Description
The world’s finest theater operators choose Klipsch cinema systems because they deliver the full impact of the most intense action movie soundtracks without sacrificing musical definition. When designing the Klipsch THX-1200-SW subwoofer, Klipsch applied its theater experience to bring the same powerful, deep-driving bass to the comforts of home.

12-inch, long-throw Cerametallic™ driver
Front-firing port
Top-of-the-line internal wiring
THE THX-1200-SW IS A COMPACT, HIGH-OUTPUT, LOW-DISTORTION PASSIVE SUBWOOFER
It is suitable for use in any high-performance home-theater or music system. A pair of THX-1200-SW’s driven by a KA-1000-THX amplifier meet all requirements for THX Ultra2 certification. Although a single THX1200-SW does not satisfy the stringent THX Ultra2 maximum output specification, which assumes a very large room, it is more than adequate for a typical small or medium-sized room. Either configuration is capable of intense, powerful deep-bass reproduction, with no loss of clarity or detail at even the highest levels demanded by modern action-movie soundtracks. The cabinet is front-ported to maximize installation flexibility.
To achieve intense, deep-bass output in large rooms, this high-performance subwoofer that is part of the THX® family features a 12-inch, long-throw Cerametallic™ driver and front-firing port. It includes a 15 pound motor structure and a 20-foot Monster® THX Ultra cable with Neutrik Speakon® connectors. The subwoofer is driven by an external 1-kilowatt amplifier (KA-1000-THX) tailored to its characteristics for maximum output and reliability with extremely low distortion.
The subwoofer’s enclosure has the dado and rabbet construction used in Klipsch professional speakers for structural integrity.
Finished in Galaxy black with an aluminum fascia, the KW-120-THX also features top-of-the-line internal wiring to ensure that every roar or explosion is heard with complete clarity.
