Anything Polk I have been nothing but impressed by. You can't go wrong with this sub!

I am shock how well this sub performed. I am pleased that it works so well

Purchased this sub woofer to compliment a bedroom 5.1 setup. The sounds that came out of the port on this unit were anything but musical. Even at low volume it sounded like there were squirrels inside the box. Best Buy rep said it must be defective, and replaced. Second unit sounded just as awful. Returned second unit, spent a bit more for a Klipsch. Happy now. :)

I actually bought the PSW110 (a step up from the 108) about 2 years ago. The internal power supply has already gone bad. I previously had a JBL for maybe 5 years with the same failure. Many years ago Polk produced some decent speakers. They have never been a top shelf brand but the sound on this line IMO is not what I would prefer. If you have ever listened to a speaker that produces a flat, tight bass you will know what I am referring to. The deep notes / tones should hit and be gone quickly, (unless the sound track calls for different). Reverb and echo should be either part of the soundtrack or as an effect that the listener adds via the head unit. Not at the discretion of the speakers build. (Cone and it's surround, voice coil, magnet etc. quality and materials / used).

I bought this sub over a year ago with polks Tseries speakers and was never satisfied with it. I moved it around, constantly changed settings, but could never get good sound. I eventually replaced the Tseries towers with Polk S60s and they seemed to have as much bass as the Psw108. I ended up replacing it with a HTS12 which is amazing. so bottom line is the only reason I would buy this sub is if i lived in an apartment and had small satellite speakers. As for home owners who are trying to get a descent home theater DON NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!

I bought this sub to replace my aging jbl sub and it just did not perform well. I already own an excellent pair of Polk towers and this would have completed the set. At lower volumes or gain settings it just would not produce enough bass . Toggling the phase switch made no difference . Turning the reciever volume or the sub’s gain to get any significant bass response would cause the sub to produce a loud sound when the output of the reciever peaked. Having some experience building car audio systems it appears that the port is not properly designed and/or positioned. The odd sound is produced when the sub cone is at or near the extremes of its travel. My old 10” Jbl sub outperformed it with much less cone travel. I returned this sub and bought the Sony Core series 10” sub and it worked flawlessly. For only $10 more the Sony is well worth the money.

Quit working after 6 weeks. Tried on standby and directly on to no avail. Power light does not light up green for on or red for standby any longer either. Very disappointing to say the least. Will be calling polk customer service after Christmas day now since they are closed on weekends.

Product looks good but was not my choice because it had to connection to receiver.

Got this at Sears a few years back......lasted about a year...hooked it up to a sound bar and worked great for a year or so. Now it just hums and crackles every now and then. It still trying to work but no thumping bass...for 260 bucks should be able to last longer than this..
