5.0 out of 5 stars Ideal Addition To Your Home Entertainment System, October 15, 2009

This review is from: Klipsch RW-10D-BK 10" Powered Subwoofer (Personal Computers)

I purchased this subwoofer to replace my Pioneer 200 watt 12" subwoofer which has seen its better days. I can say I am completely satisfied with the way the RW-10d performs in conjunction with with my Denon AVR-1906 receiver and Klipsh surround speakers and Bose center speaker. It adds depth, without distortion, to both my theater and music experience. Whether I am watching a drama with low volume deep tones, like a car engine or a fast action movie with the rumble of jet engines and bombs exploding, with enough kick to feel the action, it gives one the feeling of being there. As for music, I like everything from soft jazz to classic rock. The RW-10d adds enough bass to give a realistic live performance sound experience. My past experience with subwoofers is that no one volume setting works for all applications. The handy LED adjustment on the top of the speaker cabinet make this easy with the touch of a couple buttons. I wasn't sure how I would like the vertical mounted speaker. For years most speaker manufactures subscribed to the down firing subs, but I find this arrangement much more suited for home use were sensitivity is more important than a deep hard thump of hip hop. I have now incorporated my old 200W Pioneer with a replacement speaker in my DJ business system and I get just that kick I need for heavy dance music. As for the Klipsh RW-10d the only con I can think of is the need to get out of my recliner to make an adjustment for music or theater listening. A remote would have been nice, even if it added another $20 or $30 to the price. If you want good clean sound, as Klipsh is known for, I highly recommend you add this to your system.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Bass, Especially for the $$$, December 30, 2010

The Klipsch RW10D is a great subwoofer. I purchased this to replace a $1200 Velodyne subwoofer that had to be repaired multiple times and I simply gave up on it. This was the best decision I could have made. The RW10D cost a lot less money but performs as good if not better than my Velodyne did. The bass is accurate. The explosions sound like an explosion. It has no problem going really loud when I want it to. I was watching Jurassic Park the other night (I know an oldie, but goodie) and the part where the T-Rex is first introduced sounded fantastic! The RW10D really brought the movie to life.
