positive recessions there are many, so I write about the things that should be thought necessary, before buying this woofers.
Delivery:
-----------------------------
as the sub was delivered before the front door, my friend was a bit different from what they had seen the size of carton. even after unpacking it changed nothing :-) remained pale.
Yes, at first I was beaming more, until I have tried to find a suitable place in the living room for this monster.
I had a Canton Sub 8, in which it was much easier :-).
So woofer only once for testing imposed on the well-known place to listen to what would change with the same line-up.
looked kind of funny, because the depth of about 65cm !!!, even when positioned near a wall, an enormous project into the room !!! (Did not look good in the living room :-()
first listening tests
------------------------------
So calibrated system and ...
... First was heard not so much. after some gimmick we went so halfway. the bass was really, as already written several times very clean! nice and dry without even ever nervous or even to roar ... and bass that I had not even suspected, were suddenly there .... wow .... so it should listen eingentlich, I thought ... ,
the next morning was further tested and it was sometimes a "little" louder :-). the floor was vibrating, the sofa also ... wow ... just something missing ... the PUNCH .. even after the change to the final position of these could not give woofer again. also put out everything that the Klipsch SW 115 very critical when it comes to drawing up was. He did not like any position, which had made immediately in sound cancellation and room modes noticeable.
the comparative test
----------------------------
think really I wanted to with the punch and the establishment just does not. So I have an acquaintance asked his Nubert aw 1000 borrow me for testing purposes.
the first thing noticed was that the housing of aw1000 was much better made. the Klipsch SW115 sounded hollow. ergo was determined to save the insulation which is also designed as a sound audible.
for behold, the PUNCH really existed in the selected song. some deep bass that the SW115 not wanted to portray really, were suddenly there again. only the truly abysmal vermochter the Nubert aw1000 not as nice as the Klipsch SW115 give back. Here the rocking sofa and the floor vibrierden missing.
summarized
----------------------------------
Those who already have a woofer and "only" sound more and draft wants, but is otherwise satisfied itself should look at the design of the "old" woofers exactly once.
because, the Klipsch has bassreflexöffung and the chassi on the front. when Nubert aw1000 is the bassreflexöffung on the back and on the front chassi. the Canton Sub 8 the bassreflexöffung is on the bottom of Subs (Downfire) and the chassi on the front. already only these three types have very different installation requirements or space. which the sub 8 my opinion was the most straightforward to the. the Klipsch SW115 on schwierigstens because the standing waves really very extreme impact here.
Also, we should begin to think about the task of woofers his thoughts. I wanted the Klipsch SW115 exclusively for listening to music.
My requirements were
- Extreme Draught (comes with music is not so often)
- And a rich punch to the solar plexus.
the punch, I can not confirm the draft already :-).
as bass support my front-LS (B & W Regallautsprecher) this was not suitable due to the lack of punches. However, those who already calls his great stand-LS and only bass support looking beyond 40Hz, is served really well with the SW115 !!!
ultimately, I have the Klipsch again returned and already made an appointment with the dealer clearly.
One thing I've learned who his own called an L-shaped living room, which have everything, but test everything and do not buy blind for reviews ... let alone subwoofer .....
