Creating a new benchmark in architectural audio excellence, the installer-friendly Klipsch R-5800-W in-wall loudspeaker delivers a level of realism and subtlety that surpasses and even intimidates competing designs. In fact, it snared a CES Innovations Award for being one of the best designed and engineered audio products for 2005.

• Very high sensitivity and power handling
• Pivoting Tractrix Horn compression driver tweeter for clear sound in
• any location
• Treble and midbass attenuation switches and IR receiver knock out
• Single piece grille frame and rustproof aluminum grille

By featuring an 8-inch Cerametallic™ woofer cone, a 1-inch titanium tweeter mated to a square 90-degree by 60-degree pivoting Tractrix® Horn, as well as treble and bass contour switches, there's no denying this speaker's natural precision, clarity and efficiency. Not to mention, because the pivoting horn allows listeners to point the sound where they want it to go, the direct to reflected energy ratio is high in the listening area creating a large soundstage with well-defined imaging.

Available in a white finish, the R-5800-W can be paired with the Klipsch IK-800-W installation kit (sold separately). This revolutionary kit design incorporates a mud ring, breakaway wire tie and color-coded brackets for easy speaker size identification. It also includes perforated metal wings that easily fasten to the studs via screws, staples or nails. Painted white for easy marking and placement, these metal wings can be folded around the edge of the studs if necessary.
