True Plug-and-Play High-Fidelity Sound
The R-41PM takes the guesswork out of building a great audio system. With its built-in amplifier, all you need is a power outlet and your favorite audio source. No need to purchase or connect a separate receiver. This makes the R-41PM an excellent choice for users who want minimal equipment with maximum performance.
Thanks to its onboard digital signal processing and amplification, the R-41PM is tuned to deliver balanced, room-filling sound. It’s ideal for apartments, bedrooms, small living rooms, and desktop setups.
Signature Klipsch Acoustic Design
At the heart of the R-41PM’s performance are Klipsch’s signature drivers and acoustic technology. The 1” aluminum LTS (Linear Travel Suspension) tweeter is housed in a 90° x 90° Tractrix horn. This combination dramatically increases efficiency and detail, providing dynamic, crisp highs with minimal distortion.
The 4” copper-spun IMG (Injection Molded Graphite) woofer delivers tight, impactful bass and rich midrange tones. It’s lightweight, rigid, and highly responsive, ensuring fast and accurate sound reproduction across music, movies, and games.
Together, this driver configuration creates a broad and detailed soundstage that brings your audio to life with clarity and presence.
Dynamic Bass EQ
The R-41PM includes a built-in Dynamic Bass EQ system that automatically adjusts bass response based on volume level. At lower volumes, bass frequencies are boosted slightly to maintain full, rich sound. This ensures that you get satisfying low-end performance even during quiet listening sessions, without the need for a subwoofer.
For bass lovers or those with larger spaces, the R-41PM also features a subwoofer output, making it easy to add a powered sub and create a more robust 2.1 setup.
Versatile Input Options
One of the R-41PM’s standout features is its wide array of connectivity options. These powered speakers are compatible with virtually any modern or vintage audio source:
-
Bluetooth for wireless streaming from smartphones, tablets, or laptops
-
USB input for high-resolution audio playback from computers
-
Phono/Line RCA with a built-in switchable phono preamp, perfect for connecting turntables
-
Optical (TOSLINK) for digital sources like TVs or gaming consoles
-
3.5mm aux for portable devices or older media players
-
Subwoofer output to connect an external powered subwoofer
This broad compatibility makes the R-41PM one of the most flexible speaker systems in its class. Whether you’re connecting a record player, gaming system, TV, or streaming device, setup is quick and simple.
Clean, Modern Design
Visually, the R-41PM stays true to Klipsch’s modern, industrial aesthetic. Each speaker features a durable MDF cabinet with a black textured wood grain vinyl finish. The copper-colored woofer adds a bold, eye-catching element that reflects Klipsch’s performance-first philosophy.
The included magnetic grilles provide a clean, minimalist look when attached, or you can leave them off to show off the signature components inside.
Compact in size, the R-41PM measures just over 11 inches tall and 5.75 inches wide—making it suitable for bookshelves, desktops, or entertainment stands without overwhelming your space.
Built for Convenience
In addition to its powerful performance and versatile connections, the R-41PM is incredibly easy to use. A compact remote control allows you to adjust volume, switch inputs, and control playback from across the room. Volume and input controls are also located on the rear of the active speaker, along with all connection ports.
The powered speaker connects to the passive one with standard speaker wire (included), and the system is ready to play in minutes. Whether you’re streaming from your phone or spinning records, the R-41PM gives you full control with minimal effort.
