from Klaap Audio Visual Summary:
Purchased this sub a week ago after having to return my B&W ASW 675 because of woofer problems. Set up was pretty easy running a single rca lead from my reciever to Y-adapter to the sub, which in turn gives you extra 3-6db more, so volume on sub is set at 9'oclock and frequency at 80Hz which i think is in the middle of the dial since there is no numbers to indicate that. Listening to a various music such as R&B,Jazz,Dance and other sorts this sub is really musical. Pounds hard with little or any distortion. I run this sub with a pair of Bookshelf B&W 602's and they blend in just fine. Don't listen about what types of main speakers you have and that this sub will be a overkill, its all in the matter of tuning! Because any subwoofer can overpower your main speakers. I also auditioned prior to buying this sub an M&K MX350THX Mk11 but i still felt the Klipsch had the edge over it and the Klipsch was much more musical plus the M&K was $1070AU more than the Klipsch. If you are looking for sub that does both music and movies with giving you a hard slam everytime it pounds than look no further than the RSW-12 great looks great sound what else could you ask for! Strengths:
Powerful tight deep Bass slams hard! Weaknesses:
Manual could be more detailed with pics on how to set up sub for first time subwoofer owners. Also frequency numbers on the dial could be added more instesd of going from (eg) 70Hz then skipping straight to 100Hz (where is 80 and 90Hz) Similar Products Used:
M&K MX 150THX Mk11, B&W ASW 650, B&W ASW 675
