My neighbors keep complaining
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great subwoofer. Easy to set up and puts out great deep bass. My only problem is that the neighbors have started to complain about the rumble even when it's not turned up. I guess that's why their slogan is: "Annoying the neighbors since 1946.

So awesome I bought two!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For all of you audiophiles, this is perfect. If you can catch it on sale, even better! It hits hard and you don’t even have to turn the volume on full to get the rich lows and thunderous booms. Blends very well with the in-ceiling Sonance speakers I paired it with.

||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you like hard-hitting bass you definitely want this 12-in sub. Looks beautiful with all the other matching speakers. I liked this one so much that I bought a second for my home theater and man does it Rock!!

Provides good rumble
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Setup was plug and play, with minimal tuning of the crossover required. The 12" cabinet is a couple inches bigger each dimension v. the 10", so it's not as easy to hide. I've got the sub hooked to a Sony 1080 receiver, and there's no problem getting the room to shake.

Powerful lows from this reference subwoofer.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This 12” reference subwoofer replaced an old pair of 10” subwoofers. The improved sound quality is night and day. Base strength is much higher, so much so different places in the house rattle and vibrate. This sub is a sonic boom! Definitely a quality purchase.

Klisch subwoofer
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Boom explosive. I have the complete Klipsch speakers from towers, center channel, and now subwoofer. Although the pricing is steep I waited till it dropped half the cost. I wouldn't pay full price call me cheap.

My thougts
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Performs well, own 2, they do nice job rumbling the house. Bought them when they were 50% off. It would be awesome if there was a chain link to run them together and a data link to set the the volume / hertz to exact same level.

Amazing!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Wow this was such an upgrade over the other lower-cost brand I had prior! The bass is so crisp and clear I truly feel like I am at the theater now! My previous sub would make this horrible squeaking noise at certain levels and it was very frustrating. With this sub, I only get clear bass and I love it. I have no complaints at all. I have this paired with a Denon 7.2ch receiver in an Atmos setup and I'm very happy. You really do get what you pay for when it comes to home theater audio that's for sure. I started off with very inexpensive speakers and put all my money in the receiver and as I have upgraded the speakers holy cow what a difference they make. Klipsch is my new go too for sure when it comes to speakers and lesson learned. There's some things in life you can skimp on speakers are not one of them lol.

Solid bass
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They thump, and if not adjusted to perfection, they can have the scatter bass affect which is very annoying. These are a good source for someone looking to get a great sound and low range affect. I would buy hem again, now that I’ve gotten the adjustments to a science.

Best bang for the buck
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing sound, at first I didn’t think this size was going to fulfill the need of bass I wanted in the living room , just came out it was perfect sound for all types of music genres and better for movies

Pretty good.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty good. I have it in a small space at the moment. But it should open up more in a full size room. At the price though can’t beat it. Sale for $250. If it happens again I’ll get another one. Negative is that the box is thin. Not 3/4” mdf. Maybe 1/2”. Doesn’t seem to affect it. But it’s something to know.

No Bass without a Subwoofer with todays AVR's
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The new AVR home theater recivers are loaded with gadgets and short on traditional power. They are built for home automation and lack audiophile performance. Gone are the days of 3 way speaker towers with 12" or 15" Woofers. In order to accomplish what these 3 way speakers delivered when combined with two way or early 5.1 configured amps you will need to add a Subwoofer of some sort to deliver deep bass. Without a subwoofer paired with todays AVRs even non audiophiles will be disappointed. Thus the Klipsch Reference Series 12' Powered Subwoofer will deliver the bass you need for the newer 7.1 to 11.2 theater systems. I hooked mine up for wireless connection and I even take it outside by the pool and paired with 2 Klipsch CP-6 two way 6.5in woofers in zone 2. Even outdoors this woofer delivers!
