Klipsch Reference 25 System Manual
The RC-25 centre speaker features nearly identical woofers (just slightly smaller) and tweeter unit as the floorstanders. It also exhibits the same almost radioactive glow when watching movies. Not surprisingly the RC-25 performs in the same outstanding way as its floor standing brothers. The matching RS-25 surrounds were not available to test so I got the next model up: the RS-35. The surrounds are trapezium in shape, with each of the angled panes having a horn tweeter and the shorter of the two parallel sides has a Cerametallic driver.
Using the excellent automated set-up from the Yamaha RX-V2500, the surrounds matched the treble noise of the front speakers identically. Strafing bullets from Saving Private Ryan and fizzing arrows in LOTR - The Two Towers highlighted the real benefits in having a complete set of speakers that all use the same components as front to back or vice versa effects were almost seamless.
The biggest surprise and the speaker I liked best was the RW-12 subwoofer. While initially I didn’t think it was all that great, over the past three weeks it has proved to be a real animal. Resident Evil has a LFE sound track like none I’ve come across before. The sub hammers away for 90 of its 97 minute length. The sub itself is a 300mm front firing Cerametallic cone and is controlled by a 300w RMS amplifier. It has all the usual features such as 180° phase control and auto/standby mode. One great aspect of this sub is the volume control. An easy to adjust knob is countersunk high into the right side, near the front panel. Though, the best bit about this sub is its performance. I have a B&W ASW 650 - a half- decent subwoofer - but I’d swap it for this one in a heartbeat. It sounds better and punches faster and harder.
