The Klipsch Reference Premiere RP-500M II is a compact, high-performance bookshelf speaker engineered for audiophile-grade stereo listening and home theatre applications. Featuring Klipsch's signature Tractrix horn-loaded tweeter and a Cerametallic woofer, the RP-500M II delivers exceptional clarity, dynamics, and efficiency from a compact enclosure.
The 90°×90° Tractrix horn controls directivity and reduces room interaction, while the rear-firing Tractrix port minimises port noise for tighter, more accurate bass. Dual binding posts allow bi-wiring or bi-amplification for those seeking maximum system flexibility.

Caring for your Speakers and Amplifiers
To Keep your equipment safe these are some best practices to note. Please be advised that this is only to reduce the risk of misuse and is not an exhaustive list.
Speakers
- Speaker terminals are marked red and black, ensure your amplifier to the speakers are wired on the same colours
- Ensure no loose speaker wire from the red touches a loose wire from the black as this will lead to a short circuit and damage either the speaker, the amplifier or both.
- Not all speakers are designed to play at max volume, kindly consider the pairing of your amplifier and speakers
- Speaker cabinets cannot be replaced please handle with care.
AV & Stereo Amplifiers
- If your amplifier has HDMI ports, ensure all devices are off before plugging in the HDMI cable
- Turn off the amplifier before swoping out or adding speaker cable
- Amplifiers generate heat, place them in a well ventilated space. if possible avoid having anything on top of the unit.
- adding a surge protector can assist with power dips which are likely to damage your devices. Isotek and Furman are industry standard.
- Dusty environments can sometimes lead to accumulation of dust in the electronic components that might affect heat regulation
