Dual 4'' Two-Way Center Channel

RC-10

Part of the new Reference 10 family, the RC- 10 center channel adds a new value point to Klipsch’s best-selling Reference Series line by offering the same advanced technology and world-class materials as the Reference III center channels but from a smaller enclosure and at a lower price point.

The RC-10 employs dual 4-inch woofers and a 1-inch titanium-dome compression driver loaded with a 4-inch square Tractrix® Horn for maximum clarity and efficiency.

This center channel also utilizes Klipsch’s Tapered-Array™ Technology, a 2.5-way design that minimizes the acoustical interference between drivers that plagues most horizontal center-channel speakers. This technology allows both woofers to create intense bass, while only one works with the tweeter to produce the midrange. The result is a smooth, clear sound not just directly in front of the speaker, but off to the sides as well, where conventional center speakers often exaggerate or mask sounds.

The woofers on the RC -10 still feature Klipsch’s distinctive, copper-colored Cerametallic™ material. Made with an anodized aluminum, these cones are strong with low mass. The anodizing process converts their inner and outer surfaces to ceramic. The outcome is a rigid cone with superb damping characteristics that will not flex or resonate at frequencies within the woofer’s operating range.

As in all Reference Series speakers, the RC- 10 crossover network is constructed using extremely high-quality components including top-of-the-line internal wiring, polyester film- type capacitors and an air-core inductor to ensure signal purity and proper driver integration.

Available in a black ash vinyl finish, the RC-10 features a low-diffraction sculpted baffle and a magnetically attached grille for an elegant fit and finish.

RC-10 specifications

The Klipsch RC-10 is a compact yet powerful center channel speaker designed to deliver exceptional sound quality and performance in home theater setups. Known for its meticulous engineering and innovative technologies, the RC-10 aims to provide an immersive audio experience that enhances movie watching and music listening alike.

One of the standout features of the RC-10 is its Tractrix Horn technology. This unique design benefits from a horn-loaded tweeter that effectively controls high-frequency dispersion. The result is clear and detailed sound reproduction of dialogue, which is essential for any home theater system. By directing sound to the listening area while reducing room reflections, the Tractrix Horn ensures that vocals and intricate sounds remain crisp and uninterrupted.

The RC-10 also employs a 5.25-inch woofer made of injection-molded graphite. This material is known for its strength and stiffness, allowing the woofer to reproduce deeper bass with minimal distortion. Coupled with the speaker’s well-designed cabinet, the RC-10 musters a startling amount of low-frequency output for its size, making it a favorite for those who want robust sound without taking up excessive space.

Another characteristic worth noting is the RC-10's elegant design. Its sleek, modern aesthetics and available finishes allow it to blend seamlessly into any decor. The low-profile speaker can be easily placed on a shelf or mounted on a wall, providing users the flexibility to set up their home theater in a way that suits their room's layout and style.

Klipsch has also prioritized durability in the RC-10. The cabinet is constructed from high-quality materials that minimize cabinet resonances, ensuring clean and clear audio. Additionally, the design includes a magnetic grille, giving it a clean look while protecting the drivers from dust and damage.

Designed for versatility, the RC-10 can easily integrate with other Klipsch speakers in a surround sound setup, making it a perfect fit for those looking to expand their audio system in the future. Overall, the Klipsch RC-10 stands out for its combination of advanced technologies, exceptional sound clarity, and stylish design, making it an ideal choice for audiophiles and casual listeners alike seeking an upgrade to their home audio experience.
