RVX-42 (black)

RVX-42 LCR

Despite its slim appearance, the RVX-42 delivers an adrenaline rush of sound that's set to stun. In fact, it received a 2004 Distributed Audio Award from Electronic House Expo for being the best on-wall speaker for less than $1,000 per pair.

Detailed Description

With similar flatness and styling to popular plasma and LCD televisions, the Klipsch Reference Series RVX-42 is a high-performance audio solution that complements this growing consumer electronics segment.

This on-wall model has a single-piece aluminum extrusion enclosure. It employs dual 4-inch Cerametallic™ woofers and uses a 1-inch titanium-dome compression driver mated to a round Tractrix® Horn for maximum clarity and efficiency.

The RVX-42 goes well with 42-inch or larger plasma and LCD screens. It also features keyhole mounts (sized for a single-gang electrical box), two 3/8"-16 threaded inserts for optional wall mounts and a pedestal base. There are two insert locations on the RVX-42 where the pedestal can be positioned - one in the center and one on the bottom so the loudspeaker can either serve as a center channel or bookshelf. Another key feature is a bass compensation switch for the best possible sonic performance either on-wall or off-wall.

Available in the same black finish as the Klipsch Reference Satellites, the RVX-42, which is packaged and sold individually, can be combined with these compact speakers to create complete systems. For example, you can create a 5.1-channel surround sound system using three RVX-42s (two main channels and one center channel), a pair of Reference Satellite RSX-4s for surrounds and a Reference Series RW-10 subwoofer.
