Pros: A Dolby Atmos elevation speaker that also works as a surround, with the 5.25” Cerametallic woofer and horn loaded titanium tweeter of the Klipsch RP-500M II.
Cons: No independent measurements yet, so its tonal balance and directivity can’t be compared with ranked speakers. Its angled cabinet suits only height or surround duty, and it needs a subwoofer for bass.
