RoboKlipsch Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 With subs the room becomes important, it helps define what you will need. Also of course your preferences, are you only watching movies or a good deal of music? A bit more information helps to make this determination. You have some excellent, high end stuff. I personally don't think the regular reference series cuts it for those. WIthin the Klipsch line you would want the higher end ones, the R112SW for example....but again share a bit more and you'll get a better answer. WIthout the extra info it just becomes what people like, without much consideration for your room or needs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronB123 Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 I agree I would look into the R-112 or even the R-115. To be honest you can find the R-115 for pretty much the same price you mentioned if you look around. eBay has them brand new lots of times for 600-650 from very reputable sellers like Onecall and others. Also, check with @MetropolisLakeOutfitters and see what kind of deal he can get you. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TechyMike Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 I just bought a new Synergy Sub 12 for $219, no tax and free shipping from an authorized dealer. Buydig on eBay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Damerval Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I have the R-110SW and it performs flawlessly with my RF -82II'S, R -250C, RS -52II all Reference series. I kind of wish I would have spent the extra $100 to $150 for the R-112SW or R-115SW but 110 is fine until I can afford another.I do have 1 question for you guys. Would it sound okay to add a 112 or 115 to work along side the 110 or would that offset 1 side to much to were it would really stick out like I think it would?

ACV92 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 There's a ton of articles online regarding second, third, or fourth subs. Some members here have eight of them in a room. If your not into EQ'ing, figuring out room modes, cancellation effects, etc., a general consensus in the material that I've read, says that adding a second sub of the same type is the safest/easiest method to get the best sound. A second powered sub of the same type will yield a 3 - 4 db gain if set apart from each other, like in the front corners of your room, or 6 db gain if you stack one on top of the other. Adding a second sub will help to fill deficiencies in room acoustics that hinder a single sub source. So, I would buy another sub of the same type for the easiest transition. I'm definitely not the most educated person on this forum as I'm sure others will chime in and help. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Adding a second sub can give you less output at the seated position as well. If you add anything other than co-locating a second sub you need to take some time, take some measurements and set it up correctly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Damerval Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Thanks guy's, that reaffirms everything I have read so far so I'll be adding another soon! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G928A using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
