Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is the 1st item I've ever purchased from Polk, And I am sure glad I did this is an awesome sub more than exceeds my expectations

In my opinion this is probably the best sub-woofer for the price. The low's on this are great for movies & even better for music!! If you have a medium to small room/area then it's going to definitely Shake the walls !! The quality of the speaker is very good & not cheap ((Yes there are better subs)) it's a versatile sub at a great price.

I replaced an older sub woofer In which I loved but it had a short. The back of this sub is very similar to my old one. Bought it and it fills the job adequately. I have a large finished basement and with the right calibration it fills it up adequately. I would buy again.

Paired this with a Pioneer receiver and other Polk speakers. Works great. Pretty powerful. Very happy with this purchase.

These speakers are AWESOME for home theaters! The bass is superb and pushes the movies to the max. Definitely a win!

After looking at a few options to complete my media room I settled on purchase of Polk audio subwoofer from Best Buy . I love the subwoofer , quality and sound is far greater than I could have imagined and the cost as perfect where it did not break my bank. I was looking at getting thru Amazon big ten ability to see if physically in person and to talk to experts at Best Buy was my ultimate choice.

I bought this powered sub for my outdoor space it is amazing how much difference it makes.

Boom! I bought this sub woofer several weeks ago and installed it to our TV entertainment system. So easy to DIY, and it adds Movie Theater bass sound and vibration! Love it!

I use this sub in the bedroom and have it hooked up to my Yamaha yas106 soundbar. It really compliments the soundbar perfectly and adds just the right amount of bass for watching movies.

These sound amazing! I have 2 of em in my 7.2 system and I couldn’t be more pleased with my purchase.

This is the subwoofer of my dreams i wanted heavy bass with low rumbling frequency response and almost non existent thd

I have a Man Cave Extension where I have four Polk Audio Outdoor Speakers wall mounted, two Bookshelf JBL's and this Polk Audio Subwoofer. If gives me that much needed bottom end. All powered by an Onkyo Receiver.

I like the ability to control amount of bass. Can balance sound easily in the room. Purchased on October 18.

Very underwhelming, my tower speakers put out more bass than this sub, it also died after a couple weeks of use, best buy gave me a refund and I bought an SVS sub

I haven't got any idea why there's such good reviews on this subwoofer!... I only got 3 words for this sub... Distortion! distortion ! distortion! Whenever I play it..It sounds like it's blown and its brand-spanking-new mind you I had a an Onkyo home theater in a box that the subwoofer knocked!!! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!.. .. NOT BROOOMMMMOO!!!BROOOMMMMOO...BRRROOOMM. I don't know why but this is my experience I love Polk audio but this subwoofer is not a woofer at all.

I come from a long line of cobbled together sound systems, followed by home theater in a boxes, soundbars and Bluetooth workarounds. When I purchased my first home I decided to go for an actual sound system. A real home theater and while everything I purchased is considered entry level by price everything sounds much more expensive including this subwoofer. Simply put this subwoofer is a great deal. It's affordable without shirking on power, clarity or features. I was looking for a solid preforming sub and I found it. Clear solid bass with plenty of umph! (I actually lowered the sub's volume to around half.) Great sub for a great price. My setup for reference: 4x Polk Series 2 Monitor 60s 1x Polk Cs1 Center Channel 1x Polk Psw108 Subwoofer Yamaha Rx377bl receiver

Despite low cost, and even lower-cost as I bought an open-box item, this little sub does no harm, and has no negative traits. I feels subs can be broken into two categories: Music OR Theater. This will NOT rumble your rafters during explosions in action movies, but, will add pleasant bass presence. It is better suited to fleshing out the low-end sounds of music when using main speakers with woofers less than 6" in diameter, in moderate or small rooms. Controls are logical and intuitive, with multiple hook-up options. Noise floor is dead quiet. Neutral-looking, can be placed discreetly in the room. Do not over-use your sub. Most people do. A little sub volume goes a long way. If you are listening to CNN and the newscaster's voice is booming and rumbling, turn the sub down, and/or lower the crossover frequency….both easily done on this sub. Your regular speakers should produce 95% of your normal audio. When a low frequency bass note occurs in a song, or in a movie or TV show, a properly set-up sub will suddenly make it's presence known, and you will smile. Like an alligator or shark gliding just below the surface of the water, you shouldn’t notice the sub until !BAM! it strikes. This sub does that nicely.

Replaced an old Vizio 5.1 soundbar that was starting to malfunction after 10 years of usage. Went with the Bose Smart Soundbar 900 as the primary component. Decided I needed to get some punchy bass added, and saw some intrepid individuals had been successful in getting the Bose 600 bar to recognize Polk subs as the much more expensive Bose Bass Module 700 via 3.5 to RCA stereo cables. Rolled the dice, picked up this here PSW108, and now I've got a room shaking monster of a sound system and a big smile on my face.

I waited until it came on sale before I bought it, and for the $125 I paid for it, it is worth every penny. The speaker has crossover and volume controls on it, which are perfect for getting the sound dialed in. I am using it in my home office, connected to a Sony 5.1 Dolby surround sound receiver and an Onkyo 6 disc changer. The sub is paired with the new Sony SSCS5 3 way bookshelf speakers with the new super tweeter, which are also amazing little speakers that, for my tastes, are superior to the comparable Polk or Klipsch bookshelf speakers for the warmth of sound and dynamic range. It took a few hours to break in the Polk Audio sub, but once it was broken in, it didn't take long to get the system dialed in to add enough bass and low end sound to really round out the audio experience. I usually listen at lower levels since I am often on the phone, and I was able to adjust things to still get that great bottom end without interfering with my work. And after hours, if I want to crank the system up, it will shake my chair. LOL This is a great sub for the money, but wait to buy it on sale.

During 3/2017, my Yamaha YST-SW215 subwoofer burned out after 12 years of satisfying use, so I needed a replacement subwoofer. Originally, I wanted to replace this Yamaha subwoofer with the exact same unit. Unfortunately, Yamaha did away with this unit as it existed. The nearest new Yamaha subwoofer that I could use as a replacement lacked the automatic power on feature when there is heavy bass in the sound input to the subwoofer. During 4/2017, I found the Polk PSW108 (PSW108) at Best Buy, and it did have the automatic power on feature when there is heavy bass sound in the sound input to the unit, so I bought the PSW108 at Best Buy. Best Buy had the unit on sale at a special price! The Polk subwoofer is bigger, the subwoofer is 10 inches versus 8 inches for the Yamaha subwoofer that I replaced. The overall enclosure of the Polk subwoofer is bigger than the Yamaha subwoofer as well. I am using this Polk subwoofer with a Yamaha surround sound receiver RX-V679 in a 5.1 surround sound speaker setup. This Polk suboofer is a great value. It offers good bass response, and I was able to tailor its sound and performance to my liking by using both the controls that exist on the Polk subwoofer and some settings on my Yamaha surround sound receiver. This Polk subwoofer performs well when playing music or when you view a movie that has special effects with explosions and booms.
