RP-8000F II Floorstanding Speakers

Product description (Klipsch RP8000F II)

The Klipsch RP-8000F II is a 2.5-way floorstanding speaker designed for both high-fidelity music and immersive home theater systems. It features upgraded components from its predecessor and is noted for its efficiency, dynamic sound, and detailed performance.

Product features (Klipsch RP8000F II)

Acoustic technology

• 90° x 90° Silicone Composite Hybrid Tractrix Horn: A larger second-generation horn design provides a crisper, clearer sound with smooth frequency response by focusing high-frequency sound directly toward the listening area.
• 1″ LTS Titanium Diaphragm Tweeter: This Linear Travel Suspension (LTS) tweeter is a core component of the Reference Premiere series, minimizing distortion for more detailed performance.
• Vented Tweeter Design: The housing for the tweeter is vented, which reduces standing waves that cause unwanted harmonics, resulting in enhanced clarity.
• Dual 8″ Cerametallic Woofers: These newly designed, lightweight, and rigid woofers are highly efficient and feature aluminum shorting rings for reduced distortion and improved power handling.
• Tractrix Ports: The rear-firing bass ports use Tractrix geometry to allow for efficient and fast airflow from the cabinet, minimizing port noise and creating cleaner, more powerful bass.

Design and construction

• Advanced Cabinet Design: The cabinet is internally braced and divided to minimize resonance and vibration, which helps improve overall clarity and transparency.
• Premium Finishes: The speakers come in ebony and walnut vinyl finishes and feature a scratch-resistant satin-painted baffle for a premium, modern look.
• Cast Aluminum Feet: These feet are mechanically designed to minimize the surface area touching the floor, which helps decouple the speaker and results in faster, tighter bass.
• Removable Magnetic Grille: The grille attaches magnetically, allowing for a clean and elegant look when removed.

Connectivity

• Bi-Wiring / Bi-Amping Capability: Dual input terminals allow for bi-wiring to separate high and low-frequency current for a clearer midrange, or bi-amping for greater optimization.
• Dolby Atmos Passthrough: For easy integration of Dolby Atmos, there is a streamlined, hidden connection for adding a compatible upward-firing speaker, such as the Klipsch RP-500SA II.

Performance benefits

• High Efficiency: With a sensitivity of 98 dB, the speakers can produce powerful, dynamic sound with even a modest amplifier.
• Versatile Audio: The RP-8000F II is designed to deliver a dynamic and detailed experience for both two-channel music listening and immersive home theater setups.
• Low Distortion: The combination of the vented tweeter, Cerametallic woofers with aluminum shorting rings, and Tractrix ports works to keep distortion exceptionally low across the frequency range.

Product specifications (Klipsch RP8000F II)

Audio performance

• Frequency response: 35–25,000 Hz (±3 dB), delivering a full range of sound from deep bass to crisp highs.
• Sensitivity: 98 dB at 2.83V / 1m, making it highly efficient and capable of producing powerful sound even with modest amplifier power.
• Power handling: 150W (continuous) and 600W (peak), with a solid 150 watts at 8 ohms recommended for optimal performance.
• Nominal impedance: 8 Ohms compatible.
• Crossover frequency: 1,630 Hz.

Drivers

• High-frequency driver: A 1″ LTS (Linear Travel Suspension) titanium diaphragm tweeter with a second-generation, larger 90° x 90° silicone composite hybrid Tractrix horn. The vented housing further reduces unwanted harmonics.
• Low-frequency drivers: Dual 8″ Cerametallic cone woofers with larger voice coils and aluminum shorting rings for high efficiency and low distortion.
• Ports: Dual-chamber rear-firing Tractrix ports for fast, efficient airflow from the cabinet, which reduces port noise and creates clean bass.

Design and connectivity

• Cabinet: Internally braced MDF construction with additional bracing and a divided design to minimize resonance and vibration.
• Inputs: Dual aluminum binding posts for bi-wiring or bi-amping.
• Atmos passthrough: A refined connection for easily adding an optional Dolby Atmos-enabled speaker, like the Klipsch RP-500SA II.
• Finishes: Available in furniture-grade ebony and walnut vinyl with scratch-resistant satin-painted baffles.
• Feet: Cast aluminum stabilizer feet with rubber pads are pre-installed to minimize resonance with the floor.
• Grille: A strong, flexible, and removable magnetic grille is included.
