Outstanding Sound, Deep Clean Bass, Loud!
Outstanding subwoofer. I have been into car and home audio since I was a teen in the early/mid 90s. I have owned home speakers from Klipsh, Bowers & Wilkins, Polk Audio, JBL Reference, Paradigm and car audio speakers from Focal, MB Quart, Infinity Kappa, Polk Audio, Diamond Audio, JBL to name a few so I know a thing or two about audio. I connected this sub to my Denon A/V Receiver, JBL Reference Fronts, Center and Bowers & Wilkins small surround speakers in a 12×16′ room. This is a budget set up for my home Cigar Lounge. I set the gain to 30% in order to do the initial break in. I can tell you this sub sounds amazing for $220. At 30% gain it fills the room nicely with clean, deep bass. I really thought about spending the extra $ on the Klipsh SPL sub, I am glad I didnt as this is more than enough for my room and needs. This is a huge upgrade from my 12″ Infinity Sub, extremely happy with it.

Great price on a good sub
I picked this up via Woot through Amazon at a really nice price. This was the last item I needed in order to fill out my Klipsch home theater. I have this paired with a 5.1 set of bookshelf reference speakers and it was the cherry on top.Initial setup sounded pretty terrible due to the settings I was utilizing for the previous underpowered 8″ sub I was using, a Polk Audio. It was gifted to me so…To the point, I had to spend about three hours recalling, looking up manuals and frequency charts going through various settings on the Denon receiver in order to produce the correct sound. The first setup on prior settings was super muddy and overpowering. I took the time to adjust the crossover settings and gain level and was able to get the new sub performing as was expected. It is very powerful and very heavy on presence. It sounds good throughout it’s power and volume range and matches well to the reference speakers I already had completed.Highly recommended if you want very punchy, very powerful bass. It sounds really good both with media content as well as various forms of music. I would say the only down side to the speaker is it’s tendency to be muddy/strong. The price this was on sale for and it’s pairing with the other components on hand is solid.As a side note, and not a reflection on Woot (the seller) but as a note of warning and caution for Amazon specifically in regard to their delivery drivers. I was out of town on the projected delivery date. It was unavoidable due to scheduling and at the price was afraid it would be gone when I got back. I got a notification that it was “delivered and handed directly to a resident”. I called my son who was home and asked him about it and he said it was not here. The driver did NOT take a picture of the item like they commonly do. This aspect was quite worrisome considering the cost of the item. Right about the time as I was about to contact Amazon about the issue the item turned up on the middle of my driveway at 8:45 PM. It was only packed in it’s retail box, no covering, plainly obvious as to what it was. I am super glad that I live in an area that is both low in crime and a dead end neighborhood. This could EASILY have walked off. It would be worthwhile for Amazon to discuss with their drivers appropriate CYA in regard to items like this. Dropping off some $5 item “wherever” is one this….this, well…In spite of that SNAFU if the speaker is available for that sub dual bill sale price it’s more than a steal of a deal. Highly recommended.

Klipsch continues to deliver quality sound
The Klipsch R-12SW Subwoofer is a fantastic addition to my audio setup and a worthy successor to the Klipsch subwoofer it replaced, which lasted me over 15 years. I’ve been a huge fan of Klipsch speakers since I first discovered them in the mid-90s, and when it came time for a replacement, there was no question I’d stick with the brand.While I wouldn’t call myself an audiophile, I can confidently say the quality of this subwoofer is exceptional, especially for its price. The advancements in technology over the past decade are immediately noticeable. The bass tones are clear, precise, and powerful without the muddiness I’ve experienced with other non-Klipsch subwoofers in the past.The build quality of the R-12SW is also top-notch. The sturdy, well-constructed box plays a significant role in delivering clean and resonant bass. Whether watching movies or listening to music, this subwoofer performs exceptionally well across various sound profiles.Klipsch continues to deliver on its reputation for high-quality audio equipment. The R-12SW Subwoofer is a clear demonstration of why I’ve stuck with the brand for decades. It offers an impressive blend of performance, durability, and value that’s hard to beat. Whether you’re a seasoned audiophile or just someone who appreciates high-quality sound, this subwoofer won’t disappoint. Highly recommended!

