Highly recommend Klipsch speakers and Crutchfield to anyone
Christopher from Amarillo, TX on 1/25/2023
The sound quality is excellent. Delivered the day it said it would be and in great condition. I couldn't be happier with my purchase. I would highly recommend Klipsch speakers and Crutchfield to anyone.
Pros: - Deep base you can feel in your bones (when setup as such) - Carries well even in a large area - Compliments both movie and music sounds
Cons: None

Klipsch Reference R-120SW review
Charles from Henrico, VA on 1/25/2023
They are solidly built, look good, and sound great. You will need to spend some time to get the sound to your liking. There are plenty of videos on YouTube to walk you through the process as well as support from Crutchfield is just a phone call away. You will probably only need one, but I bought two for future expansion.
Pros: They look and sound great. You will probably never use their full potential.
Cons: They would be overkill for a small room.

Great budget option
Don from Sioux Falls, SD on 1/8/2023
All in one for $300... I purchased 2 in 2020. I have pushed them quite a bit. Usually movies but sometimes I will go music mode and shake the house. One of them has a bad seal or something. At a certain frequency it sounds like air is getting by a seal or idk. I repositioned the subs and haven't heard it since then. 18x26 area that is open to a wide hallway behind it. If you have issues with bass from these, then you've got them in the wrong spot for the room. The gain on back is set at 1/4 and I have to set sub output to -12 when wife is trying to watch tv upstairs and -4 when i want to hear it all. I have done gain at 3/4 and sub output at +6 for a party night with the kids. I ended up rattling the ceiling light cans out of their mounts. Had 3 hanging by the wires. Room placement is vital for these little guys. Before moving them, I was getting vibrations in couch, but sound was lacking. Placed the subs on my couch and crawled around. Almost couldn't tell the subs were on in one spot that I had a sub. The cabinets were shaking in the bar area and overhead ceiling lights were rattling, but I heard no bass. Found the sweet spot 2 feet left of the left sub. Stacked them both in that position and it's like I added more subs to the mix. Yes, there is better, bigger... but for the price and ease of use, these get the jobs done. For this price I would consider getting 2 more.
Pros: Cheap
Cons: Underpowered as 1, sounds great with 2.

Subwoofer Upgrade
Kelly from Grand Rapids, MI on 1/5/2023
This is the first piece I bought to upgrade my surround system. From the first note it was obvious how much more powerful and clear this is than my old subwoofer. Enough so that I had to make adjustments so it didn't overwhelm my other speakers. The set up was quick, the adjustments easy. I did notice at a higher power I could hear which direction the sound came from instead of it permeating the room.

Klipsch #2
Mark A. from Colorado Springs, CO on 12/23/2022
This is my second Klipsch subwoofer. I recently bought a R-121SW. This one is a little smaller, but seems to pack the same punch. Placement seems to be the determining factor. I mentioned in my post for the R-121 SW that I was replacing my JBL SUB 550Ps. There is definitely a difference in the subs the Klipsch are 12" ported, and the JBLs are 10" sealed with higher output. The bass can be overpowering from the Klipsch so the frequency and gain knobs will definitely take some setting to get right. I used the YPAO mic for my Yamaha receiver and the bass still seems to overpower the rest. It sounds great, don't get me wrong. I feel like the JBL Sub 550Ps might be more accurate. Hope this helps.
Pros: -Serious bass -size of the speaker is just right
Cons: Bass can be overpowering.

