Fantastically clear

Primarily watch movies and TV. I especially enjoy sci-fi and action movies. This speaker is extremely clear - which is what you want for a center, where all the dialog comes from. My previous center was loud but never could cut it for projecting voice and dialog, sometimes it was muffled or just not ...clear. This Klipsch was a NOTICEABLE immediate improvement in vocal clarity. I can hear everything being said now, even on some movies that have a rather bad dialog mix/levels, its improved a lot. Even at low listening volumes this still produces good vocals. All the rest of the center channel action of course is equally clear and discernable. I'm extremely happy with this speaker.

Bigger Horn | Better Sound
Hear every word of the dialogue and lyrics with crystal-clear precision. A new, larger 90 Degree x 90 Degree silicone composite hybrid Tractrix horn provides incredibly efficient transfer of high-frequency waves into the listening area to create a crisper, clearer sound.

Linear Travel Suspension (LTS) Titanium Diaphragm Tweeter
The exclusive 1" LTS minimizes distortion for enhanced, detailed performance. LTS tweeters are a hallmark of previous Reference Premiere Series, making it a core component of some of the best speakers in the world.

Vented Tweeter Design
The vented tweeter housing reduces standing waves that create unwanted harmonics, resulting in enhanced detail and clarity in high-frequency reproduction.

All-New Cerametallic Woofers
A signature feature on the Reference Premiere series speakers, the dual 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.

Tractrix Port
Utilizing Tractrix geometry, the Reference Premiere port allows for the most efficient, fastest air transfer from the cabinet, which reduces port noise for punchier low frequencies and cleaner, more powerful bass.

New Look | Amazing sound

New And Improved Input Panel
Featuring audiophile-grade wire and easily accessible aluminum binding posts.

Strong, Flexible, Removable Grille
Attaches magnetically for an elegant transition from powerful showstopper to discrete performance piece.

Advanced Cabinet Design
Additional bracing minimizes resonance and vibration.

Furniture Grade Materials And Finishes
Ebony vinyl and walnut vinyl finish boast satin-painted baffles and a scratch-resistant finish.

Cork Pads
Cork pads replace rubber bumpers for security on a stand or table.

High-Fidelity Home Audio
Redesigned, the Reference Premiere Series combines Klipsch signature acoustic expertise with cutting-edge technology to deliver the new gold standard in premium home theater and hi-fi listening solutions.
