CECAA850 Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 I would prefer to stay with Klipsch, but what alternatives do I have? Seriously? There are many very good sub manufacterers out there. You just need to settle on a price point as well as intended use and asthetics and look around. Don't discount the internet direct companies either.

Thaddeus Smith Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 I had the rw-12 for about 3 years ..loved it (probably should have kept it). i would highly recommend you get it. but there are also alternatives that may possibly be had for the same or less. give elemental designs a look through.

laager Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 ...I am interested in either the RW10D, or RW12D, or one of the Veoldyne DLS4000R/DLS5000R. Any of the DLS series Velodynes quoted will eat up any Klipsch sub for breakfast and ask for more. There's really no comparison in what you're asking.

forum_crawler Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I am very new at this, so I wasn't too sure about subs, etc. My friend has a Velodyne CT-12 I believe, and I didn't know this until I asked him this weekend. What I did know is that back when he got it, I couldn't believe the power that sub had, I was floored. I did go to my local futureshop to listen to some subs, and both the DLS4000R/5000R were fantastic sounding. I couldn't compare them to the Klipsch since it was not hooked up and at the time I was looking to get the center channel speaker (RC-62). But I am starting to think that the DLS4000R might be enough for my purposes, though that 5000R made the whole room shake! he he Would that DLS5000R be too much for my setup? RF-82/RC-62 and the rears still to be determined... Thank you guys for your good responses and suggestions. I have so much to learn! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