Wished we added this sooner
Michele from N Muskegon, MI on 12/23/2022
We have had Klipsch all around in our home theater for years, in fact our main's are legacy Klipsch Forte' II 's which had been handling the bass . However we noticed our Denon AVR-S950H running very hot and we were impressed by the Klipsch 10" subwoofer we recently purchased for our stereo room so we took a chance on adding R-120 SW to our home theater. WOW are we impressed on what it added to bass response and our receiver does not get as hot. Wished we would have added a subwoofer sooner to our home theater. We highly recommend this subwoofer.
Pros: Easy hookup. Solidly built. Great low bass.
Cons: None

Finally Complete
Jerry from Fresno, TX on 12/5/2022
Finally Complete. I purchased the Cambridge CXA81 and Bower Wilkens 606 bookshelf speakers and from all I read I should have been satisfied however, I was left wanting something more. I am a Jazz man but I was missing something and I found it in the R-120sw. It brings the bass and sets the tone for the other speakers to produce clear notes. Now it is way more than I needed but boy does it do the job.
Pros: Truly great sound
Cons: Very very big

Clean, Rich, Deep, Detailed
Rick from DALTON, MA on 11/20/2022
I have an older (early 2000s) Klipsch Sub 10 that seemed to be failing. I have since resurrected it though. But, decided to upgrade anyway. Crutchfield rep Seth confirmed that the R-120SW would work and offer better reproduction as it has a 12 inch driver and more power. On top of that, it would not break the bank! Yep! This sub delivers. It has a deep low end, very rich and defined. It is not boomy. Coupled with the rest of the audio, one becomes immersed. It does not take long to dial it in and then it becomes invisible. That is what a sub woofer should do and this Klipsch does this nicely. Coupled to an Onkyo RZ50, this combination is exceptional. Cosmetically, this sub looks like wood. It even feels like wood. It blends in with the rest of the system. There is a soft glowing green LED in the upper left that lights when powered up. It is barely visible with the grill cover on which is perfect. My experience with Klipsch has been very positive. I didn't look at other manufacturers when choosing a replacement. The previous sub I had was rich and defined and it used a smaller driver. So, I already knew that this one would be as good, if not better. Get this sub. You won't be disappointed.
Pros: Small footprint Rich, deep, defined bass response Looks like furniture Front firing driver, with rear port Excellent price point
Cons: None!

This is replacing a older Polk Audio 10^ subwoofer. There is a huge difference in the bass it delivers. It is primarily used for movies, but it is also very musical. Used in conjunction with Klipsch RP-280F front speakers and RP-450C center channel. It blends in seamlessly without overwhelming but it delivers a good punch in the chest.

Nice but Large Speaker
Roland from Elizabethton, TN on 10/1/2022
This speaker is the subwoofer for an Onkyo driven Home Theater Surround Sound System. It is large and takes up a lot of space so make sure you have the room for it. But it delivers deep, clear sound with no noticeable distortion at volumes all along the reasonable listening scale. It comes with an optional magnetically mounted fabric screen to cover the entire face of the speaker making the entire unit black when in place. It was priced well and performs flawlessly.

Absolutely amazing
Crutchfield customer from Mission, TX on 4/2/2021
This subwoofer is just amazing. I use this subwoofer in a small 11x8 office, and for this application this speaker is absolute overkill, but boy is it fun. This thing is huge and barely fits under my desk, but the size shows its value in its performance. I use it mainly for music and I just absolutely love the amount of bass it is capable of. I also like the controls to adjust the levels of bass for when you don't want to have the windows raddle. Have nothing negative to say about this subwoofer and would definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for something in this price range.

I always thought my old Infinity RS6000s handles base pretty well, and they do, but when I got a new pre-amp that had a sub output, I became curious, and then I caught this model on sale. Getting it set up and tuned to my system and environment was a snap, and I've been blown away by the additional dimension this sub adds to the music. I have the filter set at about 75Hz, and that provides just the right base complement for the Infinity's low end. I like the auto on/off mode. This is a great subwoofer.

Great bottom. Resounding
Bob from Coram,NY on 3/12/2021
Excellent unit for the price. Resounding bottom mixes well with my B&W 686's. Streaming audio requires a drop in volume while CD and Surround require a bump up. Manual volume adjustment is the only incinvenience..
Pros: Great bottom. Placement is everything
Cons: manual volume adjustment

Hudson from ELKTON, MD on 1/20/2021
So far so good. These subwoofers are very efficient so be sure to set your speaker to match the balance setting on your surround amp or receiver. You may find you have to reduce the subwoofer volume first before you balance the system using a speaker auto-calibration.

