RF-7 FLOORSTANDER Prepare to be surprised by what you havent heard in your favorite music and movies. The RF-7, created by Klipsch to be the ultimate loudspeaker for the home environment, uncovers material youve never heard before -“ with quality thats even better than your favorite theater. The RF-7, with 102dB sensitivity, plays louder with less distortion than perhaps any loudspeaker youve ever heard. It mates an 8" square Tractrix ® Horn to a 1.75" titanium diaphragm compression driver powered by a remarkably large, video-shielded magnet. Together, they deliver accurate, non-fatiguing midrange and high frequencies at any volume level, with substantially less detail-robbing distortion. Two 10" Cerametallic -„¢ woofers with 90-ounce magnets provide powerful, deep bass free from sonic blur. A pair of large flared ports bolster bass response while reducing turbulence. The biwireable, audiophile-grade crossover improves imaging and detail across the sound spectrum, with frequency-specific Monster Cable ®Z-Series wiring used for optimum clarity. Dual windowpane bracing and cast metal woofer frames control resonance at even the most intense volume, while broad-stance outrigger feet add stability and allow easy leveling on any surface. To complete the experience, the RF-7 is finished in furniture-grade blond maple, medium cherry or jet ash wood veneers.RC-7CENTER CHANNEL The RC-7 center channel delivers crisp dialogue, along with the deepest bass impact and highest sensitivity (98dB) in its class. The RC-7 uses the same 1.75" titanium diaphragm compres- sion driver and 8" square Tractrix ® Horn as the RF-7, along with two 8" Cerametallic -„¢woofers. Through tapered array technology, both woofers reproduce deep bass, while only one covers the lower midrange frequencies for clearer dialogue and more consistent coverage with less tonal shift. Two flared ports ensure deep bass and full-range response. The RC-7 is available in blond maple, medium cherry and jet ash finishes. RS-7SURROUND The RS-7 surround speaker boasts sensitivity of 98dB, which is virtually unheard of in a surround loud- speaker. It uses a single 8" woofer and two 8" square Tractrix ®Horns with 1" titanium diaphragm compression drivers. Wide Dispersion Surround Technology -„¢ensures a dynamic surround experience throughout the listening room. Deep, powerful bass and full-range response is achieved, in part, by the RS-7s twin ports. The RS-7 is available in an unobtrusive black or white vinyl finish. RSW-15SUBWOOFER The RSW-15 powered subwoofer works with the RF-7, RC-7 and RS-7 to complete our finest Reference Series home theater system. Our Reference flagship delivers performance youve never experienced The unmistakable copper color of our exclusive Cerametallic -„¢woofer cones does more than provide the distinctive Klipsch Reference look. Specially treated aluminum with ceramic outer surfaces creates cones that are light, yet rigid with significantly better damping to prevent distortion. The Klipsch T ractrix ®Horn is mated to a titanium compression driver for incredible detail and accuracy, while the optimal 90º x 60º coverage pattern ensures precise localization and expansive soundstaging.
