For the price I honestly am impressed!! Another 5 star review for this unit! 👍 hits the lows very well for a home sub in a midsized room. Gotta give it to klipsch on this one! Definitely great for anyone who wants decent deep bass for a decent price! Go on! Scoop one of these bad boys up! Tuned low and still shakes my chair very slightly sitting back in it.

This Klipsch unit was number 3 on my short list of subwoofer choices. It came behind the Elac Debut 2.0 Subwoofer to pair with my Elac Debut 2.0 B2.6 (Amazon 1/21) which was on ebay as a cosmetically beaten up department store floor demo which I’m sure audio-wise got about as much attention as the wall moulding. The other was the JBL Sub 550p, a $600 machine on sale at Harmon for $200. This was a sealed cabinet, 50lb monster and I really lusted for it. Unfortunately, my funds finally came through 2 days after the Elac was sold and 1 day after the JBL’s sale ended. Poor me, it was the Klipsch or nuthin’. As it happened, I was able to save myself a little $$$s by going for the Amazon reduced price option where I found a warehouse damaged item. It ended up being perfect and new in every important way.So as it turned out, poor me… nuthin’! Right out of the box this machine is a solid, imposing, impressive, almost monolithic piece of furniture. Set-up is easy as my HK 3490 Receiver has an RCA Sub Out. The Elac speakers are very inefficient at 86db sensitivity, so I set the gain dial at only 9:00 o’clock. The instructions advised 12:00 be the baseline vollume for a receiver hook-up like mine, but that turned out to be incorrect. At this point my understanding of LFE vs Line Level Output is still rather vague. I had also thought that a low crossover setting of 55-60 hz would suit the Elacs, rated for a 44hz low but I was wrong. I’m finding that 90 – 100 hz will still complement the speakers while supplementing their output, adding just a bit of low-end oomph.And after a short 10 day break-in period, I’m finding I’m really liking that bit of oomph with the cello of a Beethoven string quartet or the tympanic rolls of a Bartok concerto, instruments that I can now feel in the pit of my stomach.. But when I put on Romantic Warrior of Return To Forever or Imaginary Worlds of Sammy Figueroa and crank up the 120 wpc of the HK, the Klipsch, at present settings is more than enough force to knock me down and beat me up. Ahhhh….hurt me.To conclude, after break-in the bass on this unit is clean and tight and real powerful when you need it to be. At any of the Amazon pricings it represents an excellent buy and if you’re looking for a sub for a medium range audio system it definitely merits your strong consideration. I’m certainly happy enough.

Great price on the sub….paired with Klipsch r-50pm speakers and the sound is awesome. I had to turn the sub down a bit because this thing will BUMP!!

The brand is know for great quilts and this did not disappoint. Looks great sounds great too I have it on so low and it’s still shacks the room. I mean it’s only turned to about a 1/8 of an inch. If you are looking To power a small room get something smaller and much less then this.

I like the deep base but my wife does not. So, the sub woofer is turned off unless I am watching a movie by myself.
