Product Overview

The Klipsch RP-500SA II is a highly adaptable loudspeaker designed to serve as either a Dolby Atmos elevation module or a wall-mounted surround speaker. As part of the Reference Premiere II series, it incorporates Klipsch’s latest acoustic advancements, including improved horn geometry and upgraded driver materials for enhanced resolution and dynamic impact.

Whether used as upward-firing height channels or mounted high on the wall as direct-radiating surrounds, the RP-500SA II provides a seamless, enveloping sound field and integrates perfectly with other Reference Premiere speakers.

Listening Experience

The RP-500SA II offers a precise, energetic and immersive presentation. The LTS tweeter housed in the updated Hybrid Tractrix horn delivers crisp, controlled high frequencies that define spatial cues and height information with exceptional accuracy.

The 5.25" Cerametallic woofer ensures clear, punchy midbass and stable output even during complex action scenes. Sound effects are projected with convincing realism, creating a cinematic sense of space and verticality that enriches both movies and gaming.

Recommended Room Size

Ideal for small to medium-sized home cinema rooms. Their compact size and strong dispersion characteristics allow effective placement even in acoustically challenging spaces.

Amplifier Pairing

The RP-500SA II pairs best with AV receivers or amplifiers providing **75 to 150 watts per channel**. Most modern home cinema receivers from Onkyo or Integra drive them easily and effectively.

Because they handle dynamic peaks extremely well, choosing an amplifier with good headroom will maximize their Atmos and surround performance.
