What can I say about the Twelve? It does exactly what I expected it to do. Coupled with an Onkyo receiver and NHT Classic Zero bookshelf speakers for L and R, music listening is pure joy. Low bass lines don't come and go like I've heard with lesser subs. They come out even and smooth, and always musical. And the 27 Hz. response ensures that movie effects will rattle your cage as needed. Note that it's 27 Hz. at -3dB, not -10dB or "unspecified" like with some. I'm sure the 27 could have been lower if NHT wanted to get weanie with the numbers - they deserve credit for being straight up about it. I'm sure the Classic Ten would suffice for most situations, but there are times (usually during movies) when the Twelve moves enough air that I'm happy I got the extra size and wattage. (It scares the pets, so that's a good sign, right? Heh heh.)

I'm replacing an old SWP-1 that I bought many years ago with my SuperZeros. The SWP-1 still works ok at lower volume but my kids kicked in the driver so deep bass breaks up at higher volume. I used this as an opportunity to upgrade.

The N-12B literally ROCKS the house. Spool up Transformers Blu-Ray and watch the downtown battle scene at the end and you'll see what I mean. Smooth and mellow until the low-lows come in then it shakes the walls. It took a little tuning to get it set right but now it blends in very nicely with the SuperZeros. Sounds great with bassy music too. Try some Kanye.

Also, great price, fast delivery, no complaints.

Highly recommended. OH YEAH!
