Features & specs

Features

Horn Loaded Tweeter: The Klipsch RF-7 III features a newly designed 1.75-inch titanium-diaphragm compression driver inside a molded rubber square Tractrix Horn for smoother high-end response with greater extension, enhanced imaging, and more powerful dynamics. The 8.5" square Tractrix Horn delivers a 90 ° (w) x 90 ° (h) dispersion pattern for a broader sound-stage.

• Tractrix Horn Tweeter: The Klipsch RF-7 III features a professional-grade 1.75" titanium-diaphragm compression driver inside a molded rubber square Tractrix Horn. The compression driver features a new phase plug design to improve phase coherency at the throat of the horn, resulting in improved sound pressure linearity at high frequencies.
• Molded Rubber Square Tractrix Horn: The redesigned Tractrix Horn utilizes a circular horn throat paired to a square horn mouth to further improve high-frequency response and extension, while enhancing imaging and dynamics. The compressed molded rubber construction adds high frequency damping to reduce harshness and improve detail. This creates the cleanest, most natural sound possible.

Dual Cerametallic Woofers: The dual 10" woofers of the RF-7 III feature Klipsch's distinctive, copper-spun Cerametallic cones. Made with an anodized aluminum, these cones are strong and dent resistant. The anodizing process converts their inner and outer surfaces to ceramic. Each 10" woofer feature a heavy-duty cast aluminum frame for resonant-free operation. In addition, each woofer incorporates a dual shorting-ring magnet structure design to eliminate modulation of the magnetic flux resulting in improved linearity of cone movement. The 10" woofers also employ a rubber surround for added durability. The outcome is a rigid cone with superb damping characteristics that will not flex or resonate at frequencies within the woofer's operating range.

Dual Chamber + Tractrix Port Enclosure: The RF-7 III's new bifurcated enclosure allows each 10" woofer and port to work independently from the other. This improves the linearity of both drive systems, and minimizes standing wave problems inside the cabinet that can cause frequency anomalies in the sensitive midrange frequencies. Utilizing Tractrix geometry, the new RF-7 III ports allow for the most efficient air transfer from the cabinet for a clean, powerful low frequency response. The enclosure features a MDF construction with a beautiful furniture-grade wood veneer, plus improved internal cross-bracing to minimize panel vibrations that can color sound.

Dual Binding Posts: The speaker has two sets of binding posts connected by jumpers. Using the dual binding posts, you can bi-amp or bi-wire the speakers (make sure to remove the jumpers in this scenario). The binding post terminals will accept banana plugs (single only), pin-connectors, spade-connectors, and bare wire (16AWG - 10AWG).

• Bi-Wiring: Bi-wiring can provide noticeable improvements in the overall transparency of your loudspeakers. Run separate speaker wires to the low & high frequency drivers from a single amplifier (the upper set of binding posts are for the high frequency drivers; the lower set of binding posts are for the low frequency drivers).
• Bi-Amping: Bi-amping allows you to use separate amplifiers for the high & low frequency sections of your loudspeaker for greater dynamic range & lower distortion. We recommend that your separate amplifiers have identical gain to preserve the speaker's voicing balance.

Magnetic Grille: The RF-7 III floor-standing loudspeaker features a removable magnetic grille which easily snaps into place over its cast-aluminum front baffle. The speaker can be used with or without its grille in place.

Plinth w/ Spike or Rubber Feet: The Klipsch RF-7 III floor-standing loudspeaker is supplied with a plinth which acts as the speaker's base (four screws are included to mount the plinth to the bottom of the speaker). Self-adhesive rubber feet are included to prevent surface damage on hardwood, vinyl, laminate, ceramic, and tile flooring (these rubber feet stick to the bottom of the plinth). Spike feet are also included to enhance performance and stability on carpeted floors (the spike feet screw into the bottom of the plinth).

• Speaker Dimensions w/ Plinth Only: 13.9375" (w) x 49.0625" (h) x 17.9375" (d)
• Speaker Dimensions w/ Plinth & Rubber Feet: 13.9375" (w) x 49.25" (h) x 17.9375" (d)
• Speaker Dimensions w/ Plinth & Spike Feet: 13.9375" (w) x 50.0625" (h) x 17.9375" (d)

Placement: The Reference III Series floor-standing loudspeaker is designed to perform well in a wide variety of locations, but you will get the most out of the speaker by following these simple guidelines.

• Place on a common wall 6' to 15' apart.
• Position them equidistant from the back wall.
• Angle speakers toward the listener and even with or forward of any adjacent obstructions.
• Placing them near a corner or wall provides the greatest amount of bass, while moving the speakers away from room boundaries reduces bass response.
• Asymmetrical placement of a pair of speakers from adjacent side walls can smooth room-induced bass unevenness.

USA Made: The Klipsch Reference III loudspeaker is built to order and handmade in the USA at Klipsch's manufacturing facility in Arkansas.

Freight & Oversized Items

Some large or heavy products — including floor-standing speakers, large subwoofers, and TVs — ship via freight carrier rather than standard parcel courier. For these items:

• Delivery times may be longer than standard shipping; we’ll confirm an estimate with you before your order ships.
• Someone must be present to receive the delivery.

Shipping Damage Policy

If the shipping box shows signs of physical damage, we recommend inspecting the product while the shipping company is present. Minor punctures or dents to the box do not often result in damage to the well-padded product inside, so a refusal of delivery is generally not necessary for minor box imperfections. However, should the product itself show signs of damage, it must be refused at the time of delivery for an RMA. Products not refused due to damage at the time of delivery will not be eligible for RMAs. To ensure your full rights to warranty and potential future claims, please have the delivery company note any box damage on file, even if the product itself appears undamaged.