Big boy
Nick from Tulsa, OK on 1/7/2021
The average rating for this is 5 so that ought to tell you something. I have a small living room so I was pretty worried about how big it was (I like bass so not THAT worried.) When I got it set up it didn't sound like I expected. I went on for a couple days playing music and such never sounding perfect it finally happened. After the break in period this thing bangs. If you're reading this wondering if if you need this...just pull the trigger. This sub rocks. I have a crawl space house and when I crank it I can feel my floor vibrate.

Nice for the price
Crutchfield customer from New Smyrna, FL on 1/4/2021
The only reason for the four star is because right out of the box, one of the subs had a bad amp. I bought two of these, one was perfect and the other had that issue. Now don't get me wrong, I contacted Crutchfield and they sent a new amp under warranty, easy plug and play swap, sent the old one in and no charges on my end. The subs hit very well, especially within their price point. For their price, I think the subs are awesome. In the future I will be upgrading to the premier subs as the quality is much better, obviously with a much higher price tag. But for now, these are great.
Pros: Nice for my configuration Hit well, pretty solid
Cons: Just that amp, but corrected by Crutchfield

MORE Than Enough!
Bob from Sarasota, FL on 12/18/2020
Once hooked up, broken in, and adjusted, my oh my! This sub goes deep and will shake the window panes and the very house itself if you let it. I have the phase at 0, the crossover at about 50, and the gain at less than half. There's plenty left. If you need big sound bass, I can highly recommend the R-120SW.

Nice Sub
Crutchfield customer from West Chester, PA on 12/15/2020
Nice sub at the right price. Replaces an old Infinity sub that the amp failed after 12 years. Bass is tight and well defined. Played different types of music and some action movies to fine tune to my preferences. Happy with the sub and as always Crutchfield is a pleasure to do business with.
Pros: Getting it from Crutchfield! Others had it for a little less but, Critchfield's lifetime support makes all the difference. GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE!!

Love this sub-woofer. Very responsive and sounds terrific! Would buy again.
Pros: Love it. Nothing bad to say about it.
Cons: I was led to believe that this was a 50% off product. After I purchased I found it at several other places for less cost that Crutchfield. Please don't say that something is 50% off, when it is everyone else's regular price. I went ahead and bought from you anyway due to the recommendation time spent with the salesman, who was very good.

Unbelievable sound
Crutchfield customer from Arlington, VA on 12/10/2020
I already had the 15" big brother of this sub when I bought this. So I knew the sound quality would be fantastic (and that it was massive overkill for where I was putting it; but it was such a good sale at the time that it was only a few dollars more than the sub I'd seen suggested for what I needed). Anyway, it has considerably exceeded my expectations for sound. My only problem is how physically big it is, but that was my own stupidity, as I knew the space where I wanted it wasn't huge. So I have no reservations about recommending it.

Lots of boom for the buck
Crutchfield customer from Wayne, NJ on 12/6/2020
I bought this as a "scratch and dent" , but this is in perfect shape. I love klipsch speakers, and this sub is no exception. Very easy to hook up to my sonos amp that was also purchased from Crutchfield. I added this to give my B&W speakers a little boost; and oh my , does it ever. I have the gain set very low so as not to interfere with the music as you don't want the bass to overpower your listening experience. This klipsch sounds terrific , adding the extra punch to your music. And with 2 day shipping, I couldn't be happier. By the way , Crutchfield was voted the # one retailer on consumers reports ( I do not work for crutchfield ) just a happy customer.
Pros: Klipsch quality and sound
Cons: None that come to mind

