Review: Klipsch R-115SW | Sub With Hurricane Strength Klipsch R-115SW

 

For those of you who want the most bass for your money, this 15-inch air pump from Klipsch R-115SW is the way to go.

The R-115SW delivers phenomenal bass pressure over a very wide frequency range. Here you get a powerful subwoofer that pushes well all the way down to the subsonic frequencies you not only hear, but feel!

A potent sub like this also requires more work with placement and adjustment. The size and need for space will also be an obvious factor for many.

The R-115SW is physically larger and more space consuming than the other subwoofers in the test, but also kicks harder. The powerful 15-inch is able to move so much air that the bass becomes a physical experience: You can literally feel the pressure on...

I Own Two of These

 

These subs absolute animals! They deliver a deep, tight, filling base that others I've come across in the past could not. The room I have them in is rather large (15"x42" with 9' ceilings) and there is minimal dead spots in terms of bass. I don't...

worth triple it's weight with bass!!!

 

This subwoofer is a mega beast. Extremely melodic. For movies, you hear everything the producer intended. My wife and I own Two theater setups in our home; 5.1 and 7.1. There's a 12 inch subwoofer in the first one, a 15 inch in the 7.1 room. I...

Impressive Performance!

 

The subwoofer is connected to my rather extensive home theater system as an addition. I now have 2 15" powered subs and this unit really completes the package!

Great Value ; Impressive performance
