Amazon.com Product Description

Give your movies and music the rich, powerful audio they deserve with the Polk Audio PSW10 powered subwoofer. Hailing from Polk's reborn Monitor series--which ushered in the modern loudspeaker era in the mid-1970s--the sub combines quality construction with high-end performance, all for a price that won't break the bank. The PSW10 is equipped with a 10-inch polymer-composite cone driver that creates tight, musical bass, along with state-of-the-art laser-based Klippel measurement technology to perfectly center the voice coil within the magnetic field. The Klippel technology improves the linearity of the frequencies to ensure a deep, precise sound for everything from action-movie explosions to cello musical passages.

Adding to the quality is the non-resonant medium-density fiberboard (MDF) enclosure, the 0.75-inch baffles, and the internal bracing, all of which contribute to the sub's superior detail, accuracy, and musicality. Meanwhile, the PSW10's built-in high-current amplifier (50 watts RMS, 100 watts dynamic) supplies all the power you need for big bass, while the adjustable low-pass crossover, phase switch, and volume control make it easy to blend your sub's output with your front and rear speakers. The sub even includes automatic signal-sensing circuitry, meaning it knows when to turn itself on and off.

Though the PSW10 will work with any speakers, the sub specifically designed to complement the clean, stylish look and robust sounds of Polk's entire Monitor speaker line. The black oak finish is particularly compelling, with a style that fits seamlessly with most modern furnishings.

Connectivity stems from the line- and speaker-level inputs, along with the unfiltered LFE input. The combined options make it easy to connect the PSW10 with any receiver or amplifier. And movie fans will delight in the magnetic shielding, which protects nearby TVs and video monitors from video distortion. Measuring 14 by 14.38 by 16.12 inches (W x H x D) and backed by a five-year warranty on the speaker and a three-year warranty on the internal amp, the PSW10 makes a great introduction to powerful home theater sound.

Polk Audio PSW10 Powered Subwoofer.......2007-06-02

While I was looking for sub-woofer I was comparing PSW10 and PSW404. PSW404 sounds better but for the price $110 vs. $250 at J&R I opted for PSW10. The sale representative dropped the price for me even though they still selling PSW10 for $200 here. Those of you who worry about no LFE input, that shouldn't be a problem. All you have to do is connect the sub-woofer output of the receiver to either the right or left input on the sub-woofer. And then set the variable low pass filter on the sub-woofer to the highest setting. This will set the internal low pass filter above the low pass filter frequency given by your receiver and create an LFE input. Or you may use a RCA cable to provide a connection to both inputs on the sub-woofer from the LR pre-out from the receiver. Then adjust the cross over frequency from the woofer as desired. It sounds a little louder and better for me. I bought Monster sub-woofer cable and it sounds no better than RCA cable. Try not to waste your money on this. It has 7.4 out of 10 in CNet rating and it is #6 in editor's top list for sub-woofers. I matched PSW10 with R300, RTi4, R150, CSi3 and Denon 1906 receiver. Mainly used for HDTV over the air, DVD movies and some FM. It sounds a lot better than the Passive sub-woofer from RM6750. It carries 5 years warranty but make sure you buy from Authorize dealer. For the price I paid I am more than happy with it. I hope this helps to your decision.

Terrific and practical sub-woofer .......2007-05-02

I have been using the PSW10 for over a year and have been very happy with it. It is part of a Monitor 50 / 30 and RM202 setup for a small to medium listening area. While it does not go extremely deep, and does not generate thunderous bass, it is very clean, quick and very good for my use. I listen to music more than going 5.1, and the PSW10 does do magic for music listening.

The connectivity is no issue for me. Power is relative and it is more than adequate for me even watching movies. I almost never turn the volume pass halfway point, so port noise has not been an issue for me.

I have been a Polk Audio fan for a very long time. Like their clean sound very much. The PSW10 and Monitors look nice and clean (it did take a few days to get use to the feet on the 50s). Construction of all speakers are solid, and overall sound matching is very good.

The auto on/off on PSW10 is also a very handy feature. Footprint is not the most compact by itself, but turned out to be good for me. I have a rear-projection HDTV, the PSW10 actually makes it visually easier to transition from the wide screen to the very slim Monitor 50.

For a small to medium listening area, this is a very good quality and practical subwoofer. I highly recommend it.

Great Subwoofer .......2007-05-02

Excellent sub. Plenty of power and distortion doesn't seem to be a problem for this thing. It hits the low end very well. Very clean sound. Easy to hook up. Well made, if rather large. I didn't think it would be as big is it is. Looks nice. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

A decent sub-woofer.......2007-03-18

Though the speaker connections are a bit unconventional, I am enjoying the Polk Audio PSW10 Monitor Series Powered Subwoofer. The cosmetic description is dead-on accurate, quite an attractive speaker. (Mine is in black oak.) For a smaller type of powered sub-woofer, its depth of field is quite impressive. No rattles, buzzes, or hums. With music with a wide range of depth, I'm glad that I opted for the PSW10 and not the PSW 8. Placing the PSW10 in a small room doesn't diminish the magnitude of the sound. In fact, it increases it!

Quality product with WRONG manual.......2007-03-09

WARNING: PSW10 does not have a single subwoofer socket. Instead, you need use L or R socket for its stereo inputs.

Good quality. Sounds ok, matched with my purchase of a pair of R50.

Recommended for entry level home theater system.
