good sub
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a big improvement over existing sub. I would give it a 9 out of 10. Clear and decently loud.

Love it
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This SW is a beast, adds so much loudness to the speakers I already have. I use it for music mostly. Takes some adjustments, just a matter of personal preference. I love it, I think my neighbor hates me. I bought an open box item in excellent condition.

Good Product for the money
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this on the Black Friday sale, when it was half off retail. Good entry level sub, but lacks the power of the higher quality brands.

Great sub, goes very well with my Klipsch towers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Glad I was able to score this sub on sale, it sounds really well in the family room with the two Klipsch towers I purchased over a year ago.

Look no further
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is it, the best woofer at a decent price. I've had Polk and a few soundbars but nothing touches what this can do. You will not be disappointed. Would be nice to have a remote for base control but I wouldn't pay the extra $300 just to have it (along with more power).

Excellent sound, replaced an old Paradigm sub
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this one to replace an aged and worn out Paradigm sub of a similar size. The old sub made an awful rattle noise when it produced moderate to hard bass. turned out the surround of the speaker was torn in two places. It was several years old, and just wore out I guess.

Great Klipsch Sound
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent sound quality. For a Klipsch speaker, I thought it would be louder, but I am still satisfied with what I got for the price.

Boom, boom, boom!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The low frequencies this sub produces is nice! My house shakes and I'm sure my neighbors are thinking about moving :) Good product!

Booms, doesn’t politely slap
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good sub for booming surround sound for watching movies. Not good for tight, accurate, musical sounding bass.

Powerful
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Powerful bass but not as crisp and well defined as higher end subs. Better for home theater than music. Good value.

Boom
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like this speaker for the most part for the price I got it. It’s a little boomy sometimes. I have it placed behind my chair and sometimes I have to reach around and turn gain down on some movies because it over power the rest of the movie.

first time buying sub, so far, seems great
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The quality and size of the sub is good. The options for sound are easy and work well. The auto works well. I was told to buy the single to single cable and should have bought a double to single. It did not work right until I did that.

Powerful and clear sound

Booming sound
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s not as good as the top of the line Klipsch but it is more than enough for my living room.

Great Sub, Only One Flaw
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's really light, but it sounds heavy. Great sub, only con is, AutoON/Off doesn't work. The manual says it's supposed to power off after 15-20 min. of no signal. Mine stayed ON for two weeks (the switch is set to auto). I bought a power strip with switched and unswitched outlets, plugged my AVR in the "Master" and the sub in the "Switched". Now it powers down when I cut off my receiver.

This one has promise
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had an 8" Energy subwoofer that died just months after it's less than two year warrantee, so I'm hoping this Klipsch Subwoofer will last many more years. I even paid for an extended warrantee only because I just don't have alot of confidence in the life span of stereo products and other electronics or appliances these days because it seems like everything is sold and built with a guaranteed fail date. So, with this subwoofer, all I can say is, so far so good.

Good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good, but not great. Powerful in its own right, but doesn't hit some of the desired lows.
