Overview

The Klipsch R-30C measures nearly 26 inches across in a low, wide cabinet, built for tabletop placement below or near a screen.

The elongated shape and RCA connection point to use as a horizontal speaker positioned under a television, rather than a bookshelf pair meant for stands. At 13 pounds it stays light enough to move without dedicated mounting hardware.

  • Tabletop mount design
  • 3.5 inch driver
  • Black finish
  • 13 lb, roughly 26 in wide

Who it's for

Buyers who want a wide, low-profile Klipsch speaker to sit on a table or media console near a TV. Not a match for anyone needing stand or wall mounting.
