BEFORE YOU START
Some Klipsch® speakers have feet and other accessories that may need to be installed prior to use. Please refer to Diagrams 1, 2, 3 and 4 for installation.
ROOM PLACEMENT
- Left and Right Main Channel Speakers — For optimum performance, Klipsch Group, Inc. (KGI) suggests placing your speakers 6 to 15 feet (1.8 to 4.6m) apart. They may also be toed-in slightly for better stereo imaging. The listening position should be about 1 to 1.5 times the distance separating the speakers. Refer to Figures 1 and 3 for connection and placement.
- Center Channel Speakers — Center channel speakers are designed to place dialogue and primary sounds so that they appear to come from the video screen. The speakers should therefore be placed as close to the screen as possible, preferably directly on top of or below the screen. Refer to Figures 1, 2 and 3 for connection and placement.
- Rear Surround Channel Speakers — Klipsch WDST surround speakers should be placed approximately 2 feet above the listening position. Typically this will be about 5-7 feet above the floor. The surrounds should be placed on the walls directly adjacent to the listening position. Another option would be on the wall behind the listening position. The final surround speaker placement depends on your room’s characteristics. They are designed to recreate the sense of space and ambience that many of today’s surround sound technologies provide. Refer to Figures 1, 3 and 4 for connection and placement.
CONNECTION
-
Conventional Connection — Using 16-12 gauge speaker wire, connect the RED “positive” (+) terminal of the LEFT speaker to the RED “positive” (+) terminal of your amplifier’s LEFT channel. Connect the BLACK “negative” (–) terminal of the LEFT speaker to the BLACK “negative” (–) terminal of your amplifier’s LEFT channel. Repeat this procedure for connecting all remaining speakers to the appropriate amplifier channels. Refer to Figure 3. Make sure that no bare wires from any of the connections touch any other terminals as this could cause a short and damage your equipment.
Reference Premiere are equipped with dual binding posts. If single wire connection is used, the terminal connecting bar should remain in place. If Bi- wire or Bi-amp connection is used, the terminal connecting bar must be removed. Please see your receiver’s manual for further instructions. -
Amplifier Requirements — Klipsch speakers are highly efficient and will operate easily on a wide variety of amplifiers. All Klipsch speakers are 8-ohm compatible and can be driven to very high levels with low distortion. Due to the high output levels Klipsch speakers are capable of reproducing, exercise caution with the volume control. Excessive volume over long periods can permanently damage your hearing. Overdriving your amplifier could also damage your speakers. Check with your dealer or amplifier manual to make sure your particular amplifier is best suited to your application. We want you listening for a lifetime.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far should Klipsch RP-6000F speakers be placed from a wall?****
Between two and three feet. The bass response will be more impacted by your proximity to the wall. The frequency response is inconsistent and the bass is boomy when the speaker is placed too close to a wall. Only a few inches can be moved at a time until the sound is perfect.
The Klipsch RP-6000F speakers need how much power?****
The ideal power output for these speakers is 150W per channel into an 8 ohm load. To operate them safely, you’ll need at least 120W per channel into an 8-ohm load.
Can the Klipsch RP-6000F speakers accurately reproduce music?****
For more than 50 years, Klipsch has been a leader in the high-end speaker industry, and its products are renowned for their excellent sound, high quality, and dependability. Klipsch is a great option if you want to update your audio system.
Does the Klipsch RP-6000F speaker system cover the entire spectrum?****
Klipsch floorstanding speakers provide soaring highs and thunderous lows while enhancing the elegance of your home. They offer a powerful audio experience in a stylish package. Our premium full-range speakers offer power and sound integrity that true audiophiles will value.
How should I use my Klipsch RP-6000F speakers to their full potential?****
To maximise the soundstage and produce the most dimensional sound, the left and right speakers must be placed symmetrically to one another. There should be at least that much space—often six feet or more—between each speaker and the audience.
Will I choose the Klipsch RP-6000F speakers first?****
The left and right front speakers should be situated with the same distance from the screen and at least six feet apart, and the primary viewing/listening position should be in an equilateral triangle. Toeing in can be preferred to make the sensation more stronger.
Is an amplifier necessary for my Klipsch RP-6000F?****
The right amp is still necessary, but all speakers must be powered. The greatest amplifier for the task is made by Klipsch, regardless of the speakers you need to power.
How can I connect my Klipsch RP-6000F speakers to my TV?****
Connect an HDMI cable to the sound bar’s HDMI input. The other end of the cable should be connected to the HDMI-ARC connector on the TV. The HDMI input on the TV requires HDMI cables.
What function do the Klipsch RP-6000F floorstanding speakers have?****
Large, open spaces benefit greatly from the room-filling sound produced by floorstanding speakers. Because they are the ideal fit for you, you can use them when watching television, movies, or music videos.
Are the Klipsch RP-6000F floorstanding speakers better?****
Audio is more vivid when speakers are set on shelves. Floorstanders usually offer a more full audio experience for music due to their greater bass response, making them perfect for use as the front channels in home theatre systems. Floorstanders typically provide a larger soundstage.
Does an amplifier need to be used with the floor-standing Klipsch RP- 6000F speakers?****
In order to power them, floorstanding speakers require amplifiers. They can be quite demanding in terms of amplifier power consumption due to the huge volumes they produce. The good news is that finding an amplifier that can give a speaker enough power is not difficult.
Can floor speakers like the Klipsch RP-6000F be utilised as rears?****
Although they can also be used for surround in the back, floor-standing speakers are typically employed in the front. Tower speakers, sometimes known as floor standing speakers, provide a number of benefits.
Where should I place my Klipsch RP-6000F floor standing speakers to get the best sound?****
The distance between your speakers and the closest wall should be at least two to three feet. As a result, sound reflections will be reduced, improving playback quality. The speaker is standing straight (toe-in). Particularly concentrate your speakers on the space behind the listener’s head. To do this, angulate your speakers inward.
