Klipsch RP-600M II - Ebony Bookshelf Speakers — Horn-Loaded Hi-Fi With Real Theater Dynamics

The Klipsch RP-600M II - Ebony stands out as a high-sensitivity, horn-loaded bookshelf speaker for those seeking dynamic and detailed sound from a compact enclosure. Sharing its core acoustic design with the Reference Premiere II floorstanders, it brings the brand’s vivid and energetic sound to living rooms, small offices, and media spaces. For anyone seeking horn-loaded energy in a versatile, stand-mount format, the RP-600M II is an excellent option.

Unique Features in the Reference Premiere II Series

This generation introduces a much larger 90° x 90° silicone composite Tractrix horn extending nearly edge-to-edge for improved high-frequency clarity. The vented tweeter enclosure reduces unwanted resonances, while a new Cerametallic woofer and rear Tractrix port deliver cleaner, deeper bass. Rear dual input terminals enable bi-wiring or bi-amping, splitting high and low frequencies to minimize midrange distortion.

Drivers and Power Handling

Horn-loaded architecture is the core of this model’s performance: a 1" LTS titanium-diaphragm tweeter in the expansive Tractrix horn works with a 6.5" Cerametallic woofer to achieve both high efficiency and substantial dynamic range. This means strong output from modest amplifier power, matching well with both tube and solid-state amps.

• Maximum Power: 400 W — ample headroom for movie peaks and live music in medium rooms.
• Frequency Range: 44 Hz – 25 kHz — handles deep bass and airy highs without requiring a subwoofer for most uses.
• The new Cerametallic woofer design keeps bass lines precise and distortion-free, even at higher volumes.

Sensitivity, Impedance, and Amplifier Compatibility

High sensitivity means the RP-600M II can produce engaging volume from low-powered amps, including vintage tube models, and scales up gracefully with modern receivers. Its 8-ohm impedance ensures wide compatibility with home audio systems.

• Sensitivity: 94 dB — efficient enough for low-watt tube amps and energy-conscious listening.
• Nominal Impedance: 8 ohms — easy to drive with most amplifiers or AV receivers.
• Inputs: Banana socket / Speaker In binding posts — supports bare wire, banana plugs, or spade connectors, with separate terminals for bi-wiring/bi-amping.

Cabinet Engineering and Finish

The robust cabinet minimizes resonance with extra internal bracing. The rear-firing Tractrix port is tuned for rapid, efficient airflow and low port noise. Finished in Ebony vinyl with a satin baffle and scratch-resistant surface, the speaker looks at home on any stand or shelf. Magnetic grille and cork pads provide clean looks and stability.

• Enclosure: MDF cabinet with Ebony vinyl wrap and satin-painted baffle — designed for a sophisticated, furniture-grade appearance.
• Port: Rear-firing Tractrix geometry — engineered for clean low frequencies and reduced turbulence.
• For a seamless front baffle, the magnetic grille attaches without visible hardware and removes easily when you want a more striking look.

Who Should Choose the RP-600M II

Hi-fi enthusiasts and home theater fans will appreciate this speaker’s ability to deliver realistic dynamics and detail. It’s a strong fit for rooms between 15–35 m², whether placed on stands, shelves, or credenzas, and works as both a stereo pair for music or front L/R in a Reference Premiere II surround setup. Owners of low-watt tube amps benefit from its sensitivity, while AV receiver users enjoy its dynamic potential.

Reference Premiere II Heritage

The Reference Premiere II family updates Klipsch’s acclaimed line with a bigger horn, a re-engineered woofer, and improved tweeter venting. The RP-600M II occupies the middle of the bookshelf range—above the RP-500M II, below the floorstanders—and shares technology across the lineup, allowing you to expand your home theater system with matching components.
