    No home theatre is complete without thunderous base you can feel in your chest. This woofer from Klipsch’s Reference Series will not disappoint. I connected it to my Denon AVR and Klipsch Reference book shelf speakers for amazing high fidelity music and movies. Great value, especially when on sale.

    This sub sounds great, but when you can get the same brand and size sub with 50% more power from another place, I can't recommend getting this one unless it's on sale.

    Purchased this to upgrade from an older Polk 10” sub we’ve had for years. Huge difference, our system finally sounds like it should. The Black Friday deal was an added bonus. Only downside is some decorations that need to be secured better to eliminate some rattles.

    I wish I could rate this sub 5 stars, as it sounds great. Bass is clean and tight, with plenty of power. The problem is that I purchsed it on 11/23 and the amp died on 1/04. Didn't make it 2 months. I am exchaniging it at Best Buy today,the 5th of Jan. Hopefully this one lasts. If it does last, I'll rate it again.

    outstanding sub. I paired up my 28 year old Bose AM-7 Series double cube front speakers [3 up front] and the two rear Bose VS-100 Video speakers. Great sound with old school verses new technolegy

    This Klipsch subwoofer is the perfect compliment to my already existing Klipsch speaker system. The sub just enhances music and movies and makes the listening experience that much better.
