Amp is known to quit...
on December 28, 2023
Posted by: nateshirk
I have owned this R112SW for roughly 3 years. Yes, it sounds great, but.....after having issues and searching the internet for a soliton, it seems like the amp on these doesn't like it's job and eventually quits.

Every time you turn it up to where it actually sound good it turns off.

Like someone else said once you turn up the gain where it sounds good it cuts off…shouldn’t happen with such a high end subwoofer

Pulsing sound when off

Bought in late August '19. Used somewhat regularly but not abused. Worked perfectly up until today. Without the TV/receiver being on, the sub was making the common pulse/heartbeat noise on it's own. Currently looking for a different brand now as I thought Klipsch made great products.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Wimpy
on September 22, 2024
Posted by: The Projectordude
Sorta wimpy not musical at all .these are long discontinued and have had few them go through my home theater business over the years and I guess the customers like them .I couldn't deal with the boomy under powered bass. I have Crown power bass amp pushing 1005 watts per side in parallel mono driving 2 12 JBLs in a single Ampeg cabinet ported at 40HZ so the bar is set high but really don't like any klipsch subs
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
