    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    Ok that makes sense. I guess I just wanted to make sure that this wasn’t symptomatic of an incorrect setting or something. Thanks!

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    Another observation… so when my kids watch tv since adding my sub, they listen at a volume (receiver volume) of around 20-25 Usually, and when it’s louder maybe 35. But, when I listen to music, at 20-25 I can barely hear anything, then at around 40 it’s decent volume, and then when I really...

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    I’m going to take a moment away from my questions to first say thank you to all of you for all the help with this. Second I just wanted to add that I am so glad I got this subwoofer. My music sounds so good. Many have advised me to go with other subs, many way out of my price range. And many...

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    My AVR remote has Bass +\- and treble +\- buttons. Does wiring the sub via LFE cause any signal/eq to bypass this setting or will it actually allow me to increase/decrease these attributes?

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    Yes using LFE, as for me thinking a lower setting for crossover, it’s not that I thought it would be good I’m just blindly trying random combinations. I literally do not know anything about how it works. No experience with crossover or gain or setting up systems. Nada. You could probably tell me...

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    What about the gain and low pass filter settings on the sub, how do those work?

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    OK the new 10 inch sub has arrived. I have run through the pioneer receiver set up and set my fronts to small which enables the subwoofer. I wasn’t really hearing anything at first, then I made a change to the crossover settings in the AVR set up. The default was 100 hz but wasn’t hearing much...

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    Some wireless adapters I am seeing are wifi, and some are Bluetooth. If I go wireless, my sub would only be at most 15-18 foot from the receiver. Does it matter if I go Bluetooth or wifi?

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    I’m just using “Dongle” as a general descriptor for an add-on component. I’m aware it’s not just a simple usb plug-in. I’ll check out Rocketfish and SVS. The Klipsch is $180 and more than I want to spend. Thanks for the input!

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    No, I don’t have any additional space, but it’s ok, I’m very happy with my atoms. And I ordered my 10 inch Klipsch sub today. Best deal was on Amazon/Adorama ($179) but won’t deliver until Friday. So will have to wait a bit. I think it will be a great addition, can’t wait. Does anyone have...

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    Yes we already had that talk. She isn’t saying no, she’s saying she does not like how big the 12 inch sub is in general and she doesn’t like it out in plain sight. So our compromise is me getting the 10 inch sub and either hiding it behind the ent center(which I do think it will fit) and/or...

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    I’m on the fence with WAF, I certainly wish my wife was more tolerant on these things or more engaged, but she just doesn’t share my love of music. With that said she is on board with a purchase but under certain conditions. So, it could be better and could be worse.

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    I took some measurements of the smaller Klipsch 10 inch sub and I think I can squeeze it behind my ent center and still have enough space for the port to clear 6-8 inches for breath ability. It’s good to know though that the AVR can compensate for wireless lag. On the topic of a standard depth...

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    So no issues with wireless lag? My bookshelves are hard wired. I would be very annoyed if the sub was out of sync with the bookshelves.

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    The svs is extremely beyond budget, and I’m not interested in having a wall install done either. As for the Jamo, it is interestingly thin and a good price. I have no knowledge of its performance. I know that slim subs have a much harder time creating bass with so little room for excursion. I...

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    I know you are serious and I appreciate the input. Personally I like the look of the sub, but I’ve always been an electronics/speaker hound. I personally feel like this Klipsch is a fine piece of furniture (not kidding). I love how it looks. BUT… the wife is not going to come around. Our...

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    I didn’t get back to troubleshooting last night, but intend to today. Once I reset the AVR to factory defaults and re-run the setup wizard it would have to resolve the issue. However, my wife threw me a curveball last night and I’m not sure what to do. After seeing “the big black box” She says...

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    Ok I found the microphone and ran the pioneer receiver speaker setup. it was all automatic and did not ask me to select what speakers I had, but one by one I heard the receiver play static and bass over all speakers individually, the two bookshelves, and the new subwoofer. So sound did come...

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    Thanks for the suggestion. I actually just had this thought as well. I know when I set it up the first time it came with a little microphone that you plugged in and then ran through a little audio feedback, sensing algorithm to kind of set some stuff up, so maybe when I ran at the first time it...

    Question about Klipsch subwoofers

    Ok so I got my new sub (Klipsch R-120SW) and I hooked it up to my receiver (pioneer VSX-819H) via the LFE port, and no matter what I put the gain on or the low pass filter on. I’m not getting any sound over the subwoofer. Confirming that it is plugged into power and the little green power light...