Phenomenal!!!
Crutchfield customer from Flower Mound, TX on 12/2/2020
This powered sub by Klipsch is just what my 5.1 system was missing. I have a medium sized living room set up, and this sub is most definitely more than enough. It is hooked up through an Onkyo TX-NR686, paired up with Polk TAi400 front mains, a Polk CS10 center channel and Polk Atrium 5 surrounds. The Kilpsch sub will overpower the rest unless turned down. Be certain to secure any small items or picture frames that may rattle in use, or things may start jumping off of shelves. I highly recommend this sub. It makes movies come to life. Lightning on screen and explosions in a movie really come to life. Pop in your favorite movie and sit back with some popcorn and a few of your friends. No reason to ever leave the house to brave the theater again. Stream a flick and kick back in your comfy pjs!
Pros: Heavy bass you can feel in your soul. This thing seriously thumps, and you can dial in the settings to match your set up. Great addition to a surround set up and compliments your favorite music as well.
Cons: Might upset your wife if you crank it up too late! ??

How low can you go? 29 Hz!
Crutchfield customer from Harris, NY on 11/29/2020
Low notes are musical. Tried others and this Klipsch compares to subs costing hundreds more. A small green light on the front lets you know when it's active. No more searching in back to see if it's on! The light is small and is not intrusive, even in a dark home theatre.
Pros: front power light
Cons: none

Crutchfield customer from Maple City, MI on 11/28/2020
Crutchfield staff was once again extremely knowledgeable, professional & friendly. I made the purchase with total confidence. The R-120SW arrived in 2 days, as promised, in perfect condition. The setup was simple...ran the RCA cable from my Klipsch Fives, adjusted the settings as suggested, made a couple adjustments after listening to a variety of music & a movie....simple! The sub-woofer made a significant difference listening to music & movies alike. My Fives are in bookcases & are placed a little higher than I would have liked, but, I didn't have any other option. The sub balances the sound, making it seems more natural & easily fills a fairly large space...open floorplan including living room, kitchen, dining room & foyer! This sub could easily handle a larger space! Completely satisfied!
Pros: Powerful, well built
Cons: None

Great addition to my home theater
Richard from KANNAPOLIS, NC on 11/28/2020
This was a great addition to really boost my home theater system to a level I was looking for. TV shows and music all sound great and very natural. Action movies will rock the house and I love it!! It took me a couple of months to get it tuned in where it wasn't over bearing as it has a lot of power. I still occasionally have to tune it down a little bit as some movie tracks are a little much but easy enough to do. I have a Yamaha RX-V673 receiver and Polk Audio speakers and this Subwoofer paired seamlessly with them.
Pros: Easy to hook Great low end
Cons: None so far

Sublime!
Crutchfield customer from Lumberport, WV on 11/26/2020
My personal perspective is that this speaker fulfills my needs. It is the heartbeat of my Heresy iii speakers. I'm not an audiophile but I do appreciate good sound and the sub works just fine when properly set up and compliments the Heresy speakers really well. I deliberated between sealed or ported and have no regrets about my decision. I like the sub very much. My musical tastes run from Weather Report to Lucinda Williams and the sub does not disappoint.

Outstanding bass and quality for price
Crutchfield customer from Glen Ellyn, IL on 11/24/2020
Great subwoofer and hard to beat for the price. Not necessarily high on features but if you are looking to pump up bass on movies and have the open space room to accommodate big bass this is an excellent choice. Klipsch rarely disappoints and this is a nice compliment to any mid level system. I would not recommend for music in a small space, but if you are accustomed to big booming bass delivered in todays headphones and car audio, you will like the added depth in your music. Controls allow you to dial up and down output to what sounds good for you, but without automatic calibration in your system, it will take some playing with. Not a bad thing if you like to tweak your sound. Exceeded my expectation.

This was my first "open box" purchase from Crutchfield, and could not even tell if the sub had been removed from the plastic bag underneath the styrofoam packaging inserts. Comes with only the power cord; requires separate purchase of subwoofer cable.
Pros: Incredible sound, well built.
Cons: No subwoofer cable
