Review: Dopo circa 20 giorni di utilizzo e rodaggio, posso scrivere la recensione di questo subwoofer Klipsch R8-SW. Molto compatto e facile da posizionare e installare negli ambienti La spedizione è stata velocissima e il pacco era molto bene imballato (sintomo di serietà da parte del venditore). Il sub arricchisce molto il suono, riempiendo con sostanza le basse frequenze. Era proprio quel che cercavo per il mio impianto HiFi (composto da due casse a torre). Consigliato!
Review: I had a 20 year old subwoofer that I thought was "good enough" because I thought my hearing was going anyway. This subwoofer with the matching Bookshelf speakers BLOWS ME AWAY. The clarity is amazing even on ultralow bass notes while what I thought was hearing loss abruptly vanished. Midranges are crisp and undistorted and I can barely crank the sub up past 1 on the knob without it actually becoming visceral enough to vibrate a solid concrete high rise apartment. Once you find the right EQ and Levels these speakers outperform anything else I've ever owned.
