Small but mighty

I am now using these RP-5000F towers as side surrounds. My LCR are RP-6000Fs along with the RP-504C. I have two sets of RP-500SA as front and rear heights. Having all of your woofers relatively the same size seems to be advantageous for object tracking and sound panning within the room. These are very capable speakers, you can use them in a 2.0 system, as main Left and Right, or as surrounds.

I have two of these, the r-41SA atmos speakers sitting on top of them, an rp-500C center, and 2 R-100 subs. The floor stands crush it. you might as well be in the theater. the Titanium tweeters make listening to dubstep an absolute treat as well. It could hurt my ears if i'm not careful. Haven't had to write that in a review before. the lows on these floorstands LITERALLY blow my curtains back when they hit. Along with the subs, the back of my theater system is an interactive environment lol. I highly recommend a full Klipsch system, and definitely these speakers. Just make sure you have a receiver that can push AT LEAST 90W. the specs says the minimum is 100W so don't go below the denon AVR-S960H.

Don't expect more than 10-12 yrs

I bought a predecessor to this speaker, the RF-52, in 2009. The sound is excellent, and so it would be a solid 5, but we now have dead tweeters and Klipsch made the speaker obsolete and impossible to fix. This would be a very easy swap if they just supported this not-so-old product, but now I'm off for new speakers and sad to go elsewhere in search of better support.

Fallen in love with this pair

Returned my BAR48 which had some major issues and finally settled with these beauts! Let me tell you one thing. I have tried many speakers, Jbl, bose, creative, polk etc there is something that RP5000 has that will make you keep coming back to this pair. They are an absolute delight to listen and sing all the. I found my hearing notes at another level. Be it at low or high volumes they are crisp and clean, and have sufficient bass for my 15*40 ft hall paired with a denon X2600H, rp400c and r41m. Zero muddle!! And they look beautiful with the copper lining and tractrix horn. The aesthetic essence is top notch. Go for these without even thinking twice unless you want thx setup which is separate league in its own. Definitely "Keepers of Sound" ?? they are perfect even for people with space constraints.

The Klipsch RP-5000F floorstanding speaker takes your movies and music to a new level. Featuring our proprietary hybrid Tractrix horn-loaded technology and dual 5.25" spun copper Cerametallic woofers, this floorstanding speaker is the ideal home theater audio solution.

Hybrid Tractrix Horn Technology
Klipsch proprietary Tractrix horn-loaded technology ensures the high-frequency energy of the RP-5000F floorstanding speaker is aimed directly at the listener and reduces unwanted, artificial reverb caused by indirect sound bouncing off walls - meaning you experience the most clear, detailed, lifelike sound possible.

Horn Anatomy
Klipsch Reference Premiere series speakers feature a compressed molded silicon face thats matted to the 90x90 Tractrix horn to reduces horn resonance for a smoother frequency response. Klipsch computer modeled phase plugs acts as a mechanical filter to further ensure a smooth, flat frequency response while protecting the tweeter from damage.

All-New Vented Tweeter
A vented tweeter design reduces standing waves behind the tweeter diaphragm for a smoother high frequency reproduction.

The titanium tweeter diaphragm's light weight yet rigid composition exceeds the performance of aluminum, polymer or silk tweeters.

Klipsch award-winning Linear Travel Suspension technology leverages a piston motion of the titanium diaphragm that lowers distortion and delivers real-to-life sound.

A ceramic magnet housing provides premium performance, Klipsch Reference Premiere tweeters set the standard in acoustic reproduction.

Cerametallic Woofers
Klipsch Proprietary Cerametallic woofers are the RP-5000F floorstanding speaker signature statement for both sound and aesthetics. This extremely light, rigid materials holds its shape while being able to deliver lower frequencies with maximum efficiency.

Woofer Anatomy
Klipsch Cerametallic cones are matted to a dual-layer, copper-wound voice coil for exceptional conductivity.

Reference Premiere woofers are housed in a non-resonating, stamped-steel basket that's secured to a large magnet motor for exceptional efficiency and low distortion, and matched to our horn-loaded tweeters for optimal acoustic execution.

Tractrix Port + Dual Terminals
The rear Tractrix port is perfectly matched to the cabinet and woofers, creating ideal airflow with minimal distortion or turbulence even at the lowest frequencies.

The RP-5000F floorstanding speaker features dual input terminals so you can bi-wire or bi-amp your speakers for a custom, high-performance experience.

Finished to Perfection
The RP-5000F ebony and walnut finishes boast satin painted baffles with a scratch resistant design. The cast aluminum feet provides a modern look with less resonance than MDF or ABS plastic. It is mechanically designed to minimize surface area in contact with the floor, decoupling the speaker for faster, tighter low frequencies and more detail.
