Capturing all the sonic excitement of low-frequency effects, the Reference Series RW-12d Digitally Controlled Subwoofer (DCS) delivers rock-solid performances. With its class-leading technology and superior design, this hard-hitter perfectly rounds out a home theater or two-channel stereo music system.

The RW-12d shakes things up by employing a 12-inch front-firing Cerametallic woofer and a 340-watt RMS amplifier. Exclusive Corner Port Technology allows the subwoofer's port tube to be as long as possible without bending, minimizing turbulence that can cause port noise and distortion. It also allows the enclosure to be tuned to a lower frequency than would otherwise be possible to create deeper bass from a smaller cabinet. Another important element is a corner-shaped flange at the port's internal opening, which amplifies the benefits of a longer port.

For quick and easy adjustment of all functions, the RW-12d features the DCS digital user-interface that includes three equalization modes (flat, depth and punch) and three user-adjustable presets (music, movie and night) to create specific listening preferences. Available in a black woodgrain vinyl finish, this extraordinary subwoofer also comes with an IR sensor for operation with select learning remotes or control systems.

  • newegg Impressive Bass The Klipsch RW-12d boasts a 12" front-firing Cerametallic woofer to deliver deep, accurate and tight bass, making your movies and music more realistic.
  • newegg High Dynamic Power Capable of handling 825W dynamic power, the Klipsch RW-12d subwoofer delivers top-notch bass sound, making it an ideal match for your speaker system.
  • newegg Corner Port Technology Powered by the exclusive Corner Port technology, the subwoofer's port tube could be as long as possible without bending, resulting in minimized turbulence that can cause port noise and distortion for a more pure, clear sound.

5 out of 5 eggsGreat Subwoofer

Pros: This subwoofer performed with great precision in both venues of music and home theater. It gives me seamless integration with music, plus intense sound effects with movies (Real Steel). I have it connected with a subwoofer cable (3 ft from a corner) to my Yahama R-S500. My speakers are JBL L830's. The volume is set at -20dB.

Cons: The outer box had a puncture and huge tear about 2.5 ft long. The inner box was intact though. I tried to get the IR codes from Klipsch. They sent them to me in a zipped file (from 2006) which I can't open. I got a good price, which then promptly dropped $30.

Other Thoughts: Initially I did have some booming when connected w/speaker terminals (5 ft from a corner).

5 out of 5 eggsAwesome sub!!!

Pros: Great price. Fast shipping

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: Completely disregard all previous reviews of damaged subs. Newegg has resolved this issue. It was packaged extremely well and was received in 100% mint condition. Very happy with purchase and quality of sub. For the price I am convinced I couldn't have made a better purchase.

4 out of 5 eggsSatisfied

Pros: Even though this is a discontinued model it's nice to see they repackaged these things to prevent the damage that was occurring on a very high percentage of these that shipped out, including mine. Performance is fine. Not blown away but satisfied.

Cons: There was a big hole in the side of the box and you could see the black painted side of the sub-woofer. Surprisingly there was just a small scratch so I thought I was in the clear since there were no other signs of damage to the box. I was wrong. The front grille had two broken pegs and the top front had 2 chips on the black wood surface. Too much work to return so I glued the chipped wood back(couldn't get it perfect so it's still noticeable if you look close). I haven't fixed the grille pegs yet but having two secure ones on top keeps it secure enough...besides I can just put in some velcro to replace the bottom pegs.

Other Thoughts: Don't underestimate the size of this thing. It is huge so do your measurements carefully.

5 out of 5 eggsNice upgrade

Pros: Can select "style" of sound
Huge amounts of power
Great depth
Well packaged and easy to set up - did not experience the shipping problems others noted.
I replaced my 10" Polk sub with this and am very impressed in the better performance.

Cons: None found yet

Other Thoughts: Scrolling through the menus is one way, when it hits the top of the menu you don't know it --- I contacted Klipsch service thinking the function wasn't working...I did not think to try the other arrow. My bad, but with a simple software change, it would improve ease of use.

3 out of 5 eggsGood

Pros: Good sub for 300 dollars, deep bass.

Cons: There are better subs out there, this sub is only 49 pounds, because they use only .75 inch multiy density fiber board, resulting in a boomy, muffled sound.

Other Thoughts: Bottom line is that this is not an audiophile subwoofer.
But great for a beginner and for movies.

5 out of 5 eggsmakes me giggle

Pros: this thing makes me giggle like a 10 year old school girl. I tested out a couple of 500 dollar subs in best buy and this klipsch for 300 bucks takes the cake.

Cons: grill came broken just like everyone else, going to contact klipsch to request a replacement
