6.5" Two-Way In-Wall Loudspeaker

RCW-3

Sophisticated design, premium materials, and
exceptional performance make Reference
Series architectural speakers the logical choice
where quality is as important as stealth. The
RCW-3 is a compact, easy to install in-wall
model that delivers sound so good you won’t
believe where it’s coming from. It works
extremely well in high-end distributed-sound
systems, multi-room home music systems, and
low-visual-impact home theater installations
— any application where you need really good
loudspeakers to be heard but not seen. And
because they share so many design elements
with our freestanding Reference Series
speakers, their sound blends perfectly in
mixed systems, giving you maximum flexibility.

A 6.5-inch Cerametallic™ cone woofer with a
cast-polymer frame and a motor structure far
heftier than usual for such a speaker give the
RCW-3 a solid bass foundation that defies its
size. The titanium dome compression driver
tweeter is mated to a 5-inch square 90° x 60°

®

Klipsch Tractrix
focus the sound where it’s needed, which is a
great advantage when the speaker must be
mounted in a less-than-ideal location. Tweeter
and midbass attenuation controls give an
added measure of control in tailoring
the speaker’s output to the acoustics of
its environment.
