Manufacturer description

Klipsch proves great things do come in small packages with the compact RSX-5 Satellite loudspeaker from its top-selling Reference Series. This sophisticated, advanced monitor brings stylish simplicity to the world's most sought after home entertainment products line. Because of its seamless design and placement flexibility, the RSX-5 can deliver jaw-dropping sound in virtually any space. It can serve as either a left or right monitor, as well as a surround speaker. The RSX-5 delivers incredibly dynamic and accurate sound by utilizing a 1-inch titanium-dome compression driver coupled to Klipsch's new round MicroTractrix Horn. This magnetically shielded speaker also employs a 5.25-inch woofer to capture every sonic detail. The woofer is a long-throw unit powered by a unique neodymium motor structure. The Cerametallic cone is lightweight with excellent rigidity, which dramatically reduces any resonance. As a result, the RSX-5 is capable of robust bass extending low enough for comfortable operation with today's built-in A/V preamp/processor and receiver crossovers. As with all Reference Series models, the RSX-5 uses high-quality network components and top-of-the-line internal wiring for proper driver blending with minimal degradation of the incoming signals. These premium features ensure pure and distinct performances. The RSX-5 sports a modern look that comes in a black or silver finish and was designed to handle multiple installation applications. The satellite's integrated pedestal stand with ball joint allow it to be adjusted in almost any direction by simply using the provided allen wrench. Keyholes are provided on underside of the stand base for no-hassle wall mounting. The satellite's magnetic grille easily snaps into place over its cast-aluminum front baffle, while sturdy five-way binding posts ensure secure connection to any type of cable. This affordable Reference Satellite comes individually packaged for mix-and-match simplicity. It is also sold as part of the Klipsch Cinema 10 home theater package. And, thanks to Sanus Systems, accessory upgrades such as satellite floor stands are also available. The Euro Foundations black EFSatB and silver EFSatS are a perfect match for the RSX-5 and can be purchased directly from Sanus. This small and stylized, yet tough loudspeaker, belts out an amazing sound that's sure to leave listeners speechless.
