RP-500SA II
If depth of sound-field is what you're craving then the RP-500SA II is a must. Sit this Atmos 'topper' on top of your front speakers, or wall-mount them to the side to enhance your music and movies with Atmos channel reproduction.

The Next Generation of our iconic Reference Premiere series, the RP-500SA II Atmos Speaker has been fashioned with our innovations in the field at the heart of its design, making a versatile speaker with boundless placement options. Maintaining the Silicone Tractrix Horn feature that the range is known for, along with the newly advanced Cerametallic Woofers, this Dolby Atmos speaker can be added to any monitor or floortstander speaker, or to be used as surround speakers for a hemisphere of rich, detailed sound.

THE MOST VERSATILE SURROUND SPEAKER AVAILABLE

The RP-500SA II can be used as an up-firing immersive speaker for Dolby Atmos Technology, a height speaker or a rear surround model all with the flip of a switch. Immersive sound comes alive from all directions, including overhead, with these Dolby Atmos® enabled speakers. Add to any monitor or tower speaker or use as surround speakers for a hemisphere of rich, detailed sound.

90° X 90° SILICON COMPOSITE HYBRID TRACTRIX HORN

Horn loading maximises efficiency and increases detail while focusing high frequencies towards the listening area. Proprietary Tractrix® geometry provides the most efficient transfer of high frequency waves into the listening area. The phase plug and compressed moulded silicon face ensure smooth frequency response. When combined, the cleanest, most natural sound possible is created. The second generation increases horn size for a larger soundstage and enhanced directivity.

LINEAR TRAVEL SUSPENSION (LTS) TITANIUM DIAPHRAGM TWEETER

The exclusive Linear Travel Suspension minimises distortion for enhanced, detailed performance. LTS tweeters are a hallmark of previous Reference lines, making it a core component of some of the best speakers in the world.

VENTED TWEETER DESIGN

The vented tweeter housing reduces standing waves that create unwanted harmonics, resulting in enhanced detail and clarity in high frequency reproduction.

CERAMETALLIC WOOFERS – ALL NEW DESIGN

A signature feature on the Reference Premiere series, Cerametallic™ woofers are exceptionally rigid and lightweight for minimal distortion and maximum efficiency. New voice coils are 70% larger in diameter resulting in improved power handling and greater cone control for greater linearity and flawless reproduction. New aluminium shorting rings reduce distortion as well as increased power handling and the new motor structure improve transit response with more control with greater speed and accuracy.

NEW AND IMPROVED INPUT PANEL

Featuring audiophile-grade wire and easily accessible aluminium binding posts for any connection type.

FURNITURE GRADE MATERIALS AND FINISHES

Finishes include ebony vinyl and walnut vinyl that boast satin painted baffles with a scratch-resistant finish.

The attractive grille attaches magnetically for an elegant transition from powerful showstopper to discrete performance piece and the runner bumpers of the previous generation have been replaced with Cork pads, for increased security on a stand or table.

Reference Premiere speakers take the already sensational performance of the Reference Range and incorporate higher-end componentry and technologies to create something pretty mind-blowing. As the go-to standard for our demo room at Henley HQ, the Reference Premiere line are played on a daily basis - pair them with an Onkyo AV receiver and you have a recipe for a memorable movie night.
