    Really liking it so far. Replaced a 25 year old Yamaha SW-100 so was expecting a big difference and was not disappointed. It is sitting on a carpeted concrete basement floor and still rumbles throughout the house. I can't say that it shakes the whole house sitting on concrete as it is but it's presence is never in question. I'm afraid of what it might do upstairs in the living room. Probably have to replace all the dishes that fall out of the cupboard.

    Purchased 2 of these for my setup and they are amazing. High quality and low bass. But I really only needed 1 because they are so powerful.

    Great sub. We had a smaller 8" sub which just couldn't handle rap songs at all, and this sub was on sale. WOW! Great bass and hits hard. I wouldn't say it's the best in terms of "tightness" but it will shake the house. So, if you want deep bass and ok with it being a slight bit sloppy, then you'll really like it. Granted, it is just as accurate as most subs in this price range. When I say "tightness," I'm comparing it to a $2500 Sunfire which also as 3X bigger amp inside as well.

    This is a great powered Sub. Paired with my Denon Receiver and replacing a previously underpowered sub. Pros: -easy setup, plug, and play -deep base -fills a 2 story great room with ease -looks great, can be a main piece -Nice boom for the buck Cons: -Not small (maybe a Pro?) -Not Bluetooth​ You'll enjoy this!

    After purchasing a different sub that was a little smaller I quickly became dissapointed.. I went back and bought a second 10in sub thinking surely 2 10in subs would give me the bass I was looking for .. it did not !...then I returned both and purchased the klipsch 12in ...and finally was happy .. this sub is the perfect compliment to my dolby atmos system and it sounds like I'm at the theater!...this sub is fantastic quality!.

    The Klipsch R120-SW is a great subwoofer for the price. The sound quality is incredible! I have been a long time buyer of Klipsch speakers since the early 90's. I have 2 of these for my home theater setup. They are paired with 4 RF-820 and a RC 62-C ii. I am running this setup with a SONY STR DN1080. I am glad that I added the 2nd sub because it really does even out the distribution of the low frequency sounds. TV, Movies, and Music sound incredible. The best part is that I was able to purchase these subwoofers on sale for $249!!!

    Easy to hook up, works great. Really makes a big difference on the surround sound. Makes it easier to get into the movie. The same for music.

    All I gotta say is WOW! I've heard such great reviews and feedback about this subwoofer and I finally bought it during the early Black Friday sale. This is well worth the MSRP, but even much better value if you can get it at the sale price. The sub produces nice, crisp "booms" and handles lows very well. I have it set to about 1/4 gain and I can feel my tables, dvd rack, etc. shake. I have it paired with a pioneer elite 7.2 receiver and polk surround speakers. This sub is a must buy!
