## Description

The Klipsch Reference Premiere RP-1200SW, 12-Inch High-Excursion subwoofer is one of the best, loudest, and most efficient home theater subwoofers on the market.

Review: Wow! What a subwoofer! - It's large. Much larger than expected. A little too big for my small room to keep in the open, so we opted to place it behind the projector screen (120") and face it parallel to where we sit. No problems with the sound what-so-ever. Playing Jazz sounds amazing as we are hearing and feeling like there is a stand up bassist in the room. Rock music is confident and bass drum driving. R&B music you can feel in your chest. Electronic Dance Music melts you away. Watching movies on the dedicated LFE (Low Frequencies Effect) shook the house with a gain setting of 6.5. It scared the daylights out of my Wife...good times! The subwoofer is paired up with a set of Polk Reserve R100. At first, I didn't realize how good this base was until I compared it to the subs my local Best Buy had. I purchased a DN10 (wanted to try the DN12, but not available in my area), SVS SB-3000, and this sub to my ear outperformed all of them, easily. Even the higher end Subs like Bowers & Wilkins, KEF, etc., didn't come close based for my subjective hearing. Long story short, we're running this through a Marantz 70s and wow, we are impressed; It seems to be a great all around sub, extremely well done with a massive foot print compared to most subs.
Review: earthquake! - PLENTY of power even at half power level on the gain adjustment. AWESOME product, and affordable! I highly recommend this POWERED subwoofer for anyone wanting high quality audio on a low budget.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This sub shakes my entire house!
*by J***S on December 6, 2025*

I was torn between getting the 12" or the 14" sub. I finally settled on the 12, and I figured I could add another eventually when I move into a bigger place. I'm glad I went with the 12", it's huge! The 14" would have been too big. And as I found out, it would not be necessary. After I installed it, I thought it was defective at first because I wasn't hearing it with Spotify on my PC, which caused me to turn it all the way up. I then decided to test it out with a T. rex scene from Jurassic Park and forgot to turn it back down lol. It startled the crap out of me and had me scrambling for the volume. It was the type of bass you can feel in your chest. Coming from a 15-year-old 8" Monoprice sub, I was floored. I'm no audiophile or subwoofer snob, but to me, the bass sounds clean and powerful. My living room is roughly 15'x20', with 12' ceilings and only a half wall between the kitchen. This sub fills that space and then some. While the movie was still playing, and the sub was now turned down to 7, I could easily hear it outside in my shed. I'll need to be careful with it at night because the neighbors will definitely hear it. Shipping was a bit tricky for me. I travel most weeks for work, and I was given a 4-day delivery window, which landed on a Friday. I wasn't worried about it sitting on my covered porch because I have a privacy fence around it, I have a camera, and I live in a sort of rural area. When I checked the tracker with UPS I noticed it said signature required. I attempted to pre-sign for it, but it still said signature required the next day. I tried changing the delivery to Saturday, but was unable to. After calling UPS, I was told the seller, ListenUp, opted not to allow pre-signing or changing the delivery dates, and that I would need to contact them to change it. I contacted ListenUp about this, but I was told they were unable to change it because it had shipped, which isn't true according to UPS; they can change it while it's in route. After I told them this, I only received a generic response basically saying we're too busy to give you a real response (I get it, it's the week after Black Friday). I arrived home yesterday, and was pleasantly surprised to find it sitting at my door. Either ListenUp figured out how to change it, or the UPS driver said to hell with loading this thing back up lol.
