Designed specifically for surround
use in home theater applications, the R-5650-S employs a 6.5-inch Cerametallic™
woofer and dual 1-inch titanium compression drivers. Because of its patented
horn array, which is two vertically stacked Tractrix® Horn-loaded tweeters
pointing in opposite directions, the R-5650-S outperforms conventional designs
by maximizing diffusion, clarity and efficiency, while minimizing room
interactions that blur sonic detail.
The R-5650-S draws listeners into
the middle of the action through the use of Klipsch's proprietary Wide
Dispersion Surround Technology or WDST™. The careful alignment of the two
controlled-directivity Tractrix Horn tweeters, angled opposite of one another,
yields an incredibly wide dispersion pattern.
Able to function in any standard
wall, ceiling or drop ceiling, the R-5650-S can be paired with the Klipsch
IK-650-W installation kit (sold separately). This revolutionary kit design
incorporates a mud ring, breakaway wire tie and color-coded brackets for easy
speaker size identification. It also includes perforated metal wings that easily
fasten to the studs via screws, staples or nails. Painted white for easy marking
and placement, these metal wings can be folded around the edge of the studs if
necessary.
