Klipsch PRO-18RC In-Ceiling Speaker

About The Klipsch PRO-18RC In-Ceiling Speaker

Using the same acoustic components and horn material as the highly acclaimed Klipsch Reference box speaker line, the Professional Reference Architectural series perfectly combines the aesthetics of an architectural speaker with the pure performance and dynamic voicing of the Klipsch Reference series. With an 8″ (203mm) Injection Moulded Graphite (IMG) Woofer and a 1″ (25mm) Aluminium Dome Tweeter mated to a round Tractrix horn, the PRO-18RC brings dynamic, powerful, detailed Klipsch Reference sound to your distributed audio or home theatre system.

Securefit Installation System: The exclusive modular installation system allows for the dog legs to be engaged by hand to a preset clamping force, eliminating the possibility of over torqueing, which can lead to breaking the dog leg or cracking the drywall. The speaker module is then screwed to the bezel (using machine screws instead of traditional drywall screws) for a more robust, acoustically stable installation than the competition.

Controlled Dispersion Technology: CDT technology allows for the tweeter and the woofer to be aimed up to 15 in any direction, helping to ensure on-axis frequency response at almost any listening position.

All New, Bezel-Free Magnetic Grille: A completely redesigned powder coated magnetic steel grille eliminates the bezel for seamless, pristine integration into the living space.

Round & Square Grilles Included: Architectural speakers not only need to sound great, but blend in seamlessly with even the most luxurious interior designs. The Professional Series Reference Premiere in-ceiling speakers include both round and square grilles in the box, so they look great in any space right out of the box.

PVC Paint Shield Included: Also included is a magnetic PVC paint shield that can be used to cover the speaker module to protect it from paint or construction dust during renovations or remodels.
