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.

How far away from a wall should Klipsch RP-5000F speakers be placed?

Approximately two to three feet. The closer you are to the wall, the more it will affect the bass response. When the speaker is put too close to a wall, the frequency response is erratic and the bass is boomy. The sound can only be adjusted by a few inches at a time.

How much electricity do the Klipsch RP-5000F speakers require?

These speakers should be powered at a maximum of 150W per channel into an 8 ohm load. You’ll need at least 120W per channel into an 8-ohm load to operate them safely.

Can the Klipsch RP-5000F speakers reproduce music faithfully?

Klipsch has been a pioneer in the high-end speaker market for more than 50 years, and its products are famous for their superior sound, high quality, and dependability. If you want to modernise your audio system, Klipsch is a fantastic choice.

Does the Klipsch RP-5000F speaker system cover the entire spectrum?

Klipsch floorstanding speakers provide elegance to your house while offering soaring highs and booming lows. They provide a strong audio experience in a fashionable package. True audiophiles will love the power and sound integrity that our premium full-range speakers provide.

How can I get the most out of my Klipsch RP-5000F speakers?

The left and right speakers must be positioned symmetrically to one another in order to maximise the soundstage and create the most dimensional sound. Each speaker and the audience should have at least that much room—often six feet or more.

Will the Klipsch RP-5000F speakers be my first choice?

The primary viewing/listening position should be in an equilateral triangle, with the left and right front speakers placed with the same distance from the screen and at least six feet apart. To intensify the experience, toeing in may be chosen.

Do I need an amplifier for my Klipsch RP-5000F?

All speakers must be powered, but the appropriate amp is still required. Regardless of the speakers you need to power, Klipsch makes the best amplifier for the job.

How can I connect my TV to my Klipsch RP-5000F speakers?

Connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI input on the sound bar. The HDMI-ARC connection on the TV should be linked to the opposite end of the cable. HDMI cables are necessary for the TV’s HDMI input.

What purpose do the floorstanding Klipsch RP-5000F speakers serve?

Floorstanding speakers generate a room-filling sound that is especially beneficial in large, open areas. You can use them when viewing TV, movies, or music videos because they are the perfect fit for you.

Are the floorstanding Klipsch RP-5000F speakers superior?

When speakers are placed on shelves, audio is more realistic. Due to their stronger bass response, floorstanders typically provide a more complete audio experience for music, making them ideal for use as the front channels in home theatre systems. A broader soundstage is often offered by floorstanders.

Does using an amplifier with the floor-standing Klipsch RP-5000F speakers require it?

Floorstanding speakers need amplifiers to power them. Due to the enormous volumes they create, they can be rather demanding in terms of amplifier power consumption. The good news is that it’s not hard to find an amplifier that can supply adequate power to a speaker.

Can floor speakers used as rears, such as the Klipsch RP-5000F, be used?

Floor-standing speakers are normally utilised in the front, though they can also be used for surround in the back. Tower speakers, also referred to as floor standing speakers, have several advantages.

To get the finest sound, where should I place my Klipsch RP-5000F floorstanding speakers?

Your speakers should be at least two to three feet away from the nearest wall. As a result, there will be fewer sound reflections, which will enhance playback quality. The speaker is in a straight line (toe-in). Focus your speakers especially on the area behind the listener’s head. Angle your speakers inward to accomplish this.
