identically whether speaker is mounted vertically or horizontally (as a center). Horn pivots +/- 15° to aim sound directly at the main listening area. This feature sends more direct sounds to the listener and less reflected sounds for more detailed sound, wider dynamics and better vocal clarity.
Titanium Diaphragm Compression Driver (Tweeter) With Linear Travel Suspension (LTS)
Combined with the Tractrix Horn, the one-inch, solid-formed, very lightweight metallic diaphragm works in conjunction with a precise phasing plug at the horn throat to create a highly efficient driver with excellent transient response and lack of distortion. The new Linear Travel Suspension assures the most precise diaphragm excursion, increasing high-frequency detail and smoothness.
Machine-Spun Cerametallic™ Woofers
The dual woofers utilize solid aluminum diaphragms, anodized to add stiffness and provide perfect damping, and have a new hi-tech look that also delivers increased rigidity for even tighter, more defined bass. The new integrated dust caps further strengthen the cones and help ventilate the voice coils for increased driver durability.
Premium, High Definition Network
The perfect blending between drivers for full bandwidth balanced response.

Specs
Do you recommend adding rockwoll or anything above and below the speaker for sound transfer?
Answered by Klipsch Product ExpertHello! Rockwool is a great product, which can help to dampen sound transfer between rooms. Additional insulation is not necessary per se, but you can absolutely use it in this application. You'll just want to ensure that the insulation does not physically touch the back of the speaker if choosing to add it to your installation. If you have any further questions about this, please feel free to reach out to Klipsch Support to speak directly with a product support representative.
