Scrappydue Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 (edited) I have one of these gems and really wanting a second one for my den if anyone has one and wants to sell. Thanks, Neal man i just did a nation wide search for one of these. not a single one anywhere. good luck EDIT: one in france LOL EDIT AGAIN: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Enceinte-Caisson-de-basses-Klipsch-Icon-XW-500d-Powered-Subwoofer-Black-500-Wat-/201354218398?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_71&hash=item2ee1a58b9e looks like he will ship to us. seems like a low enough price for a rare sub you are seeking. not sure what shipping would cost from there to the us though.

The History Kid Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 There was one in Texas going for $150 shipped back in August. I was going to get it for my dorm before my plans changed. It wasn't advertised as the XW-500D, just as a "Klipsch Sub". They're out there...count on it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willland Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Groomlakearea51 had one of the baby brother XW-300d accompanying a pair of Khorns, pair of pro HII's, and a center Belle in his "Wall of Voodoo" and it was amazing what that little 8" sub could do. I am sure the XW-500d sounds even better. Good luck with your search, Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - I saw that one in France too! I never realized how extremely rare a find this speaker is until I wanted another one. For good reason too! This speaker comes in a tiny package and rivals my Velodyne DD-15 in a 25x32 ft room! I feel fortunate to have found the one I have on craigslist 4 years ago for merely $225!

This is similar to how I found one advertised 4 years ago, the guy really didn't know what he had and he told me his wife wanted him to sell it because it was "too loud" , LOL!

The apparent replacement is the sw-311 in terms of size/specs/sealed sound but its much more expensive and in comparison seems to have a lot of extra unnecessary hardware ( two additional passive woofers - and with no protective covers!)

willland Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Neal, I think we found one. https://community.klipsch.com/index.php?/topic/157809-klipsch-xw-500d-subwoofer-and-home-theater-system/#entry1890209 Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CopperCone Posted July 3, 2015 Author Share Posted July 3, 2015 Hi Guys, Thanks for all the feedback. Through an extremely fortuitous local craigslist ad, which I acted on immediately, I ended up scoring two of the similarly RARE little brother xw-300d subs for only $250 today! One is Mint condition and the other only has a slight ding in the Vinyl in back corner. I'm a very happy customer!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
