RP-1600SW
16″ High Excursion Subwoofer
The new high-performance Klipsch subwoofers worthy of the Reference Premiere moniker are built with our groundbreaking acoustic technology and are, pound for pound, some of the best subwoofers Klipsch has ever created.

Hyper-Efficient Balanced Performance
Striking the optimal balance between amplifier power, driver capability and cabinet volume, Reference Premiere subwoofers achieve maximum low frequency extension with great output, accuracy and speed.
Spun Copper Front-Firing Cerametallic Woofers
Newly designed Cerametallic™ woofers are exceptionally light and extremely rigid, providing remarkable low frequency response with minimal cone breakup and distortion for higher, cleaner output using less amplifier power.


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.
Monster Bass Anyplace
Proprietary internal geometry with a new Aerofoil slot port design minimises port noise for clean undistorted low frequencies. The front-firing design allows for placement flexibility.


Easy-to-Use Controls
Low Pass Crossover and Variable Phase control 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 theatre receivers.
Go Wireless
The Klipsch WA-2 Wireless Subwoofer Kit (sold separately) allows high-resolution wireless connectivity for easy placement anywhere in your room and optimises 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.


Use Inputs Simultaneously
Both the RCA and wireless inputs can be utilised, 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 theatre set-up and the RCA input for your 2-channel system, without needing to switch inputs when changing between systems.
½-Watt Standby Mode
Exceptional efficiency on or off. Meets global efficiency standards — reducing energy costs for the user.


Design Upgrades
Scratch-resistant ebony vinyl finish looks like real wood and covers the entire cabinet. Rounded corners, shock-absorbing rubber feet, steel grille posts and a durable woven cloth grille ensure a premium look and feel.
