What's great about it: Smooth deep tones
This sub woofer had me a little worried after I got it home. I didn't do any research on this paticular model, so I wasn't sure if it was too litte or too much for my system. After I powered it up ....... wow! Nice bass sounds. Smooth deep tones. No weak or flat bass sounds.
This product has... Right size for my space, Easy to set up, Good build quality

What's great about it: price, sound
What's not so great: bland looks that's all i got
This is a great sub for the price. It really shakes the furniture when I'm watching movies. I'm sure I could have bought ones that had a little more bass but I think I you would have to pay a premium for it. It is a little bland in the looks department but it's hidden away where no one will see it in the corner anyway. Great buy!

This review is not about the product itself, but about the service I received shopping at Best Buy. When I opened the box at home, I realized that the product had been opened before. The plastic packaging was loosely covering the speaker and the power chord was still plugged in. I have never purchased any item where the power chord was already plugged into the product in. The product was obviously an open boxed item that was not appropriately marked. I don't know if the speaker is good since I returned the product and I no longer shop at Best Buy.

What's great about it: Clarity
This sub was the final piece to my home theater system. I have two TSi300s, a CS10 and two Tsi15s, a Denon AVR-1912 and this baby. What I really love about this sub is that when it "hits", the bass is very clear and clean. I hate listening to systems that are just loud and boomy and have very little clarity. Its like this sub gets straight to the point and gives you exactly what you want to hear.
Before I purchased it, a few of my friends were against buying it since it was only 200 watts. Whatever... the bass is really rich and deep. I have a problem with my neighbors because they have been complaining to the leasing office whenever I turn the sub pass 5 DBs. smh. Luckily, the music that I listen to is mostly r&b, neo-soul, smooth rock, and alternative. I really do not need heavy bass to enjoy what I'm listening to, but the power is there if I ever want more.
If you love to watch action movies, you will definitely love this baby. The bass is very deep and rich which makes you feel like you are actually at the theater. Sounds like a date night to me!!! Now that I think about it, if I refrain from going to the movies a few times, the sub will help pay for itself! lol. Well, we'll see what my girlfriend thinks about that statement.
The only negative thing I can think of is that this sub is pretty big. If you have small or limited space, you may want to do some pre-measuring before purchasing it. Eventhough its large, it looks awesome, so I guess it balances itself out.
Installation is simple. It took me maybe 2 minutues to connect my one subwoofer cable to my receiver. In the rear of the sub, you can control the gain and there are additional hookups that can allow you to change your speaker hookups. Its all in the manual.
Overall, I would recommend this sub to anyone that is looking or a high quality sub that is also reasonably priced.
I also wrote a review on the denon avr-1912 also if anyone is interested in a receiver.

What's great about it: Price on sale was half off!! No way you match something like Polk for that price.
What's not so great: Cabinet covering.
It replaced an Infinity 12" with 300w power. Although my room is only 16x12 I was afraid this wouldn't be able to replicate my Infinity. But this baby rocks!!! Only have it on about half way and the bass is amazing :-). Not the greatest cabinet but since most people have the subwoofer in a corner or hidden it doesn't matter at all. It can easily be covered as the size is not big.

What's great about it: Sounds Awesome!
What's not so great: nothing yet
My floor speakers have 10" woofers in them! I never thought I needed a sub. This one was half price, $125 in a holiday sale so I though what the heck. I was already buying a new receiver for my new 3D tv.
This thing is hooked up to my Yamaha 525w 5.1 receiver and sounds great. I can hear this thing clear as day in my shower in the back of the master bedroom on the other side of the house. I highly recommend this sub. It has clean smooth tight bass, and no rattling from the unit it self, only everything else in the room including your brain. Perfect enhancement to music and movies!

What's not so great: huge box
best buy price matched frys and gave it to me for $136.. its paired up with H/K avr 3600. if you dont love this sub, you need to upgrade your reciever or get your ears cleaned out. its amazing for under $150 sub.

What's great about it: Auto On Mode
What's not so great: Maxed Volume Level
I was able to get this sub for half off, so I think that this is a pretty good unit.
This sub has a pretty decent range for a beginners sound system. It has the perfect volume level for the room I am using it in, however; in order to reach this volume I need to have the volume knob almost all the way turned up.
By far my favorite thing about this subwoofer is the power switch. It has On, Off, and Auto. The auto feature is really nice because the sub is only on when it is required.
Bottom line is that this is a pretty decent unit if you are able to get it at a good price. And keep in mind that it does not come with an audio cable.

What's great about it: Great price, easy to set up
Great sound for the money. Adds a lot of depth to a surround sound system. Plenty loud. Used with Dolby 5.1 surround sound system / Jamo in-wall speakers / Sony receiver / Room is 22x16 with 20 foot high vaulted ceiling. 10 inch and 200 Watt seems to fill the space well - no need to go to a larger sub-woofer.

What's great about it: smooth with good defination
this sub has met all of my expectations. The lows are handled smoothly with very good definition between notes. It has performed well as part of my surround sound system for television and movies and has done well with music also. Being part of the older generation, I have not used this sub at extremely loud volumes or with the more aggressive base heavy music of this day and age so I cannot give any pros or cons on that. I can only assume it will perform well if my listening habits are satisfied. My only complaint is that it is front firing with the small port on the bottom. i have cats and that was a concern, but so far so good. I use a piece of plexi-glass under the sub to reflect sound out from the bottom port so my carpeting doesn't eat it up.

What's great about it: value. excellent for price.
I got this sub on sale and am very happy with it. Good lows and enough power to fill my family room. It can be a little boomy when turned up too high but what would you expect at this price point? I have it set up with Boston Acoustics A26 bookshelf speakers and matching center with in ceiling BA rears. I took the time to play with the speaker volumes and xover frequencies to give the whole setup a clean and well balanced sound. Just finished watching Cowboys and Aliens in Bluray and the sound was fantastic - The woofer provided enough punch without overwhelming the rest of the speakers. Hope this helps you.

I bought this a couple days before Black Friday for $125 and I think that was a GREAT price for this sub. The amp in the klipsch promedia ultra 5.1 system I have burned out so I bought this to replace it and that's exactly what it did. It sounds just as good and I enjoy cranking it up for every movie we watch. This is my first polk purchase and I will definitely buy from them again.

What's great about it: Great bang for your buck!
What's not so great: Nothing!
I was on the hunt for a new sub for some time now. The PSW110 was at the top of my list for when I decided to buy. I saw around Christmas it was half off so it was a no-brainer to buy it instantly that day! At regular price this sub has plenty of power and a nice punchy bass that you would want. Now we aren't comparing this to a $1000 sub so I am not saying this is the best sub ever but by all means is more than enough for my house. I use this in a all open bi-level house where the sound travels far and wide. It fills my room and I haven't even broke it in yet and it's maybe half power. I would hesitate to buy this for any reason!

I bought this sub to complement my Klipsch KF28 floorstanding speakers and found it to be a total disappointment. I did give it a chance to break in, moved it around the room but wasn't able to get back anything other than booming mediocrity. This sub went back to the store.

I got this for half price on black Friday. It worked for a month then quit working. Swapped it for a new one. We'll see...
Other than that, no complaints. Good sound, plenty of bass, simple connections, nice looks. I'll update if there are more troubles.
