This technology has been refined for the RF-63 to include an improved throat geometry for more genuine, lifelike sound.  Behind the horn is a professional-grade 1.25" titanium diaphragm compression driver to give precise and clear sound. Below the horn there are triple 6.5" Cerametallic woofers with inverted copper dust caps.  These woofers have a very high stiffness-to-mass ratio and feature superb damping.  The cabinet is designed with internal crossbracing to minimize unwanted vibrations and three rear-firing ports eliminate turbulant noise.  There is also incresed baffle ribbing around the horn mouth for improved acoustics and premium binding posts for superior connectivity.  The Klipsch RF-63 are sold by the pair and available in a cherry or black real wood veneer finish with magnetically attached speaker grills. The RF-63 is also sold as the L/R speakers in the Klipsch RF-63 home theater system.
