The RW-5101-C proves that domestic
harmony and powerful home theater
performance can co-exist. In other words,
just because you can’t see this in-ceiling
subwoofer, doesn’t mean you won’t feel it.
This hard-hitter generates clean, potent bass
that’ll lift you out of your seat. It also contin-
ues the Klipsch tradition of high output with
low distortion and effortless dynamic range.
The RW-5101-C utilizes a 10-inch long-
throw woofer for unbeatable music and
movie playback and high power handling
(250 watts). The driver features a stiff,
well-damped Cerametallic cone, a specially
treated aluminum that has been electro-
chemically transformed into ceramic on
both outer surfaces. This ceramic com-
pound allows the woofer to move at high
speeds without blurring the sound. Further-
more, the subwoofer features an MDF baffle
and sealed back enclosure, allowing it to
deliver consistent low-frequency response
regardless of the ceiling space.
Easy-to-install, the RW-5101-C can accom-
modate new or existing ceiling structures,
as the enclosure is designed to fit standard
ceiling joists. It employs all-new sure-grip
mounting dogs for even pressure against the
drywall. These robust dogs pull tight, leaving
no gaps in sight and providing long-term
installation reliability.
Timbre and style matched to all of our
other premium in-ceiling products, the
RW-5101-C brings a great bottom-end to
a wide variety of discreet stereo or home
theater systems. In fact, we’ve got premium
architectural solutions in all shapes, sizes and
prices, so take your pick!
*The RW-5101-C must be used in conjunction with the com-
pany’s RSA-500 subwoofer amplifier, sold separately. Two of these
subwoofers can be connected to a single amplifier.
