The third generation of Klipsch's award-winning premium Reference Premiere 600M II features new, larger proprietary Tractrix horn technology to improve high-frequency response and extension, while enhancing imaging and dynamics. Klipsch signature copper Cerametallic woofers with aluminum faraday rings and Tractrix ports provide powerful low frequencies while minimizing distortion and maximizing efficiency. Sleek cabinet design details exude refinement and luxury with enhanced cabinet bracing, aluminum binding posts, cat aluminum feet, and discrete Dolby Atmos connections that allow for easy and refined elevation speaker integration.

  • Increased horn size: A new, larger 90° x 90° silicone composite hybrid Tractrix horn provides incredibly efficient transfer of high-frequency waves into the listening area for crisper, clearer sound. The phase plug and compression molded silicone face ensure smooth frequency response.
  • New cerametallic woofers: The 6.5” cerametallic woofers have been updated for absolutely flawless sound reproduction, minimum distortion, and maximum efficiency. The redesigned woofer will deliver the power, detail, and emotion you expect from a Klipsch Reference Premiere speaker.
  • LTS titanium diaphragm tweeter: The exclusive linear travel suspension minimizes distortion for enhanced, detailed performance.
  • 2-way speaker system: Sounds like 1 source rather than several separate sources.
  • Advanced cabinet design: Additional bracing and a divided cabinet have been added to minimize cabinet resonances and vibrations, for the utmost transparency and clarity.
  • Removable grille: Attaches magnetically for an elegant transition from powerful showstopper to discrete performance piece.
  • Furniture grade materials and finishes: Finishes include ebony vinyl and walnut vinyl that boast satin painted baffles with a scratch resistant finish.
  • Improved input panel: Featuring audiophile-grade wire and easily accessible aluminum binding posts for any connection type.
  • 44Hz - 25kHz frequency response: Ensures a wide range of accurately reproduced sound.
  • 94dB sensitivity: Ensures crisp, robust audio.
  • 8 ohms nominal impedance: Ensures efficient conduction of power through the speaker.
  • Tractrix ports: Utilizing Tractrix geometry, the Reference Premiere ports in the main channel allow for the most efficient, fastest air transfer from the cabinet, which reduces port noise for punchier low frequencies and cleaner, more powerful bass.
  • Bi-wiring and Bi-amping capability: Dual input terminals for bi-wiring / bi-amping capabilities separate high and low-frequency current into different speaker cables, reducing distortion for clearer midrange. Bi-amping allows for customization using outboard crossovers when using separate amplifiers.
  • Vented tweeter design: The vented tweeter housing reduces standing waves that create unwanted harmonics, resulting in enhanced detail and clarity in high-frequency reproduction.
  • Cork pads: Cork pads replace rubber bumpers for security on a stand or table.

    What an Upgrade for HTS

    Decided to upgrade my nearing 20 year old Home Theater System and went with a KLIPSCH all around speaker system. These bookshelf speakers a larger than the picture make them seem. Be prepared to house these monsters on speaker stands as wall mounting may prove challenging to newbies. The speakers sound really good and even have a bit of a bass feedback reverb. I did a calibration test and they actually have decent sounds they are able to process. These have a bit of weight to them also.

    Wow!

    Been listening to these all day, wide soundstage with detailed but more refined overall tone than previous R-50m as L/R

    Great speakers, the sound I was looking for !!!

    These bookshelf is what I was looking for and are simply phenomenal. I am very choosy when it comes to good sound and these met my expectations very well. I had Klipsch R51 before and I liked them too but this one is really a good next level and takes your experience to a different level. Sound Quality: The clarity and precision are remarkable. These speakers can produce an expansive soundstage with deep, punchy bass and crystal-clear highs and experience are immersive. Power Handling: Rated for up to 400 watts, these speakers are more than capable of filling a medium to large-sized room with high-quality sound. I play them with my Yamaha TSR-5830 (which is not really a high end receiver) and I am very happy with the quality I get from these bookshelf, and I dont use sub anymore. Design and Build: The ebony finish is sleek and modern, I tried walnut too and they looked good too. Final Thoughts: If you're looking for high-end sound performance, stunning design, and reliable build quality, These bookshelf will certainly make you happy.
