The RP-404C II is Klipsch's second-generation Reference Premiere center channel, built around a 1-inch titanium LTS tweeter in a 90° x 90° silicon composite hybrid Tractrix horn, flanked by four 4-inch spun-copper Cerametallic woofers. The larger horn versus the first generation widens the soundstage and sharpens dialogue directivity, which is what a center channel is for. It is a big, heavy cabinet, so it wants a wide shelf or a stand under the TV rather than a cramped media unit. Against slim soundbars and small centers it trades footprint for dynamics and output; against pricier three-way centers it gives up some midrange separation. Owners rate it highly, and the walnut finish matches the rest of the Reference Premiere II line.

Owners rate it very highly, praising dialogue clarity and the seamless match with other Reference Premiere II speakers. The main reservations are its size and the forward horn treble.
The Klipsch RP-404C II is a center channel speaker from the Reference Premiere line. It has a 90° x 90° Hybrid Tractrix horn made from a silicon composite. Horn loading focuses high frequencies on the listening area and increases efficiency and detail.
The Tractrix horn geometry transfers high-frequency waves into the listening area efficiently. A phase plug and a compressed molded silicon face help keep the frequency response smooth. In this second generation, the horn is larger, which gives a larger soundstage and better directivity.
The tweeter is a titanium diaphragm unit with Linear Travel Suspension (LTS), which minimizes distortion. The tweeter housing is vented to reduce standing waves that create unwanted harmonics.
