Thanks for the post, picking one up to pair with an RSL speedwoofer 12. Hard to beat at $529!

I've used both. The RSL is a much better sub.

Curious, in what ways?

Is the 1200 RP line much better than the 120swi previously posted a few weeks ago? It certainly weighs twice as much but isn't the frequencies range near the same on both units. I also wouldn't drive these to anywhere near max so is the 800W unnecessary as well?
R-120swi was only $150 for reference was a Costco deal. Easy return policy.
Just wondering if it was be substantial upgrade and worth it.

I have the RP-1600sw (for comparison) and the subwoofer had horrible chuffing at low hz (35 and under), I also have a OSD Trevoce 15" sub with dual passive radiators, the 15" sub hits harder, sounds better, is like 1/2 the size overall, and is cheaper. I think Klipsch kind of dropped the ball on on these subs, which is why they are going for so cheap.
For reference, i have the entire reference premier tower speaker lineup for my home theater.

My 1600sw doesn't have that problem and sounds awesome, maybe check your connections?

It's not even close. I have the Costco R-120swi hooked up to my computer with a pair of edifiers, and a 1200rp hooked up in my living room with a set of the Fives.
The 1200rp hits WAY harder, goes way lower, and has a much cleaner sound. The difference is night and day.
Going into the purchase I was fully set on being disappointed by the 1200rp, but it just hasn't been the case.
The only downside is that the 1200rp is huge. It's considerably longer than the r-120swi.

this has to be a unique situation you had. I'm running a pair of them and neither have the chuffing. Also no way the OSD out performs it. tuning is way too high on the sub.

Yes this or the RSL 10S are substantially better than the Costco sub.
