Just crap.

After 3-4 years the amplifier just stop working. Do not ever buy a Klipsh product, it is crap, it does not matter how it sounds when it stop working. Buy some really cheap china stuff instead, that is more reliable.

Longevity

Warranty is 2 years. Two years and 11 months later. The sub started making a heartbeat sound. The amp was shot. However, the folks at Klipsch stand behind their product. The sent be a new board at no charge and I got in 3 days. Outstanding!!

Great little subwoofer

I am surprised how powerful the bass from this 12". The free port in the bottom helps, and the extra power 300w RMS makes it a step above the others.

Defekt nach 2 Jahren

Ich hatte 2 Jahre wirklich guten Sound. Pünktlich nach Ablauf der Garantiezeit, jedoch direkt defekt gegangen. Jetzt klopft er nur noch. Die Endstufe besteht zudem 50% aus Klebstoff. Soviel zum Thema Referenzhersteller...

Shake your walls!

I was a little reluctant to get this sub. My original was a 600 RMS sub of a different name brand from 20 years ago. It finally moved on to speaker heaven, so I figured I?d see if this would live up to the task. Boy what a nice surprise! Not only does it keep up with my system, it exceeds my expectations! Sounds better than my old one, less boomy and more precise! Really does make the walls shake. My wife now complains every time we watch TV! What a great sub! Get it, and your neighbors will know!

Absolutely Blown Away

I have been updating all my speakers for my Home Theater and the SPL-120 was the last upgrade. My Denon ARV has the capacity for two subs, so I got two SPL-120s. After setting up and tweaking the crossovers for my setup. I played some of my favorite movies. I am absolutely blown away on the bottom end of the sound I was receiving even at low volumes. The bomb burst, the low end music tracks, etc. I am so happy I got these beauties.

Poor Quality

I have gone through two Amps now. The quality is very poor. I was very pleased that I was sent a new Amp after the first failure. After a month of light use... another failure. Very disappointing, as the rest of my setup is Klipsch and works flawlessly. I would not recommend purchasing the sub, look at other brands to pair with your setup.

Great sound and performance.

Great performance and sound. It will be better if the previous one had lasted more than 3 years. The amp went out. Fingers crossed on this one.

My neighbors have noticed!

I just received my SPL-120 and all I can say is wow! Thunderous base and crisp thumps. It pairs VERY well with the RP-8000F IIs and the RP-504C. My wife was so impressed that she had me order a second one for the other side of the room.

Replacement Sub

Fantastic Sub. My last Klipsch Sub lasted 20 years! I thought it was great, but this one is crazy good! Very very smooth accurate bass. It's Ported to the front - so when something explodes on TV, you get a woosh of air from the port (my sub is located front and center aimed directly at me). Kinda weird, but kinda cool.

Dual Spl-12

I purchased 2 of these subs from Best Buy Christmas of 2021. So far, these subs hold up well and initially, sound decent. After the novelty wore off, these subs are very boomy with decent low bass output and leaves me with looking for more. Of you are serious about your home theater setup, I recommend either Monolith, REL or SVS as these subwoofer variants performance are earth shattering! The AVR I am using is the Denon x6700.

NICE!!

Great sounding powered and powerful subwoofer. Just not quite my 10" 450 watt down-fire I used to have.

Good But Not Outstanding

I recommend the SPL-120 if you?re looking to match other Reference Premier speakers. I have the RP500C, RP600M?s for my main front speakers, and RP500Ms for my rear surround and the SPL-120. Very stunning to the eyes for a 5.1 entry level. However, if you?re a fan of bass and looking for subsonic LFE then you?ll need look elsewhere.The SPL-120?s bass is good but it needs to be deeper and more refined. It?s a bit underwhelming. Majority of the time the fit and finish of Klipsch speakers is high quality, but my SPL-120 has visible dried glue on one of the port seams that was not wiped off or sanded down during manufacturing.

About Klipsch SPL-120

The SPL-120 subwoofer is a step up from the Klipsch Reference series. Featuring a high-efficiency Class-D amplifier and spun copper Cerametallic woofer, the Klipsch SPL series subwoofers deliver best-in-class low-frequency output.

High Efficiency Class D Amplifier
The built-in, high efficiency amplifier features an analog preamp design, which maintains the original signal path for cleaner, true-to-source reproduction. The Class D output stage ensures maximum efficiency for maximum output, detail, and low frequency power.

Spun Copper Cerametallic Woofers
Cerametallic woofers are exceptionally light and extremely rigid, providing remarkable low frequency response with minimal cone breakup and distortion for higher, cleaner output using less amplifier power.

Woofer Anatomy
Klipsch Cerametallic cones are matted to a dual-layer, copper-wound voice coil for exceptional conductivity.

Reference Premiere woofers are housed in a non-resonating, stamped-steel basket that's secured to a large magnet motor for exceptional efficiency and low distortion, and matched to our horn-loaded tweeters for optimal acoustic execution.

Exclusive Port Technology
Klipsch SPL subwoofers leverage proprietary internal-flare geometry that minimizes port noise for clean undistorted low frequencies. The front-firing design allows for placement flexibility to reduce unwanted resonance from your walls or furniture behind the subwoofer.

Take Control
Low Pass Crossover and Variable Phase control allows you to tune the subwoofer to your Klipsch speakers and to your room, establishing the ideal level of bass. Line Level / LFE RCA inputs ensure compatibility with home theater receivers.

Both the RCA and wireless inputs can be utilized, giving you the ability to use a single subwoofer with multiple system in the same room. For example, you can use the wireless input for your home theater set up and the RCA input for your 2-channel system, without needing to switch inputs when changing between systems.

Ultra-Durable Design
Klipsch SPL subwoofers feature a scratch-resistant ebony finish that looks like real wood and covers the entire cabinet. Shock-absorbing rubber feet, steel grille posts, and a woven cloth grille give the SPL subwoofers a premium look and feel.
