ABOUT YOUR KLIPSCH PURCHASE

Your new Klipsch architectural speakers have been designed to deliver great sound while remaining unobtrusive wherever you install them. They feature 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 ambient sound fields and localizing specific surround effects through the use of Klipsch’s proprietary Wide Dispersion Surround Technology (WDST™). The careful alignment of the two controlled-directivity Tractrix Horn tweeters, angled opposite one another, yields an incredibly wide dispersion pattern.

The R-5650-S is designed specifically for surround use in home theater applications.

In-Wall Speaker Placement

Designed to function in any standard wall, ceiling or drop ceiling, Klipsch in-wall speakers are engineered for years of perform- ance. Minimum construction requirements call for drywall or other mounting surfaces to be at least 3/8" thick.

To maximize performance, speakers should be placed to either side of the listening postion at an equal distance from the listener whenever possible. You may also install them behind or above the listening position and achieve good results.
