About the Klipsch Reference R-41SA

Take your Klipsch home theater to a higher level
Take your Klipsch home theater to a higher level
Maybe you've heard about Dolby Atmos. It's an expanded type of surround sound that enhances your movie soundtracks by accurately positioning sounds all around you — including above you. If you've got Reference tower speakers, the add-on R-41SA pair lets you add "height" sound effects to movie night.
How do they work?
Each R-14SA speaker has a 4" woofer and a horn-loaded tweeter on its top baffle. These drivers are angled to reflect sound off of your ceiling and back down to your listening position. These compact add-on modules sit right on top of your existing Reference speakers. Use a pair with your front speakers for a "5.1.2" system. With a compatible receiver, you can even add another pair to the rear surround speakers for an even more enveloping experience.
The R-41SA can also be wall-mounted for use as regular surround speakers.
Does your receiver have what it takes?
You'll need a home theater receiver with Dolby Atmos in order to get enhanced surround sound with these speakers.

There is a keyhole slot on the back, as well as four integrated rubber feet on the bottom of the speaker.
- Dolby Atmos "Topper" Dimensions: Keep in mind the R-41SA's dimensions when using it as a Dolby Atmos topper, as it must be able to rest on top of your floorstanding or bookshelf loudspeaker. It measures 5.75" (w) x 7.125" (h) x 12.75" (d). The rubber feet on the bottom of the speaker have a footprint that measures 4.5" (w) x 10.125" (d).

- 90°x90° Tractrix Horn: Klipsch exclusive 90º x 90º Tractrix horn technology ensures that the R-41SA high frequency energy is aimed at the ceiling and bounces down to the listener with laser precision - all while reducing artificial reverb or filtering.

- LTS (Linear Travel Suspension): Behind each horn lies a 1.0" tweeter with a linear travel suspension.

The speakers seem to preform quite well for the price. Nice clear sound and a great addition to our home theater system. We are running it as a 5.1.2 set-up and it sounds wonderful.
