    • RMS Power: 150 watts (The maximum amount of continuous power the device is able to handle.)
    • Peak Power Handling: 600 watts (The maximum amount of power an electronic device, like a speaker, can handle without damage. This refers to short bursts of power, while root mean square (RMS) power handling indicates the amount of continuous power a device can sustain. Higher levels of distortion can also occur at peak power levels when the device is powered beyond its recommended usage.)
    • Impedance: 8 ohms (Describes the resistance of an electric signal throughout the system. Devices with low impedance require less power to deliver optimal signals but are more at risk for damage from overloading. Higher impedance requires more power but is more protected from overload damage.)
    • Minimum Frequency Response: 25 hertz (Describes the maximum range of frequencies or musical tones a product can reproduce, from very low tones to very high treble tones. The minimum frequency or musical tone the speaker can reproduce. High treble tones have higher frequencies while low tones and deep bass have lower frequencies.)
    • Maximum Frequency Response: 50 kilohertz (Describes the maximum range of frequencies or musical tones a product can reproduce, from very low tones to very high treble tones. The maximum frequency or musical tone the speaker can reproduce. High treble tones have higher frequencies while low tones and deep bass have lower frequencies.)
    • Sensitivity: 96 decibels
    • High Resolution Audio: false (Hear music the way musicians and sound technicians intended it to be heard. Products that support hi-res audio deliver audio signals with a dynamic range and bandwidth far greater than that of a standard CD so you'll be able to enjoy pure music with outstanding sound quality. The device supports high-resolution audio signals, which more closely resemble the quality of music as it was originally recorded, with more texture and detail than can be heard via typical music streaming services or CDs.)

The third generation of Klipsch's award-winning premium Reference Premiere Series 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.

  • Larger horn: 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 5.25” 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.
  • 50Hz - 25kHz frequency response: Ensures a wide range of accurately reproduced sound.
  • 96dB 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.
  • Cork pads: Cork pads replace rubber bumpers for security on a stand or table.
  • Vented tweeter design: The vented tweeter housing reduces standing waves that create unwanted harmonics, resulting in enhanced detail and clarity in high-frequency reproduction.

  • Rated 5 out of 5 stars

    LOVE IT

    CRYSTAL CLEAR SOUND, I LOVE IT! BIG DIFFERENCE COMPARE WITH MY OLD SYSTEM.

  • Rated 5 out of 5 stars

    Absolute killer unit for the price!

    I added this to a pair of Klipsch RF-802 floor speakers with a Denon 5.2 receiver, replacing a decades-old Yamaha center channel, and the difference was HUGE! If you only had one good speaker, I'd recommend the splurge on this center channel. The highs are very clear, the kids and vocals are THERE, and you can even hear clean bass out of it (receiver cutoff set at 40hz and it does not complain).
