Klipsch RC-52 II Center Speaker (PL)

Klipsch RC-52 II 

The black Klipsch RC-52 II Center Speaker features dual 5.25" Cerametallic woofers and Klipsch's unique 1" titanium linear travel Tractrix Horn technology. It has a frequency response of 67 Hz all the way up to 24 kHz, and a power handling of 125 watts RMS at 8 ohms. The speaker has a crossover frequency at 1600 Hz, and it has been redesigned to have a higher efficiency output than its earlier predecessor, delivering more sound with less inputted energy required. The magnetically shielded drivers help prevent TV interference. The RC-52 II was engineered to feature entertaining sound, have minimized distortion, and have a larger soundstage with well-defined imaging.

The Klipsch technicians have focused on designing the RC-52 II with an attention to cabinetry aesthetics, and, as a result, the speaker features a black wood-grain vinyl veneer finish, refreshed logos and rounded, tilt-able feet, for placement above or below seated ear height.

The light, yet rigid Cerametallic woofer cones feature specially treated aluminum to help better dampen and prevent distortion. This speaker features a titanium tweeter with linear travel suspension. This provides an open, more natural sound. The enhanced crossover frequency offers smoother on-axis and off-axis integration.
