    I was replacing a Klipsch 15 inch sub that I have had for years I wanted another 15 however the 12 went on sale and I got a great deal I'm glad that I purchased it it hits almost as hard as the 15 way better than other name brand Subs my setup is all reference series Klipsch Left Right Center sub highly recommended you need to tweak the setup I have a Denon which did it automatically if you're looking for a value with a big sound I recommend it

    Dear Lord. This thing is an absolute game changer. It has turned my home theater into an IMAX. LOL I cranked it to medium on the first day and my neighbors knocked on the door. The vibrations are phenomenal. This woofer has zero issues with the low gravely bass in motion picture action scenes. It shines, actually. Amazing. I got it half price on sale and best sale purchase i ever made.

    This sub is a monster. Hits all notes incredibly well. My houses foundation is going to be garbage after listening to this thing! My only complaint if I had to have one is it’s just absolutely massive.

    It sounds great. Honestly didn't think a bass this small would produce such a loud and hearty bass. Highly recommend, especially when it is on sale.

    Provides great bass for movies and music. Rattles stuff on my walls and moves stuff on shelves. Well worth the money IMO, especially at half price!

    This sub ROCKS literally. It could shake my whole house if I wanted it to. It has excellent low end bass and hits crossovers wonderfully. I was originally going to buy the 10" but ended up getting a better deal on this one. I regret nothing. I have it paired with a Denon receiver and Klipsch r28, r41 front and back, and RP440c. Every part plays well off one another. I extremely recommend this subwoofer to everyone regardless of system brands.

    No rumbling or vibrations with this 12" version. Have only one but base is not compromised and is punchy and tight without any extras that older subs delivered. Big improvement over 8" version.

    Upgraded from 10 inch sub and immediately noticed the difference. Moved into a larger space and the 12 is a huge improvement in this larger room

    This subwoofer instantly gave my music distortion free bass without the muffling sound present in some subwoofers. Very clear, distinct bass gave the music the foundation it was lacking.

    This subwoofer blows my old Polk unit right out the door! Solid bass and LOUD! I had to tame it down to satisfy my neighbor (moved it to the other side of the room, away from our shared wall). It still sounds good, even tamed down. The bass sounds wonderful and clean. The Apollo 13 launch rattles the rafters! It makes a good match to my Polk Signature speakers I use for the rest of my 5.1.2 system. I am now a happy camper!

    I bought 2 of these subwoofers for my home theatre and they work great! I love the front firing woofer, I’ve always had down fired woofers, but these are great for rooms with wood floors.

    I just added this to my set up as a second sub and am very happy with the amount of bass this puts out for the price. I might replace my Definitive sub in my other room with one of these!

    I did my research I this one, and the reviews are correct. Great sound and easy to use. One cable and two knobs. It produces great sound from my streaming services including Hulu, Netflix, YouTube, and Amazon TV. All these are streamed threw my Fire TV 4K Ultra into my Denon receiver. I haven’t had to turn the sub woofer up more than half way, so it’s definitely producing enough bass for all my needs.

    The bass sound is so nice. Adds to your movie experience!! I’ve purchased about 13 Klipsch speakers for different rooms (theater) (living room) etc... and have never been disappointed!

    I’ve been using 2 Sony 10 inch subwoofers for a while and have been for the most part happy. I just purchased this subwoofer because I wanted to try it out and WOW... This subwoofer is a beast and out performs my 2 Sonys. I cannot recommend this subwoofer enough. What a difference a quality speaker makes. Crazy as it sounds but I will add a second one later. It literally shakes the house and the sofas.

    Klipsch is my favorite home audio brand it’s affordable and also very good quality this bass bumps loud enough for any music or theatre enthusiasts. And the look of the gold speaker in the black cabinet is sleek. The quality is undeniably perfect suits the room nice and not to bulky. The sound is perfect in tone and works well with the system in a medium sized room.
