Klipsch RCC-122-LCR Behind the Screen Speaker for 122" Screens (Each) at Vinyl Sound Toronto Canada

The RCC-122-LCR is a professional-grade behind-the-screen cinema speaker from Klipsch (Hope, Arkansas, USA), available at Vinyl Sound in Toronto, Canada. Part of the Real Custom Cinema (RCC) Series, this individual LCR module is designed for acoustically transparent screen installations with screen widths of 122 inches and above, including 16:9 formats from 140" diagonal and 2.35:1 formats from 132" diagonal. Each speaker handles 800W continuous and 3,200W peak power and delivers a system sensitivity of 108 dB at 2.83V at 1 metre, utilizing the same K-691 titanium diaphragm compression drivers, K-510-M 90° x 60° Tractrix horns, and K-45-ST polyfiber woofer cones that Klipsch installs in commercial cinemas worldwide. Each unit is designed, engineered, and handcrafted in Hope, Arkansas, with printed specifications, a certificate of authenticity, and the signature of the craftsperson who built it.

Professional Cinema Components in a Home Theater Module

The RCC-122-LCR draws directly from Klipsch's decades of professional cinema loudspeaker manufacturing, deploying the same acoustic and network components found in commercial screen channels around the world. The K-691 3" titanium diaphragm compression driver with a 4" voice coil and the K-510-M 90° x 60° Tractrix horn deliver controlled horizontal dispersion of 90° and vertical coverage of 60°, with consistent directivity maintained from 1.1kHz to 20kHz. This ensures that every seat in a large dedicated home theater receives the same precisely focused, high-definition dialogue and effects imaging that a commercial cinema provides. The K-45-ST 15" polyfiber woofer cone with a 4" voice coil handles mid-bass and lower-frequency content with the headroom demanded by full-scale cinematic soundtracks.

Modular False Wall Design with No Light Creep

The RCC-122-LCR is engineered as a modular building block in the full RCC-122-BTS behind-the-screen system, which combines three LCR modules and two RCC-122-SUB 18" subwoofer modules into a single false wall structure. The modular cabinet system is designed to completely seal against light creep behind the acoustically transparent screen, maintaining the visual integrity of the display alongside the acoustic performance of the speaker system. At just 20.25" deep, the system fits within a standard false wall construction. Installation follows a straightforward process: determine screen position, cut the wall opening or construct the false wall, place the individual modules, connect amplifier wiring, and hang the screen. Each RCC-122-LCR unit is available in mono-amp configuration with an internal crossover, or bi-amp configuration with an external crossover for separating low and high-frequency amplifier channels independently.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Klipsch RCC-122-LCR?

The Klipsch RCC-122-LCR is a professional-grade behind-the-screen cinema speaker module from the Real Custom Cinema series, designed for dedicated home theater installations with acoustically transparent screens of 122 inches width or greater. Each unit is a single LCR (left, center, or right) speaker housing a 3" titanium compression driver, a 90° x 60° Tractrix horn, and a 15" polyfiber woofer, rated for 800W continuous power handling with a sensitivity of 108 dB.

How does the Klipsch RCC-122-LCR compare to the RCC-112-LCR or RCC-102-LCR?

The three Real Custom Cinema LCR models are differentiated by screen size compatibility and component specifications. The RCC-122-LCR is the flagship tier, deploying the K-691 3" titanium compression driver with a 4" voice coil and the K-45-ST 15" woofer with a 4" voice coil, rated at 800W continuous and 108 dB sensitivity, for screens 122 inches and wider. The RCC-112-LCR uses the same 3" compression driver but steps down to 3" voice coils and is rated at 400W continuous at 107 dB sensitivity, for screens between 112 and 121 inches. The RCC-102-LCR uses a smaller 1.75" compression driver and 3" voice coil woofer for screens between 102 and 111 inches. For the largest and most demanding home cinema installations, the RCC-122-LCR provides the highest output ceiling and the greatest dynamic headroom.

Can the RCC-122-LCR be used with a single amplifier channel?

Yes, the RCC-122-LCR is available in a mono-amp configuration that uses an internal passive crossover, allowing a single amplifier channel to drive the full speaker from one connection point. It is also available in a bi-amp configuration with an external active or passive crossover, enabling separate amplifier channels to drive the HF compression driver and the LF woofer independently for greater control and dynamic efficiency. The minimum recommended amplifier power is 250W RMS per LCR channel.

What is the Tractrix horn technology in the RCC-122-LCR?

The K-510-M Tractrix horn is Klipsch's cinema-grade waveguide for high-frequency dispersion control. The 90° x 60° coverage pattern ensures that horizontal sound coverage spans 90 degrees across the screen plane while vertical dispersion is tightly controlled at 60 degrees, directing sound toward the audience and minimizing reflections off ceiling and floor surfaces. This controlled directivity is maintained consistently from 1.1kHz to 20kHz, which is essential in large rooms where off-axis reflections can compromise dialogue intelligibility and imaging precision.

Where can I buy the Klipsch RCC-122-LCR in Toronto or Canada?

The Klipsch RCC-122-LCR is available at Vinyl Sound, an authorized Klipsch dealer in Toronto, Canada. Vinyl Sound supports complete Real Custom Cinema system planning, including ProSystem Design Support consultation, component selection across the LCR and subwoofer modules, and guidance on pairing with Klipsch Professional cinema surround or THX Cinema Series speakers to complete the surround sound environment.

How many RCC-122-LCR units are needed for a complete front stage?

A complete RCC-122-BTS behind-the-screen front stage requires three RCC-122-LCR units: one for the left channel, one for the center channel, and one for the right channel. These three LCR modules are installed side by side within the false wall structure. Two RCC-122-SUB 18" subwoofer modules are added to complete the full RCC-122-BTS system, providing the low-frequency foundation for the front stage. Surround and overhead channels are handled separately by Klipsch Professional cinema surround speakers or THX Cinema Series speakers, available at Vinyl Sound.

What screen types are compatible with the RCC-122-LCR installation?

The RCC-122-LCR requires an acoustically transparent projection screen that allows sound to pass through the screen material without significant frequency absorption or coloration. It is compatible with 16:9 aspect ratio screens of 140" diagonal or larger, and with 2.35:1 cinemascope screens of 132" diagonal or larger. The modular false wall system is designed for both purpose-built false wall constructions and cut-through installations, providing full coverage across the screen width with no light bleed behind the screen.
