Klipsch RP-500SA II Reference Premiere Dolby Atmos® Surround/Height Speakers
Bring true cinematic height to your home theater with the Klipsch RP-500SA II Reference Premiere Dolby Atmos® Surround/Height Speakers. Purpose-built for versatility, each speaker can operate as an up-firing Atmos elevation module on top of compatible towers/monitors or as a direct-radiating height/rear surround with the flip of a switch. The Klipsch RP-500SA II is part of the Reference Premiere II Series. A 1" Titanium LTS vented tweeter mated to Klipsch’s Hybrid Cross-Section Expanded Tractrix® horn delivers crisp, dynamic highs with reduced distortion, while the 5.25" Cerametallic™ woofer (with Faraday rings) provides clean, impactful mid-bass. The sealed, internally braced MDF cabinet ensures tight response whether you’re bouncing height effects off the ceiling or mounting them as height/surround channels. Available in Ebony or Walnut finishes, the RP-500SA II integrates seamlessly with Reference Premiere systems—including RP floorstanders that accept the included Dolby Atmos jumpers—for a hemisphere of immersive sound.
