Bought 2 of these years ago at $150 each. Do not regret it.
This or the $150 Klipsch R-12SW 12" Costco deal?
in before SVS crew comes with their propaganda saying "JUST spend only $300-400 more and get an SVS sub"

When did the price jump?
Got a couple of these about six or seven years ago for about $120 or so.
For the money I'm a fan, I use them in a budget 7.2 home theater.

I bought a refurbished 15" about 6 months ago from them around this price. I thought it was defective but I just needed a 2 to 1 rca cable. Great buy and does what I need. Glad I didn't go all in on a $400 sub because lord knows the rabbit holes after that

Don't know why all the hype for the Costco deal, somethings up there. This Dayton SUB-1200 is better than the Klipsch, even though just slightly but is also at a lower price.

I haven't heard the klipsch, but I own this dayton and for the price, it's very hard to beat.

Excellent! I'd wanted one of these when I finished my surround setup last year but it had slipped my mind. I'll take a slight discount!

Swear I bought this a few years back on sale for about 100 even - even so this is still a pretty good price for a more than adequate sub for medium to reasonably large rooms. Not the most subtle sub but if oomph if what you re after - it's hard to beat this for the price IMHO. Like oahumike said though - make sure you have the right cable.

Don't own this, but in general the Parts Express Dayton stuff is good for the money.

This is kinda the normal price, they seem to always have that coupon, also it actually seemed to go up a bit, it was 149.99 for months just like a month ago, anyways though I would pick this over the polk or similar priced one
