Real happy with my new Klipsch HT system, but a little worried about my sub?

Since I upgraded to La Scala IIs for my combo music & home theater system, it was clear an upgrade from my RP-250C and SVS SB-2000 sub was in order. I've finally got the new RP-450C and RP-115W dialed in with Anthem Room Correction (using both the SVS and 115SW as dual subs) and the whole rig sounds amazing.

 

But over the past couple of days I have been reading horror stories about Klipsch subs, and that the amps are going out on these 115Ws after about a year or so. Is this really a widespread issue or just a matter of a vocal few on the internet who have been experiencing issues?

It’s an issue. However keep in mind A LOT of these are sold. So easy to read lots of stories vs another product that might have less “issues” but sell 1/2 the amount. Hope that makes sense.
