R-5502-W II
VERSATILE LCR SPEAKER UPDATED WITH THE LATEST TECHNOLOGY
The Klipsch R-5502-W II maintains the core technology use of a premium
1” Titanium compression driver (tweeter) mated to an exclusive Tractrix®
Horn combined with dual 5.25” Cerametallic™ woofers in a 2-way
design. The R-5502-W II is perfect as a very powerful front right, left or
center channel speaker and can fill the largest rooms with sound. Now
with a new low profile, more elegant grille and refinements to both high
frequency and low frequency reproduction, it continues as the perfect
choice for every thing from 2-channel music playback to full, large room
surround sound use.
THE UPDATE FOR YOUR EYES: THE NEW SLIMTRIM™ GRILLE
With an all new grille, the visible frame size is reduced by 90% and grille
depth is reduced by 80% over the previous design, for a more edge-toedge consistent look that blends in with the wall more attractively. The
new aluminum, paintable, magnetic grille attaches tightly and securely
with ease to virtually eliminate resonant distortion.
PIVOTING TRACTRIX HORN
Klipsch horn-loaded technology increases acoustic output while
significantly reducing distortion. The horn’s 90° x 90° dispersion
pattern directs high frequencies identically whether speaker is mounted
vertically or horizontally (as a center). Horn pivots +/- 15° to aim sound
directly at the main listening area. This feature sends more direct sounds
to the listener and less reflected sounds for more detailed sound, wider
dynamics and better vocal clarity.
TITANIUM DIAPHRAGM COMPRESSION DRIVER (TWEETER) WITH
LINEAR TRAVEL SUSPENSION (LTS)
Combined with the Tractrix Horn, the one-inch, solid-formed, very
lightweight metallic diaphragm works in conjunction with a precise
phasing plug at the horn throat to create a highly efficient driver with
excellent transient response and lack of distortion. The new Linear Travel
Suspension assures the most precise diaphragm excursion, increasing
high-frequency detail and smoothness.
MACHINE-SPUN CERAMETALLIC™ WOOFERS
The dual woofers utilize solid Aluminum diaphragms, anodized to add
stif fness and provide perfect damping, and have a new hi-tech look that
also delivers increased rigidity for even tighter, more defined bass. The
new integrated dust caps further strengthen the cones and help ventilate
the voice coils for increased driver durability.
FRONT IR KNOCKOUT
Allows installation of standard, .5” tube-type, IR repeater device.
SURE-GRIP MOUNTING DOGS
Provide even pressure against drywall for long-term installation reliability.
COMPATIBLE WITH THE KLIPSCH IK-502-W INSTALL KIT
