    Not a bad subwoofer speaker for under $300. I previously owned the Klipsch Reference Series 12" 200W RMS subwoofer speaker. It sadly died suddenly after 8 years of home-theater use. Let's see if this one lasts longer with twice the power.

    Big enough to fill a large room, but not so big that it can't work in a smaller room. Connected as a 5.1 system in an open concept living room and it works fantastic

    This speaker is a little big. And there isn't much base at all. Not what I expected.

    For the money - THIS IS EXCELLENT! I had a 19 Year old REFERENCE 15" Klipsch BASH Sub that went out.I decided to check this out. I am very pleased considering the price.

    Wow what’s up Klipsch? The 121sw measures 10” not 12”. Why advertise as 12”?This newer version imo sucks. Not bad for a 10” but if you want to fill a big room you will need 2 of these. Not the same as the previous 12” that actually measures 12”.

    My polk audio sub finally stopped working i couldnt afford a new polk audio so i opted for this. I love the sound coming out of this subwoofer. I got it during best buy sale event and i wish i bought 2 of them. If you thinking about buying one, do it. I promise you you wont regret. It matches well with all my other speakers too.

    Good in the price range. If you are asking yourself a question, should I spend the extra money and upgrade to a level higher than this, you should.

    The sub itself is huge, but the amount of sound you get out of it is ridiculous. I barely have the gain up at all for regular tv/movie watching, anymore and the walls start shaking. But the frequencies it's hitting are perfect to fill in the low end that the rest of my setup was lacking. I would highly recommend.
