Big Bass Response with Movies, Music, and More
The Klipsch SPL-120 boasts a 12" spun copper Cerametallic™ woofer and high-efficiency 300/600-watt Class-D amplifier for big bass response with movies, music, and more. It occupies the middle slot in the Klipsch SPL Series, which is a step up from the bestselling Reference Series.
"I enjoyed my time with the Klipsch SPL-120 subwoofers," reports Michael S. Palmer in his hidefdigest.com review for June 11, 2019. "They deliver room-filling bass that accentuates your favorite LFE-friendly music and movie soundtracks, and they're handsome to boot."
Spun Copper Front-Firing Cerametallic™ Woofer
The SPL-120 benefits from its high responsive front-firing 12" spun copper Cerametallic™ woofer. The Cerametallic™ composite material is exceptionally light and extremely rigid, providing remarkable low frequency response with minimal cone breakup and distortion for higher, cleaner output using less amplifier power.
The woofer is housed in a non-resonating, stamped-steel basket that’s secured to a large magnet motor for exceptional efficiency and low distortion, and matched to our horn-loaded tweeters for optimal acoustic execution.
High Efficiency Class D Amplifier
The built-in, high efficiency amplifier features an analog preamp design, which maintains the original signal path for cleaner, true-to-source reproduction. The Class D output stage ensures maximum efficiency for maximum output, detail, and low frequency power.
Front-Firing Slot Port with Exclusive Internal Flare Technology
The cabinet of the SPL-120 incorporates proprietary internal geometry that minimizes port noise for clean undistorted low frequencies. The front-firing design allows for placement flexibility for great sound in various locations in your listening room or home theater.
WA-2 Wireless Subwoofer Kit Capable
Go wireless for a clean, uncluttered look and a super-simple hook-up. The optional Klipsch WA-2 Wireless Subwoofer Kit (sold separately) allows high resolution wireless connectivity of your sub for easy placement anywhere in your room, and it optimizes output and low frequency response. Connect up to four WA-2 wireless kits to compatible Klipsch subwoofers in a single room for a completely wireless connection.
Flexible Controls
The SPL-120 gives you flexibility with Low Pass Crossover and Variable Phase controls that allows you to tune the subwoofer to your Klipsch speakers and to your room, establishing the ideal level of bass. Line Level / LFE RCA inputs ensure compatibility with home theater receivers.
Both the RCA and wireless inputs can be utilized simultaneously, giving you the ability to use a single subwoofer with multiple systems in the same room. For example, you can use the wireless input for your home theater set up and the RCA input for your two-channel system, without needing to switch inputs when changing between systems.
1/2-Watt Standby Mode
Energy efficiency is important to Klipsch, and the SPL-120 offers exceptional efficiency, whether it's on or off. This subwoofer meets global efficiency standards, reducing your energy costs and contributing to a green lifestyle.
Detailed Design
The scratch resistant ebony finish looks like real wood and covers the entire cabinet. Shock-absorbing rubber feet, steel grille posts and a woven cloth grille give the SPL subwoofers a premium look and feel.
