Customer Ratings & Reviews

So, I have been a long time Klipsch fan since my first set of Synergy KSF 8.5 floor speakers. Klipsch had been long known for their roots in MUSIC reproduction sound quality and accuracy. As they evolved, they blended the aspects of home theater very well, while retaining their original musical qualities. Fast forward to today, and for the first time, I am disappointed in a product I've purchased from them. Musical quality is non-existent. Maybe I'm just backward from popular opinion of what "good" means, but more or overly tuned is not always better. This was purchased to upgrade the sub in our main family room. It's not huge, but not small either. This should have fit the bill perfectly. The sub it replaced was a Polk PSW10. THAT sub is a fantastic gem that is very well rounded for general use (ie. home theater AND audio equally with minor compromise to both). Right out of the box, the Klipsch sub was boomy and fatiguing to listen to. I tried every type of music, different blu-rays, and just about every level, crossover point, setting between the sub and receiver I could think of. In all cases the sub continued to be boomy or lacked fullness when I could finally get the boom to an acceptable level. And yes, I do understand the concept and need for a break-in period, and understand what should happen to the sound during the process. The starting point for this sub isn't even remotely where I expect a well rounded sub to begin sound quality wise. Does it hit hard? Yes...and it will rattle windows. I can't argue that. However, it severely lacks the warmth, smoothness, and range I expect from Klipsch based on my past history and passion with their products. I expected at least 70% of the qualities I have with my RW-12D in my theater room, and essentially only has the boom and rumble. IF you have high quality floor speakers and need something to provide that pressurized, rumbling effect, a pair of these will work well for you. It may even work well if you need basic fill below 80Hz. This is why I rated it 2 stars and not 1, since it CAN fit a specific purpose. However, I cannot recommend this for an overall, general purpose sub. This is a sad, disappointing day to write my first review not recommending a Klipsch product. Sadly, it goes back tonight and will probably get another Polk PSW108, since I bumped the old one to my son and take backs are not a good dad move...

A little high priced but the Name brand and quality of the product is well worth it!!!

If you want added base, this is definitely the one to get. This is my 4th purchase of klipsch. A great product!

Klipsch has continued to be a top leader in quialy audio and there powered devices line up is no exception

Perfect subwoofer for a medium to large size room. Part of a 5.1 speaker system. Blends in perfectly with B&W speakers.

this subwoofer exceeded my expectation and i would recommend to anyone looking to enhance their home audio

I had the replace an old Klipsch subwoofer in my 7.1 setup. This gives me great low end to the action on the screen.

Had to replace my sub and went with this one. So far it's been a great choice. Better than the original

Amazing little thumper, will rattle pictures off the walls and wake up the neighbors. Well worth the price.

Installed a complete sound system in the family room. It is awesome to hear all of it coming together.

I wasn't sure whether to get this model or the size up but this definitely was more impressive than I expected.

When my old sub went out I have no choice to get something to replace it it's appear this was on sales. Awesome

Wow ,Wow,Wow!! Thats all I can say!! No better words to describe this great product!! Highly recommend it.

I have had a Dahlquist and Polk prior this to one. This blows them away, and the auto-on works perfect!

had the system for a month and very happy with it.

Upgraded my 18 year old Kenwood wow what a difference shakes the room and sounds great doing it

I am very please with the quality sound you get from this 10" subwoofer. No need to go up to 12".

The Powered Subwoofer worked as advertised. It has a great feature of auto power up and power off.

Heard of this brand but never owned. Recommended by my sound guy and is great product. Has an auto detect and off switch to accommodate sound impact. Works well with my Yamaha receiver and sound modes built into my lg uhd tv.

The crew came and installed as requested. They come back at my request to fix some small issues. Great job!
