    Looks nice sounds good. Only time will tell is it passes the Polk audio it replaced. The Polk weighed significantly more. One day I’ll put them head to head.

    Amazing bass out of this thing. Blows my old Sony away. Wish I would have stepped up to the Klipsch sub a long time ago. Now I am in the process of changing all my home theater to Klipsch. Pricey but if you are after sound quality, they just dont let you down.

    I had a Polk audio prior that the board went out of so I decided to try the Klipsch. I was not disappointed! Outstanding sub!

    This is an amazing subwoofer that definitely bring the bass in movie theaters to your home. Having an addiction of decking out my car stereo systems I would usually take the working old car subs and use them for my home systems. Wanted something this time that looked nice, belonged in the theater room and performed. This absolutely does the job and more.

    Klipsch is one of the best brands out there. I have owned several pieces through the decades and had no problems at all. Highest quality and best sounding of them all.

    Klipsch are not known for their subs but this thing really pounds! I have no complaints on the quality and also own a couple Klipsch 10's that don't disappoint either. I'm sure if I went with an SVS or REL sub - it would be a night and day comparison. But if you find this sub on sale, there really is nothing better at the price.

    12" bass is so much better than a 10" bass it's no contest. Got this with amazon price match so it was such a good deal I couldn't pass it up Sounds great with Denon amp and surround sound speakers put it in a corner with wireless sub connection and works perfectly

    This sub is fantastic, definitely recommend it but not at full price. These subs look and sound awesome, particularly for movies. With music, for the average person, it is more than enough. If you’re looking for details: it is ridiculously loud from 50 down to 30 hz and then it sharply drops down to barely audible. It doesn’t distort and will shake your walls.

    bought these on clearance, purchased 2 in fact. These really rock my somewhat small living room. I prefer lower priced Woofers as i've found subs tend to only last a few years before requiring a plate amp. Hoping the quality on these provides 5+ years of service. I budget shop when it comes to stereo equipment so keep that in mind when reading this review.

    I am a big believer in my Martin Logan and BW's but this speaker was great for the kids gaming room. Sounds really nice for the price , way more power then needed so the gain is around 15%.
