Klipsch RP-500C II Center Channel Speaker - Ebony | Reference Premiere

Elevate Dialogue and Music with the Klipsch RP-500C II Center Channel

The RP-500C II center speaker anchors your home theater with a tactile sense of presence, from movie dialogue to lyric-driven songs. Its larger Tractrix horn delivers voices with a lifelike front-row immediacy, while the ebony finish adds a refined touch that suits modern living spaces. This is a center channel designed to complement your favorite films and music with clarity you can feel and hear across the room.

At the heart of the RP-500C II is a reimagined Tractrix horn configuration. A bigger, 90° x 90° horn guides sound with crisper, more articulate dialogue that sits precisely between your left and right channels. Paired with an updated 1-inch LTS titanium tweeter, the high frequencies stay refined even during dynamic scenes, reducing distortion and preserving the intent of the mix. The vented tweeter design further enhances detail, so your listening experience remains faithful to the original recording while still sounding robust in a home setting.

Two newly tuned Cerametallic woofers deliver clean, controlled bass with minimum distortion, while the Tractrix port geometry ensures fast, efficient air transfer from the cabinet. The result is a cleaner bass foundation that supports both movie action and musical crescendos without overwhelming the midrange or highs. The speaker’s furniture-grade cabinet and ebony finish offer a statement piece that blends with most decors, and the removable magnetic grille provides flexibility in how you present the speaker in your room.
