SKU CH-Y974-JSYXP

  • TypeSurround/Rear Channel Speakers
  • ColorBlack
  • Wide-dispersion horn spreads sound across 90° for immersive surround
  • Vented tweeter housing cuts standing waves for cleaner highs
  • Cerametallic 5.25 woofers deliver low-distortion bass impact
  • Two-way design separates frequencies for precise detail
  • On-wall mounting flexibility suits elevation or rear channels

Ideal for surround and elevation channels

The Klipsch RP-502SBII functions as a dedicated surround or rear-channel speaker and can also serve as an on-wall elevation module. Its wide dispersion design spreads sound across a broad listening area for immersive home-theatre effects.

Upgrade from basic bookshelf surrounds

Replacing standard direct-radiating bookshelf speakers with this wide-dispersion model adds a larger, more enveloping soundstage. The jump is worth it when your room layout demands wider coverage or when elevation channels are needed for object-based audio formats.

Handles mid-to-large rooms with 5.25-inch drivers

Dual 5.25-inch Cerametallic woofers and the 90° x 90° Tractrix horn deliver ample output for typical surround duties in medium and large spaces. In very large rooms or at reference-level volumes, a single pair may reach its headroom limits for the lowest surround effects.

Questions about this item

What mounting options does the RP-502SBII support for on-wall placement?

The speaker is designed for on-wall use as an elevation or surround channel, with a 90° x 90° Tractrix horn that maintains wide dispersion when mounted at ear height or above.

Which wiring terminals are used during installation, and what common mistake should be avoided?

Connect the speaker-level inputs on the rear panel, ensuring positive and negative leads match the amplifier; reversing polarity is the frequent error that collapses the soundstage.

How often should the 5.25 Cerametallic woofers and LTS titanium tweeter be inspected or replaced?

Under normal home-theatre use the drivers require no scheduled replacement; simply dust the horn and vented tweeter housing occasionally to keep airflow clear.
