I love this center channel. I replaced Polk center channel that I thought sounded ok, but I decided to match my Klipsch sub, front, and rear with the center channel. I heard the difference immediately with the voice clarity a low volumes and high volumes the clarity comes through.

Paired this with the RP 600 book shelf speakers, an older sub and surround speakers. So so clear! Replacing all my old speakers with the RP line. Quality is great. Can really hear a pin drop. They take a week or two to break in so give them time.

First time purchasing Klipsch. Impressed with the sound quality in our large hard surface room. I don't know much about what brands or products work best but it pairs well with a sony receiver.

Tweeters are smoother than previous models, makes dialogue very clear, centers the image during movies very well, and looks great without the cover!

Big upgrade from standard Reference series

I previously had the standard reference R-25C in my setup for many years and felt it was time for an upgrade. Upgrade indeed! This RP-500C is very nice improvement in clarity, definition, and low end performance. With its closed cabinet, the old R-25C always sounded boxy and didn't have good response under 120Hz in my opinion. The RP-500C fixes all of that with its ported design and deeper cabinet. In fact, I found the smoothest response with my crossover to my sub set at 60Hz for the center channel. Paired with my RP-250Fs and RP-140SA Atmos modules, my front sound stage really comes together now.

You can spend a lot more, but for the money, this is a great addition to any surround system. The dialogue is crisp and clear. Highly recommended.

Exactly what I've come to expect from Klipsch products. Was an upgrade from a Klipsch satellite speaker combo.

Dialogue is clearest ever heard in center channel

over the years I’ve had many center channels and they were all plagued with soft and muffled dialogue reproduction. Not this Klipsch model. Even the softest dialogue is presented with clarity and energy. This center channel also blends in well with non-Klipsch speakers so you don’t have to change all your speakers to match this center but I’m sure an all Klipsch home theater would be amazing to hear.

Replacing Home Theater Speakers

To add Dolby Atmos to my home theater system (was a 7.1), I needed to purchase some more speakers. All my HT speakers were Boston Acoustics since 2001. Since BA is no more, I decided to make some of my current BAs as my Dolby Atmos speakers and replace the others with Klipsch/SVS. I was debating between the RP-500C and RP-504C for my center. Since I purchase some SVS subs, these center specs were almost the same and with a $400+ price difference between the two at the time of purchase, I purchased the RP-500C. I am very pleased with this speaker being my center. It does the job great.

Best center channel speaker ever for crisp and clear sound. Much easier to discern words. Did not realize it would make such a difference in a system of similar Klipsch speakers. By far, this was the best of all other speakers in spite of no price break, still good value. Wish they'd go on sale sometime.
