Bought the PSW110 to complement my new TSi400's and CS10 center. Was unsure whether to go one model up for more power--that would have been completely unnecessary. Calibrated properly, it kicks out enough clean, tight thump to rattle your windows (if that's what you want... I don't, so much). I don't even have the volume halfway up, and it's as much bass as I can take in a 20'x20' room with carpet over concrete floor, and 12' ceilings. Don't get me wrong--the TSi400's have good low end on their own, and I probably could have done without a sub--but I'm glad I shelled out $250 for this one. It sits nicely behind the TV stand and fills the room with a tight foundation. Coupled with the towers and the center for home theater, it covers the bases nicely. I might still shop for some satellites for surround, but honestly, this speaker setup is intended more for music than home theater. Also, the cherry finish is gorgeous--not that anyone sees it back there!

The companies, Amazon & Vanns, sent me the wrong color subwoofer, but they did offer to replace it. The subwoofer performance has been excellent, providing an adequate bass boost to complement my existing Bose 301 speakers.

I'm not sure where this eval is going but I can't say

enough about this subwoofer as it has provided a depth

of listening enjoyment that I have not experienced for

years - my other recently acquired Polk speakers

(bookshelf & center speakers)were lacking in decible depth

then the subject woofer turned my system into an awesome

speaker match and I have gone to playing tunes from rarely

to all-the-time - I'm so pleased with the quality of sound

from the entire system! and the cherry-wood exterior of all

four speakers has a quality appearance and adds much to our

home decor -

You can't go wrong with this one even at 10 time the price but @ this price you have to be nuts not jump all over it. I have a complete home theater setup comprised of all Polk Audio components and I couldn't be happier with them. This sub gives a full and dynamic base sound, capable of achieving the lowest lows...it just constantly delivers and never dissipoints me!

Replaced a 15 year old Bose with the Polk Audio Speakers including this sub-woofer. Best way to discribe the sound is smooth. I'm hearing sounds in movies I did not know were there. These are being run by An Onkyo 806. This is in a room 18 X 15. More than enough speaker. Glad I didn't go one bigger.

Excellent component. Well priced, designed and appointed. Audio response very good. Component has internal amp to output to expernal aux speakers. Compact and good finish. Internal volume, phase and filtering controls.

I , bought the polk sub with the monitor series frt and rear thinking I should match brands. well, apparently that is not necessary, so after i received the system and set it up I found the polk sub to be underwhelming. granted, i did not spend a lot of time in calibration so this may have tilted my opinion somewhat.It may be suitable for some but i was expecting less of a "muddy" sound. Unfortunately, the sub looks awesome with my surrounds, but that isn't enough to satisfy my sensitive hearing. I'm sure others would be happy with the performance at this price range but I returned the polk and am now shopping for an upgrade
