It carries the lions share of vocals and dialogue, as well as the music and sound effects found on most movie and TV soundtracks. Klipschs RP-450C is more than up to the challenge. This powerful center channel speaker from Klipschs latest Reference Premiere Series puts you right in the front row for exciting cinematic sound. The RP-450C features four 5-1/4 woofers for plenty of bass and midrange punch, plus Klipschs signature 1 horn tweeter for outstanding intelligibility and sparkling clear highs. The Reference Premiere Series difference Never one to rest on its laurels, Klipsch has been busy refining and improving its designs to create loudspeakers that blow the doors off of its loyal followers expectations. The new Reference Premiere Series builds on the acoustics and technologies of Klipschs classic Reference Series, with important enhancements that provide an even more intense listening experience. With its Hybrid Tractrix horn and Cerametallic woofers, the RP-450C center channel speaker is built to effortlessly deliver clear, powerful Klipsch sound. Hybrid Horn technology for dynamic performance Horn technology is one of Klipschs long-standing hallmarks. Flared openings in the speaker cabinet project sound waves toward your listening area and prevent them from simply spilling out in all directions. This design reduces reflections that can color the sound, and boosts dynamics and efficiency for powerful sound that remains crystal-clear at all volume levels. Klipschs newly designed Hybrid Tractrix® horn features a circular throat around an advanced titanium diaphragm tweeter that transitions into a square 90º x 90º mouth. This unique shape provides a cleaner, more efficient transition of sound waves into your listening space. Compared to previous Klipsch models, this horn design delivers a wider sweet spot with more precise placement of instruments and vocals. Even the horn material itself has been upgraded to molded silicone rubber that helps decrease resonance for smoother, warmer highs. The RP-450Cs Tractrix horn shaped port eliminates air turbulence for reduced noise and distortion. A horn that can enhance bass, too Look around the back, and youll see that instead of the conventional round port tube found on many speakers, Klipsch uses a Tractrix horn-shaped opening for smoother, more efficient airflow in and out of the cabinet. The resulting decrease in air turbulence makes for cleaner, more powerful bass with reduced port noise and low-frequency distortion. High-tech woofer design The RP-450Cs Cerametallic™ woofers dish out smooth midrange and articulate, well-defined bass. Klipsch makes its cones out of specially treated aluminum thats strong yet lightweight, to dampen and prevent distortion. With the Reference Premiere Series, Klipsch also gave these woofers newly developed titanium voice coil formers that allow more linear movement for enhanced efficiency, lower distortion, and extended low frequency response.
