Overview

Klipsch RC-64 III Center Channel Speaker

Premium 2.5-way center channel loudspeaker featuring four 6.5-inch Cerametallic woofers, a 1.75-inch titanium compression driver, and a 90° × 90° Tractrix horn.

The Klipsch RC-64 III Center Channel Speaker delivers exceptional dialogue clarity, powerful dynamics, and precise vocal reproduction for high-performance home theater systems. Designed and assembled in Hope, Arkansas, it combines four 6.5-inch spun-copper Cerametallic woofers with a horn-loaded titanium compression driver in a substantial sealed enclosure.

With 99dB sensitivity, 200-watt continuous power handling, and 800-watt peak capability, the RC-64 III reproduces dialogue and demanding cinematic soundtracks with impressive authority. Its sophisticated 2.5-way crossover is engineered to maintain consistent sound across multiple seating positions.

1.75-Inch Titanium Compression Driver

The RC-64 III features a 1.75-inch titanium diaphragm compression driver with a redesigned phase plug.

This high-performance driver improves phase coherence and high-frequency linearity, helping reproduce dialogue, vocals, and soundtrack details with clarity and precision.

Its horn-loaded architecture delivers high acoustic efficiency while maintaining controlled dispersion.

90° × 90° Tractrix Horn

Klipsch's proprietary Tractrix horn uses a circular throat transitioning into a square mouth to improve high-frequency dispersion and acoustic performance.

The compressed molded-rubber construction provides additional damping to reduce unwanted resonance and high-frequency harshness.

The horn's 90° horizontal and vertical coverage supports consistent dialogue intelligibility throughout the listening area.

Four 6.5-Inch Cerametallic Woofers

The RC-64 III incorporates four 6.5-inch spun-copper Cerametallic woofers.

These lightweight, rigid diaphragms are designed to minimize cone breakup and distortion while delivering dynamic midbass reproduction.

Each woofer features a heavy-duty cast-aluminum basket that provides structural stability and helps control unwanted resonance.

The four-driver configuration delivers substantial output capability for demanding cinematic passages.

Advanced 2.5-Way Crossover

The RC-64 III uses a sophisticated 2.5-way crossover network with crossover points at 1,000Hz and 1,400Hz.

The network progressively attenuates the outer woofers at higher frequencies to reduce horizontal interference between drivers.

This design helps preserve consistent tonal balance and dialogue clarity for listeners seated away from the center of the room.

Sealed Cabinet Construction

Unlike ported center channel designs, the RC-64 III uses a sealed acoustic enclosure.

This construction provides controlled driver loading and allows greater placement flexibility within appropriately sized home theater furniture or beneath a projection screen.

The substantial cabinet measures 35.8 inches wide and weighs 55 pounds, reflecting its robust construction and extensive driver array.

Premium Wood Veneer Finishes

The RC-64 III features furniture-grade real wood veneers and is available in:

  • Black Ash

  • Walnut

  • Cherry, subject to availability

Its refined finish options complement premium Klipsch floorstanding speakers and dedicated theater installations.

Dual Binding Posts for Bi-Wiring or Bi-Amping

Two sets of binding posts allow conventional single-wire connection or compatible bi-wire and bi-amp configurations.

This flexibility supports integration with premium AV receivers and separate multichannel power amplifiers.
