Overview
Klipsch pairs its powered subwoofer with a center channel speaker so a theater build gets bass and dialogue in one order. The sub plugs into a receiver's LFE or line level output and has its own amplifier, with a grille included.
A large copper cone and a built in amplifier add deep low end that bookshelf or TV speakers cannot reach. The listing gives the center speaker two different model names, so check the model before ordering.
Who it's for
Living rooms and theater rooms anchored by a receiver with an LFE output. Soundbar owners or people without a receiver cannot connect it in a useful way.
Pros and cons
- Large front firing woofer
- Built in digital amplifier
- Phase and low-pass controls
- Center speaker included
- Center model name inconsistent in listing
- Wired RCA only
- Heavy and bulky cabinet
- Receiver required, not included
Performance notes
Bass depth comes from the large woofer and the dedicated amplifier, and room placement changes output a lot, with corners adding weight. The low-pass and phase controls let you blend the sub with your main speakers so bass does not boom or cancel. Clean results depend on setting the receiver crossover to match.
