YK Thom Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Which is the smallest sub Klipsch makes? I have an old KSW-10 that I enjoy but it seems to be getting a little erratic when on auto (fine when just turned on). We have terrible power here and are prone to frequent brown outs, failures and surges - chances are likely this may be the cause. If this is sign of end times I'd like to replace it with an even smaller footprint. I see KEF has announced a new sub which is quite small, however I would like to stick with a Klipsch product. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billybob Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 There is an rw8 possibly not certain now, older Sw8. The sub that comes with Promedia is a 6... others will know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tubetwister Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 The K-100SW is pretty small. I have this in a secondary audio system. A decent sub at an incredible price. Paid $139 at Newegg. https://www.cnet.com/products/klipsch-k-100sw-subwoofer/ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter P. Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 The R8SW appears to be the smallest. But it only goes down to 38Hz, so I hardly consider it a true subwoofer. If home theater is your thing, you might want to avoid this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end I may be SOL when it comes to a sub that takes less floor space. Chances are this will be the one should/when my current one buys the farm. We live on the 10th floor of a condo tower so earth shattering, wall shaking bass is not what I'm after. Just a little controlled bottom end for TV and the ever diminishing number of movies we watch. I'll be glad when the comic book movie fad is over. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YK Thom Posted January 25, 2021 Author Share Posted January 25, 2021 Power/surge bars. We still get a lot of sudden power outs which is hard on everything. This winter has been better than most years though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ceptorman Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 What about a tube style sub? SVS PC-2000 Pro? 16.5" diameter with a 12" sub, 550 watts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
