It may seem a familiar look for those who have visited Australian hi-fi shows,
but this modular false-wall design for behind-screen home cinema use comes not from South Australia but from US manufacturer Klipsch. The Real Custom Cinema systems are designed and built in Arkansas, USA, leveraging the company’s experience in real cinemas to provide combined LCR and subwoofer packages for the home market.
There are three versions. The RCC-102-BTS is designed for rooms up to 30m3 and screens of 117-129-inch 16:9 ratio, or 110-121-inch 2.35:1. The LCR modules have 1.75-inch titaniumdiaphragm compression drivers and 15-inch polyfibre woofers, whole the sub modules have 18-inch polyfibre drivers. Next size up is the
RCC-112-BTS, with larger 3-inch compression drivers, and suited to rooms up to 55m3 and screens of 128-140-inch for 16:9 or 122-132-inch for 2.35:1. Finally the RCC-122-BTS enlarges the voice coils for all the woofers to deliver a system suited to rooms up to 85m3 and screens of 140-inch for 16:9 or 132-inch for 2.35:1.
Klipsch’s Australian distributor Premium Audio Co. has announced that from June Snap AV will be a national distribution partner for the RCC series.
