Practically hidden home theater
Designed specifically for use in a home theater application, the Klipsch Reference Series R5650S is engineered to deliver great sound while remaining unobtrusive wherever it is installed. Its features earned it the distinction of being rated as the best in-wall speaker in its price-range. The speaker features a patent-pending horn array, which is two vertically stacked Tractrix® Horn-loaded tweeters pointing in opposite directions. The result is a flush-mount speaker that creates enveloping sound fields and localizing specific surround effects through the use of Klipsch's proprietary Wide Dispersion Surround Technology. The careful alignment of the two controlled-directivity Tractrix Horn tweeters, angled opposite one another, yields an incredibly wide dispersion pattern.
Tractrix what?
Tractrix® Horns have always been the key component of many Klipsch speakers. It's a horn-shaped device inside the speaker that sends sound effortlessly into the room. The Tractrix Horn's carefully calculated flare dramatically increases driver efficiency, allowing production of very high sound levels with minimal amplifier power and no strain or distortion. It also controls the sound's directivity, ensuring excellent coverage of the listening area while minimizing detail-obscuring reflections off of walls, floor, and ceiling. Fed by a smooth, accurate titanium-dome tweeter, the Tractrix Horn is the key to the vibrantly realistic, emotionally compelling Klipsch Sound Experience.
Cerematallic whosit??
So much more than just a pretty face, the R5650W's rugged Cerametallic Cone woofer generates deep, powerful bass. Its distinctive anodized-aluminum — and oh-so-pretty — copper-colored cone exhibits a very high stiffness-to-mass ratio and superb damping characteristics that translate to outstanding responsiveness and near-total absence of resonance and breakup. The result is quick, clean, articulate low-frequency reproduction. A rigid cast frame — far superior to conventional stamped-steel baskets — maintains perfect alignment of the large, high-temperature voice coil. Beauty and beast, all in one speaker, yes!
