Thanks for the review! As a fellow dealer, We can definitely confirm the Polk Audio XT12 Subwoofer. The XT12 features a 12" high-excursion damped driver, a built-in high current amplifier, and a 1.5" voice coil that produces deep, powerful bass. This subwoofer comes with Polk Audio's patented Power Port technology, which helps reduce distortion and improve sound quality. The XT12 also features a variable crossover, phase switch, and volume control, which help customize the subwoofer. Overall, I think the Polk Audio XT12 Subwoofer is an amazing subwoofer that provides deep, powerful bass. If you have any questions about this subwoofer or any other Polk Audio product, just let me know!
Thanks for the awesome video on this subwoofer. I bought it today for 340€ and it's amazing for a 35 square meter room! I chose it on your recommendation. Precisely for accurate delivery. I can confirm, it is really accurate not booming. Everything is great, but in the future I have to dampen the box. It's terrible :D The amplifier and the speaker itself are of good quality and the amplifier does not overheat.
Thank you for the review. It was informative. I am a cat lover ❤ and I like to see that your "4-leg assistents" lurking around, sniffing and checking up on your gears. Do they leave some scratchmarks on your equipments?
Thank you! Yeah, he's my little guy that is always interested in what I am doing. He is very careful with my equipment when walking on it and so far he hasn't scratched anything.
The REL and SVS are good bit better in sound quality and rightly so (they cost significantly more), but the Polk XT12 is probably the best subwoofer I have heard in the under $300 price point. IMO the Polk XT12 is the poor man's REL if that makes sense. :)
Yes! The XT12 surprised me with its ability to deliver deep strong bass that can fill a medium sized room. I wasn't expecting it to have so much output considering its amplifier is only rated for 50watts RMS. I would bet money that this amplifier delivers more watts than its rated for. At $299 sale price, this subwoofer is a nice bargain!
Thanks! I'm new at this and just having fun with it. I mention the port length in the video and can't remember it off the top of my head. I haven't had a chance to review the HTS 12 to see if it shares the same driver as the XT12, but that wouldn't surprise me if it did. I have heard the HTS 12 is quite impressive too, but its also a lot more expensive, which means more competition at that price point.
Thanks, PatentRob! The HTS 12 looks like a nice subwoofer too, but its also significantly more expensive than the XT12. What interest me most about the XT12 is the class A/B amplifier. It kind of reminds me of a poor mans version of a REL subwoofer. Maybe one day I will try out a HTS 12 and do a video about it.
Is there a lot of port chuffing when the Polk is pushed hard? How does this compare to the REL ht1205? BTW I really enjoy your videos very informative!!!
Nice review! Are you able to review the CerwinVega SL12 or SL15 series speakers? There isint much content out there on the newer CerwinVega! Speakers and I think it would do well for your channel 👍🏻🔈

Nice review!
Great review!
nice review, thank you
Thank you for the kind words. This is just the Look Inside video, my full review of the XT12 will be out next month. :)
This is review! Thanx 🙌🙏
Very Nice 👍🏻
Can you check out the Polk audio psw505 and the Polk HTS 12 :)
Would you compare sound quality (especialy music) with the svs or rel sub?
The REL and SVS are good bit better in sound quality and rightly so (they cost significantly more), but the Polk XT12 is probably the best subwoofer I have heard in the under $300 price point. IMO the Polk XT12 is the poor man's REL if that makes sense. :)
From the looks of it, this sub represents superb value for $$. That driver sure looks the business alongside the internal amp.
l have one and sound very powerfull than my expected. How so powerfull 100 watt sub? İs Reason a/b class amp?
Yes! The XT12 surprised me with its ability to deliver deep strong bass that can fill a medium sized room. I wasn't expecting it to have so much output considering its amplifier is only rated for 50watts RMS. I would bet money that this amplifier delivers more watts than its rated for.

Very well very good inside box review
Whats the port size and length
And do the hts12 and monitor xt12 share same driver???
Thanks! I'm new at this and just having fun with it. I mention the port length in the video and can't remember it off the top of my head. I haven't had a chance to review the HTS 12 to see if it shares the same driver as the XT12, but that wouldn't surprise me if it did. I have heard the HTS 12 is quite impressive too, but its also a lot more expensive, which means more competition at that price point.
I would have selected Polk Audio HTS 12. Nevertheless, great work.

No.
Class a, being 100wt will output about 50-70watt to the speaker. Sound qiality in subwoofer freaquencies is the least thing you should worry about
is this better then the Klipsch R100SW?
Yes. Much better.
Nice review! Are you able to review the CerwinVega SL12 or SL15 series speakers? There isint much content out there on the newer CerwinVega! Speakers and I think it would do well for your channel 👍🏻🔈
I'll look into it. Thanks for the suggestion!
