Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The Reference Series RF-10 home theater system sets a benchmark for value in high-performance loudspeakers. This entry-level setup includes the smallest floorstander Klipsch has ever made, but still pushes the same advanced technology and visual sophistication as its respective predecessors. Consisting of a pair of RF-10 floorstanding speakers, an RC-10 center channel, a pair of RS-10 surround speakers and an RW-8 subwoofer, this recommended home theater system allows more people the opportunity to enjoy the ultimate sound experience in their homes.

The small RF-10 floorstanding speaker uses the same advanced technologies as Klipsch's larger Reference III floorstanders to deliver powerful sound with high sensitivity. It employs dual 4.5-inch woofers and a 1-inch titanium-dome compression driver loaded with a 5-inch square Tractrix horn.

The RC-10 center channel speaker is a great choice for any high-performance home theater system. It employs dual 4-inch woofers and a 1-inch titanium-dome compression driver loaded with a 4-inch square Tractrix horn for maximum clarity and efficiency. It features Klipsch's version of 2.5-way crossover technology, called tapered-array. With tapered-array, the two Cerametallic woofers work together to deliver high impact bass with one driver transitioning out at the mid-range frequencies. This provides more consistent coverage across the listening field, less tonal error and improved dialogue intelligibility.

The RS-10 surround speaker delivers precise sonic detail through the careful positioning of two Tractrix horns loaded titanium-dome tweeters and one 4-inch woofer. By aligning the two horns at 90 degrees with respect to each other, along with the front-firing woofer, the RS-10 smoothly covers a 180-degree horizontal arc, allowing maximum placement flexibility.

The compact RW-8 powered subwoofer delivers strong, clean bass from a decidedly small-footprint enclosure. And because both the driver and the port are at the front of the cabinet, the RW-8 can be placed back against a wall, deep into a corner, or even in custom cabinetry. The 8-inch woofer is powered by a high-efficiency amplifier, capable of 270 watts dynamic power output.

I am thrilled with the sound from this little floorstanders. Clean and strong bass. Clear highs and mids. Match very well with low wattage amplifiers (ours is 50 watts per channel). They are slim and very good looking. Ideal for stereo listening.

Bought these speakers based upon a recommendation of a forum poster whose opinion I value. They are great speakers. Don't let their size fool you. Using for the front speakers in a home theater setup.

I really enjoy listening to these speakers. Enough bass, that I've declined to add a powered subwoofer to my system. But, that's just my taste. I would have loved to have 5-8 inch woofers, but I really don't have the space to put bigger speakers, so this is an ideal compromise for us. Clean, crisp sound, makes all my music, DVDs, TV sound better.
I had a JBL Balboa center-channel speaker, and it works fine, together with these.
