toddvj Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 Overkill? What's that? Seriously, no, that would not be overkill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrWho Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 Seriously though, when it comes to subs there is no such thing as overkill. At the very least you can just turn down the volume on the sub, but as my sig says: there's no replacement for displacement. Bigger subs are by nature lower distortion designs so that alone is reason enough in my book for going with the bigger one (especially if you can afford it). Heck, I would even recommend going with the RW-15. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lb19984 Posted July 6, 2005 Author Share Posted July 6, 2005 well an rsw-15 is a little overprised for me okay I'll go with the rw-12 thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndyKlipschFan Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 The RW will be a great sub in your application. You might also consider the new Synergy sub too. Also a 12" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lb19984 Posted July 7, 2005 Author Share Posted July 7, 2005 i thought the new synergy sub was worse than the refrence sub.... but a lil cheaper right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndyKlipschFan Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 "worse" is a strong word.. We heard the new synergy system at the Klipsch weekend. The sub rocked!! I do not know if this is the new one in stores yet too. If not, wait till you hear it! In theory, yes, the reference should beat synergy but your also talking about a reference 10" reference vs a 12" synergy that IMO was really improved and not to be overlooked. Your NOT running a big Ref 7 system so a need for a Ref 15" is not necessary here. Just trying to help you out and offer a suggestion is all. And yes, you might save some $$ too!

lb19984 Posted July 7, 2005 Author Share Posted July 7, 2005 i have another question i just saw the rw-10 in silver And i really like the silver color and i know they dont have the rw-12 in silver so the revised question will be will the rw-10 be a lil underpowering? I currently have my speakers hooked up to a klipsch ultra sub (dual firring 8" inchers) and its not enough for me or does anyone know if a silver rw-12 will be released? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lb19984 Posted July 7, 2005 Author Share Posted July 7, 2005 or should i wait for the new line of klipsch subs? if they are in the same price range as the rw-12 and availible in silver? assuming that you would know..... :-p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
