Brand: Klipsch

#45 Klipsch R-10SW: $399 Discontinued eBay

Newer model: the Klipsch Reference R-101SW, estimated 3.2/5, released 2022. See every Klipsch Reference subwoofers generation.

Same family: the Klipsch R-12SW (larger subwoofer, rated 3.3/5) and the Klipsch R-115SW (larger subwoofer, rated 4.2/5).

Pros: A discontinued ported 10 inch subwoofer that adds midbass support to a modest system at a moderate price. Independent CEA-2010 testing records 106.8 dB through 40-80 Hz. The ported, rear enclosure with 10” (254mm) driver is a compact way to add useful midbass support to a modest system.

Cons: Without a published 20 Hz result, deep-bass capability is less certain than the midbass figure. The 355.6H x 317.5W x 398.8D mm cabinet and 11.6 kg mass still need careful placement and calibration. Discontinued.
