One is an SW-12 and the other is a SW-12II, both are oak ! They are my first experience with subs and 2-channel. I am new to tubes and vinyl and neither seems to have the bass I was used to with SS. The subs sound pretty good for old subs but I can learn from them.

Very nice matching subs! I repaired an SW-12, then gave it to my brother for his B-Day. I know the newer Klipsch subs deliver more wattage and punch, but I thought the SW-12 sounded awesome.

It's unusual for the Scott not to have adequate bass.

I've seen some tubes without a good lower end. Rolling may just cure that

Hey Michael,I hope your are VERY wrong with your 5 year prediction, not such a "warm, fuzzy feeling" around here right now.

With my 2 youngest daughters working their way through university right now, I figured I should scale back a bit right now.
I have really enjoyed the KHorns for the last 3 years since buying them from Claude, and I am hopeful that I will have another pair
in a couple of years... or better yet a pair of Jubilees.
