Klipsch RP-504C Center Channel Speaker (Walnut)

Got this SOLELY because Klipsch decided to discontinue the Piano Black finish in their new speakers. I also got the matching front tower speakers. It looks gorgeous and totally changes the look of an entire room when it has the speaker grill off. Make sure you supply enough power to the speaker to get the full performance. The number one reason speakers dont sound as good as they possibly can is because folks under power their speakers. If you purchase this speaker, make sure to get a dedicated AMP to drive this speaker. This speaker is definitely NOT for the home theater in a box crowd.

This center is exactly what my setup needed after upgrading my towers to the R820fs. I originally bought the R-34-C that Klipsh recommends but ended up returning it because it was extremely underwhelming for the $399 price tag. I had been was back in fourth between the too but I just didnt want to spend $750 on the 504c but luckily for me it went on sale for Klipsh Christmas in July sale $450 altering using it I would have been happy to pay the $750

Had Definitive Technology CS9040 I was never happy with. Bought this and couldnt be happier.

This is the best center speaker I ever owned. I had an Infinity center speaker before. I had a Bose little cube speaker before. But this one is the ultimate!

Sound qualities top notch but I didnt like about it is was not cheap but you got to pay for quality sometimes

Much larger than the R-52C its replacing. It definitely sounds more crisp. The style is different between the reference and reference premiere. I kinda like the gold screws look on the reference but the wood finish is much nicer on the premiere. Its much heavier, probably close to 50lbs. Great for movies. You need a good center for home theaters. *Note klipsch speakers do accept bannana connectors. You have to pop off the cap, see picture. Ive seen a couple reviews on other speakers complaining it does not. It would be nice if they would show that in the instructions.

Upgraded my Klipsch KV-3 (well outdated but still good) center channel speaker with this RP-504C bad boy. When I first purchased the KV3 speaker center channels were more of an after thought than taking main stage like todays center channels. The KV3 is very well built and serves it purpose but when you compare it to the 504C there is no comparison at all. TBH from the start the KV3 was pretty muddy and not very clear as center channel but I wrote this off as that what a CC was supposed to sound like. Well 2 decades later I added the 504 and put the KV3 on the obsolete shelf. I am so, so, so IMPRESSED with the clarity and voice richness of the 504c am I beside my self. The rich ported bass is also very clean and does not get in the way of your main speakers, but rather supports them. I use Speakerlab S30s as my mains. Not sure if the added price of the newest Klipsch CC is worth the cost increase but you will not be disappointed with this CC 504C speaker. Best regards, Johnboy

This center channel speaker has made a world of a difference for my setup. Sound is fuller and clearer. Movies just got 10x more engaging because it picks up every detail in sound.

This speaker does what it advertises, great sound and performance.

I really enjoy listening to music on this speaker. I have it paired with some RP-502Ss and the RP-8000Fs. Everything comes alive when listening on these speakers. Wish the materials were a bit nicer and the price was lower but overall cant complain.
