    Has a great range, its spot on from 30-65hz before you can tell any roll off. It fills a large room with a abundance of low end. Definitely a great product especially for the price

    We bought a receiver for my husband for Christmas and very quickly realized that he needed new sub-woofers to go with it...this was the perfect choice...great, clear sound.

    This sub is nothing less than spectacular! The 12's are a great addition to any home theater room setup. The sounds make anything you watch come alive and fill your room with action as it was meant to be heard.

    Hard hitting, tight bass. Using 2 12's. 1 might be plenty. Totally worth it when on sale. Just don't go cheap on the receiver. Makes a huge difference.

    Really good sub for music amd not so much for home theater punch and rumble. I have an older SVS 12 that takes this thing around block and spanks it in just about every way. That also said I have older h-100 that also beats the theater performance of this sub. But where this sub really shines is in music, it has a very nice tone for music re-production. It lacks punch and range for home theater, you might have to spring for the more expensive version of this sub for that. So honestly it depends on your setup, if you can pick this up on super sale it's worth it, at full price I'm not impressed. If you have no sub look into a Bic-12 or h-100 if you are on a budget or if you have more in the budget spring for an SVS or the higher end version of this sub. But again it comes down to you and your space and your budget. I've heard better for cheaper so this thing gets an average score from me.

    I’m very much satisfied with the bass sound of this Klipsch sub. Not muddy! It goes perfectly well with my Klipsch Reference Series bookshelf speakers.

    I bought two of these and I have incredible sound. I paired them with a Denon receiver that had two sub outlets. They have variable out puts so you can tune them to your liking.

    Very solid and defined bass once gain and crossover is adjusted for room. Very nice looking but a bit big for smaller rooms. I recommend it highly for the price.

    Replaced the Klipsch 8” 350w sub. Before purchasing this one was considering using two 8” subs. This sub has more than enough punch to be your only subwoofer needed for any theatre room.

    I wasn't going to purchase this sub, I was going to build my own since I was looking for a sealed sub. When this sub went on sale, I jumped all over it. I have a satellite Klipsch system in my living room but a Velodyne ported 10 for a sub. For our bar, we have a Polk DB satellite system and didn't enjoy the sound of the Velodyne sub. I bought this sub and once it was all hooked up, I absolutely love it's performance. Our bar is in the main, open section of our house and roughly 20'x20' with 8' ceilings. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase another one of these for this room but I'll probably go ahead and build an 18" sealed sub instead and move this one into the living room.

    We purchased the Klipsch subwoofer to complete our sound system. It did take us too long to connect but it was us taking our time. Now we love the richness it adds. We are very happy with it!

    I have been drooling for this sub for a long time. It's loud, clear, tons of thump. Worth every penny. I use it on movies/tv as well as music apps and YouTube type videos.

    I bought this to replace an older klipsch synergy sub and there's a definite improvement in the added bass to everything from cable TV to uhd blu rays to music

    It is Powerful but no indication of on or off with red or green light as my previous subwoofer - adjusting to the change - sometimes seems inappropriate- slightly annoying
