Klipsch proprietary Tractrix® horn-loading technology ensures that the RP-404C center speaker's high-frequency sound energy is directed to the listener, reducing unwanted, artificial vibrations from wall-bouncing sounds – so you hear the clearest, most detailed, lifelike sound .

HORN ANATOMY
Klipsch Reference Premiere series speakers feature a compression molded silicone surface mated to a 90° x 90° Tractrix horn for smoother frequency response. Klipsch computer-built phase plugs act as a mechanical filter to provide a smooth , flat frequency response while protecting the tweeter from damage.

Linear Motion Suspension (LTS) Titanium Diaphragm Tweeter

Exclusive Linear Motion Suspension minimizes distortion for enhanced, detailed performance. LTS tweeters are the most distinguishing feature of the Reference series, making it a key component of the best speakers in the world.

VENTILATED TWEETER DESIGN

The new vented tweeter section reduces standing waves that create unwanted harmonics, resulting in improved detail and clarity in high frequency reproduction.
