Sound Quality on the KSW 12

[RJNB]

I just received my KSW 12 today, and was extremely excited to hook it up, until I heard the odd popping sound whenever the woofer hits. I've tried all music ranging from Classical, to Hip Hop, to Alternative and it still maintains a pop every time the woofer extends. I've found that when I position the subwoofer so that it faces upward that the pop tends to virtually disappear, but this is what I hope is a temporary option. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've had my KSW-12 since May. I had an unrelated problem and returned the sub to my dealer. He exchanged it on the spot and I've had no more problems. I'd suggest you do the same.

Thanks for the advice, I think that is the route I'm going to pursue.

Thanks,

I have the Klipsch KSW12,its a good inexpensive sub.And it has no problems even at high volumes,only when pushed to very high levels does it begin to lose control.

I even treated the woofer sourround with mink oil!This way the sourround will not crack with time as fast.

I also got the KSW15,great sub for the price(got a real deal).Both are recomended

The sub you have must have a driver problem.The place where you purchased the sub must exchange the defective unit.
