Detailed Description

Klipsch designed the RF-5 floorstanding loudspeaker to provide remarkably sophisticated, detailed Reference Series-quality sound from a cabinet that’s smaller than the flagship RF-7.

This marvel uses dual 8-inch Cerametallic™ woofers and an 8-inch square Tractrix® Horn tweeter powered by a 1-inch titanium diaphragm compression driver to deliver vivid, powerful detail for two-channel or surround systems.

Using the same Tractrix Horn as the RF-7, the RF-5 has “outside the box” imaging and smooth midrange tonal balance for an incredible soundstage. A dual flared port helps deliver deep, authoritative bass without noise and compression. Audiophile-grade crossover components ensure peak performance across the entire sound spectrum, while a unique venting system keeps the driver’s motor and voice coil cool for superior reliability.