This thing… is a beast! shakes windows ect… if that’s what you want 🙂
It’s a bass sub woofer for sure, goes deeper and louder than I would ever want. Sturdy, Good looking, heavy cabinet, Beautiful Bass accent to my movies like (Bladerunner 2049) gets my blood PUMPING! Not to mention all the music I listen to. It is used with my SONY STR DH590 and two really big speakers (w/15 inch woofers) This has a feature, I just leave it on auto and it will automatically turn on with my TV/stereo. I have this for one and a half years now, no problems. Sub woofers always made a HUGE difference for me, in home or auto. Never go without one I say.

P die Bass Qualität ist brutal das ganze Haus wackelt perfekte Hip Hop Rap Techno Nachteil eigentlich keine bloß das bei den heutigen Surround Aufnahmen ein paar kleinere Bass Treiber für Explosion und so von Vorteil sind dass dieser extrem schwere 30cm Bass natürlich da nicht so schnell hinterher kommen aber wie gesagt den Klang fühlt . Bleib was für dich ist wenn du gut wärst würde ich es ist nein es hat in mir die Hoffnung geweckt ich könnte mir das komplette Set holen aber allein das Center kostet ja mehrere 1000 € Typ ist halt nicht billig aber ist mein absolutes Traum equipment digitale Verstärker eingebaut extrem rauscharm Klasse d man sollte unbedingt achten er muss 2 m von der Wand weg sonst erschüttern die Erschütterung ganzen Dachziegeln der Chuck Norris des Paars inbas also ich kann es nur empfehlen uneingeschränkt bleib geschmeidig.. weiter hintere Infos unter night your music flows nitromusic@outlook.de

お値段を考えるとお買い得だと思います。ローエンドはそこまで伸びないけど十分な低音は出ます。ただ、14畳のAVルームだと36cmウーハークラスがよかったかなとおもっています。銅蒸着振動板は見た目が格好良いです。

J’en utilise deux pour renforcer les basses de mes cabasses , ça fonctionne plutôt bien mais les caisses ne sont pas assez rigides , elles vibrent de partout ce qui fait que le moindre objet que l’on pose dessus tombe . Au vu de la marque je pensais que les boiseries seraient de meilleure qualité , plus épaisses .J’ai du caisson cabasse et il y a aucune vibration de caisse , idem avec du JAMO .les délais de livraison et les emballages sont trés bien , les finitions des caisse sont bien , c’est un caisson imposant !!!

Da premettere che guardando gli altoparlanti di questo famoso marchio me ne sono subito innamorato. Ho visto tanti video e letto tante recensioni,che ovviamente cambiano da persona a persona essendo soggettiva la cosa,ma vi posso assicurare che l’audio che ascolti nei video su YouTube etc,non rende minimamente giustizia all’audio reale ascoltato di presenza. Sto creando il mio impianto audio e aspetto che arrivi tutto il resto,i primi ad arrivare sono stati i due subwoofer,vi posso confermare che a mio parere fanno paura,hanno un basso che ti entra dentro,sembra di avere la sala cinema nella propria camera. ” Figuratevi che la sera devo metterli a(-12 ) per poter vedere un film Senza disturbare i vicini,dato che abito in un condominio “. Inizialmente ho avuto un po’ di ansia data la cifra spesa,perché non si riusciva minimamente a tracciare la merce,ma contattando il venditore tramite Amazon,si è subito messo a disposizione,venditore che io valuto molto educato,serio e rispettoso,pacchi arrivati anche 6 giorni prima della data prestabilita. Questa è la mia recensione dopo due settimane di utilizzo,spero durino nel tempo perché sono uno spettacolo. Vi sottolineo che essendo americane dovete comprare un adattatore perché la presa non è italiana,quindi come me ci rimarreste male se all’arrivo del prodotto non potreste provarlo subito.Che dire…Totalmente soddisfatto,sia del prodotto che del venditore,le consiglio vivamente a chi ama un basso corposo e intenso…
