Hey guys. Are these actual "sub woofers"?? Do they add bass the system or are these just regular speakers? Also, what do the covers/grills look like?

They are base speakers, not sub woofers. Sub woofers would require a much larger housing than what the lower fairing provides. The grill covers are a cloth covered plastic housing that covers the speaker and match the shape of the inner fairing speaker mount shown behind the speaker.

I had to "modify" the cable from the sub woofer output jack to slip on fittings on the speakers. It isn't a poweed sub but really sounds good. Can't remember if the speaker came with a cable but don't think so. Your stereo should have a cable for a sub. Hope this helps?

They have reasonable bass. As I mention before they have to be broken in to fully appreciate. Bass is not great but good for the price of the speakers. Obviously there are other options out there with better bass and higher quality. If the price is not an issue I would recommend more research to be done.

If you want stereo speakers, buy some. As studio monitors, transient noise and harmonic distortion is minimized in part by their lack of driver covers "speaker grill"s. I do not see any connectors for covers. If you already have them I suggest you return them for a speaker that meets your taste or use nothing more than adhesive hook and loop to attach covers so as to not reduce their resale value by compromising their acoustical integrity.

They are a fair speaker the bass is not bad in volume however it does tent to sound quite muddy I would personally get a set of the Rockford prime series in the 6 x 8 as I own both of these.T he improved sound is worth the extra cost. good luck

I think they're pretty solid. They seem able to get pretty low in terms of frequency response. Mount them in a well made box and play around with your input power and gain and you can tune them pretty nicely. These are NOT 10 or 12" subwoofers. I would say a pair of these compares to a nice high power 10" or lower power 12".

I honestly don't remember. I installed mine a year ago. But I think you can. I know there is a sub out that I hooked mine into. But why would you want to? Bass is good.

We bought an amp to go with them. These are subwoofers and accentuate the bass in songs. I think you probably just need new speakers.

They will deliver great "all around sound." But the all around sound will not be anything like the sub woofer you're replacing. Bass is often felt more then heard so a big subwoofer (bigger then 10") has the ability to move more air compared to the woofer in one of these speakers. Also the sub woofer is usually configured to only fire for sounds lower then some frequency. This allows the subwoofer to cleanly deliver the lowest vibrations that are heard and felt by the listener. The speakers in question can deliver bass but since the woofer is doing double duty by also playing mids the sound can become muddy at high levels. They will deliver great "all around sound."

first, they are just speaker grills, not speakers. They are made of a black plastic surround and wire screen/mesh. look very nice.

Dear Grant,Thanks so much for your inquiry. The Klipsch RF-62 II Floorstanding speakers are awesome. Terrific clarity, great imaging, decent amount of bass. They are not, however, a subwoofer, which is amplified speaker that does bass only. One certainly cannot replace the other--they accomplish two different things in your system. Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance.Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

What exactly is your question? I have a pair of these as rear surround mounted on the ceiling behind a couple of theater seats...they sound awesome..but i have a sub hooked up...ok from previous answers i gather you want to use them as rear speakers..not good idea..they are mainly surround speakers, so not very good bass response.

Your guess as as good as mine. I enjoy mine almost every day, but they are wired up to my audio amp. My guess is that Amazon is so fond of these speakers that they want everybody to notice them, regardless of the section they're browsing.

For speakers in this price point, they would do quite well as surround speakers. I brought my pair of AW150s in for the winter and am using them in the home office. They come with a base plate to be free standing as well as wall mounted. With a Pinnacle sub-woofer providing low bass, they sound quite nice. Do they sound as great as the Klipsch RS-41s used for the home theatre? No. But the Klipsch cost 5 time as much.

Hi, yes the actual metal covers are white but obviously as they are preforated they look more like a off white from most angles and if directly underneath you can tell there's a black assesmly behind it, having said that I'm happy with the appearance. I note great full range speaker but for the size I'm suprised that there isn't more base from these speakers- but is well balanced, I had hoped for an ability to unbalance the base given the size but I can not. Still very happy though don't get me wrong here. :)

You have to screw into the smooth side of the plastic like you would screw speakers onto a subwoofer box. Use sheet metal screws, self tapping screws, self piloting screws, etc....And once speakers are attached to the bracket it can and will look like and install like the stock speakers, except for the wire modification
