The Klipsch RP-160M is a passive 2-way bookshelf loudspeaker with a bass-reflex cabinet and rear-firing Tractrix port. Designed for high dynamics and high volume from modest amplifier power, it uses a 1-inch titanium LTS tweeter in a Tractrix horn along with a 6.5-inch Cerametallic woofer. The model was introduced in 2015 and is described in review and pricing sources as a great-sounding, highly efficient compact loudspeaker; pricing indicates that as of 2026 it is still found at closeout or used-market prices from around 229 EUR.
