Shekhar Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 I am trying to decide between a Klipsch Sub-12 and a R12SW. Any suggestions? The Sub-12 is higher in power and has a slightly better freq range compared to the R12SW. However, the R12SW is a newer model with new technology.

The History Kid Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 I'm not sure how "new" that technology is. Based upon what I've heard about the R-12SW and personally heard, I'd probably pick the Sub-12. What is your budget and where are you located?

Shekhar Posted November 26, 2017 Author Share Posted November 26, 2017 (edited) I am in the San Francisco Bay area. I can get the Sub-12 for 198/- and the R12SW for 225/- The Sub-12 is discontinued and is a 2004 model. The R12SW probably is about to be discontinued since Klipsch is offerring a discount and is a 2014 model. What the difference in the BASH amp and the Digital Amp?

The R-12SW is not likely to be discontinued any time soon. It should still have another 2-5 years of life left. BASH amps tend to offer more oomph, and generally have more power..... I was going to offer my RSW-10 (RSW/RT subs are some of the best Klipsch made) that I've been sitting on for a while now, but not sure it's in your price range if you're looking at $225 subs.

woralph Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Can't speak for R12SW, but I own a Sub-12 and I'm very satisfied with its performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
