Designed to the same standards as our flagship RF-7, the RF-5’s sonic clarity and impact, from top to bottom, place it in the very top echelon of high-performance loudspeakers. And it is so amazingly efficient that it demands only about one-eighth the amplifier power of conventional speakers. Whether standing alone in a high-end stereo music system or anchoring a powerhouse home theater, the RF-5 brings the experience home with maximum intensity. The RF-5’s tweeter is a 1-inch titanium dome compression driver with an uncommonly large 9.6-ounce magnet. It is loaded by an 8-inch square 90° x 60° Tractrix® Horn, which raises the driver’s efficiency and controls its radiation pattern to minimize detail-blurring reflections from walls, floor, and ceiling. The dual 8-inch woofers have stiff, lightweight Cerametallic™ cones, rigid, low-resonance cast-polymer frames, and massive 28-ounce magnets, enabling them to generate staggering levels of bass without strain or distortion. All drivers are magnetically shielded to prevent interference with direct-view television sets. Amplifier connections are via two pairs of binding posts, which are linked with jumpers for normal wiring. Removing the jumpers allows the speaker to be bi-wired. The speaker’s “floating” grille minimizes diffraction, and its feet can be fitted with rubber pads or spikes. The rear-ported cabinet is available finished in Medium Cherry, Blonde Maple, or Black Ash wood veneer. n Extremely high sensitivity, power handling, and output capability n Tractrix Horn titanium dome compression driver tweeter for clean, detailed highs n Cerametallic cone woofers with cast-polymer frames n Bi-wire compatible inputs n Magnetically shielded to prevent video interference n Real wood veneer finishes SPECIFICATIONS BANDWIDTH 34Hz-20kHz ± 3dB SENSITIVITY 99dB @ 2.83 volts/1 meter NOMINAL IMPEDANCE 8 ohms compatible CROSSOVER FREQUENCY 2500Hz POWER HANDLING 150 watts (600 watts peak) ENCLOSURE TYPE Bass-reflex via rear-firing port DRIVE COMPONENTS Two way system using one 1'' (2.5cm) magnetically shielded, titanium diaphragm compression driver with an 8'' (20.3cm) square 90˚x 60˚ Tractrix horn and two 8'' (20.3cm) magnetically shielded, Cerametallic cone woofers WEIGHT 62 lbs.
