Product Overview

The Klipsch RP-502S II is designed to deliver a highly immersive surround experience with exceptional clarity and detail. Part of the Reference Premiere II series, it features an advanced dual-side-firing design: two horn-loaded tweeters and two midbass drivers arranged to project sound across a wide area, filling the room with diffuse, cinematic energy.

This layout is ideal for rear or side surround duties, ensuring that sound effects wrap around the listener smoothly and naturally, enhancing both movies and gaming sessions.

Listening Experience

The RP-502S II produces a expansive, lively and deeply immersive surround field. High frequencies remain crisp and articulate thanks to Klipsch’s titanium LTS tweeters in Hybrid Tractrix® horns, while the dual Cerametallic™ woofers deliver fast, tight midbass that adds impact to action sequences and atmospheric detail.

The wide dispersion pattern creates an enveloping sound bubble, making surround effects feel natural and effortless—even for listeners seated off-axis. This ensures a consistent experience across multiple seating positions.

Recommended Room Size

These surrounds are ideal for medium to large home cinema rooms. Their wide radiation pattern allows them to energize spacious environments while maintaining excellent clarity and dynamic control.

Amplifier Pairing

The RP-502S II pairs best with home cinema receivers or amplifiers delivering 80 to 150 watts per channel. They are efficient, yet benefit from clean amplification capable of handling dynamic peaks.

Most modern AV receivers from brands such as Onkyo or Integra will drive them confidently, especially when used in 5.1, 7.1 or Atmos configurations.

Ideal Applications

• Side or rear surround channels in high-performance home cinema systems
• Immersive setups with Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD MA or DTS:X
