    AWESOME! I purchased 2 of these for a home movie theater room and they make the movies hit hard! One probably is all I needed but 2 cover the bass like nothing else.

    What a difference this sub made. I had a klipsch 12 inch sub for 10 years and it finally gave out. Replaced it with this and wow! Thumping bass and crisp. Gonna buy another to round off the sound.

    Nice upgrade to my existing surround sound system. I’m adding a second sub and this one covers the low end with a ton of thump. Perfect choice. Can’t go wrong with Klipsch.

    Replaced my Harman Kardon with a Denon S960H receiver , my JBL sub was on the blink so I returned to Best Buy to pick up this 12” boomin sub. Explosions in movies make the room shake even at low volumes. At a little over $400 I was happy then it went on sale for $299, thanks to Best Buy for giving me the price drop. Again, this was a fantastic speaker at full price, if you’re in the market for a sub, don’t think twice, get this woofer. What an upgrade!

    The deep, booming bass requires some fine tuning to get the cross frequencies matched with the rest of the system. However, once properly tuned, the sub is amazing.

    Super clean sound. I have not had one instance yet of a muddled bass sound on music or movies. I highly recommend. I used two opposing for optimum performance.

    I purchased this during Black Friday specials for half the price it was a no brainer. I previously had a Sony surround system but for a strange reason I didn’t have a subwoofer I added this to the mix and immediately knew I had to upgrade my entire system. I have this in a medium sized room and it vibrates throughout the house. The lows it can produce are outstanding it maybe a little on the expensive side if you buy at full price but from what I’ve noticed every Black Friday it’s on sale for 50% off so if you can wait do it but if money is no biggie I say go for it now. As always you get what you pay for.

    I added this Klipsch 12" subwoofer as the .1 in my 5.1 set up, and it has made a world of difference. The 10" subwoofers in my Def Tech BP7004 towers don't work anymore due to the drivers going bad, which appears to be normal, but I must say the Klipsch 12" woofer is better than what I had before. The set up was easy. My Yamaha TSR-700 set up my entire system and balanced the subwoofer which is only being used at about 1/2 power, but is plenty enough. It produces rich, warm, lows to punchy base lines when appropriate, and makes watching movies and videos exciting.
