Polk Audio PSW125 12-Inch Powered Subwoofer (Single, Black)

Polk Audio PSW125 12-Inch Powered Subwoofer (Single, Black) Review



I had a PSW-140 (over 10 years old) that finally died. I think it was from a power surge. Sent the amp section back to Polk for repair. Because parts are no longer available, they could not fix it. However, Polk did something that has made me a life-long customer. They offered me a deal on any current-model Polk subwoofer of my choosing, since I went to the trouble to send in the old amp for repair. I picked the 125 and I'm very happy with it. From start to finish, I dealt directly with a manager at Polk who was very helpful, informative and a really nice guy to boot. You can tell he loves his work. And the deal he gave me on the new unit was unbelievable - I can't thank Polk enough. I'm not going to publish the price for the replacement because I don't think it's fair to Polk. This was an unusual situation, and they did an unusually nice thing for a long-time customer. This is a company I like dealing with. The only reason I rated the 125 4 stars rather than 5 is that there are better, more expensive subs out there. Everybody knows that. But even at the 9 price point, this sub is a bargain for great sound!

Polk Audio PSW125 12-Inch Powered Subwoofer - Frank Hagen - usa
I paired this sub with a polk cs10 center, polk tsi 100 front,and polk t15 surround with my sony str-de945 reciever and it is crazy intence! The sound will blow you off of the couch! crystal clear and the bass will knock your teeth out! We love it!
p.s..YES IT IS TRUE, YOU WILL NEED TO BREAK IN THE SPEAKERS (ALL OF THEM) AND IT WILL TAKE ABOUT 15-20 HOURS, BUT YOU WILL HEAR AND FEEL THE DIFFERENCE!



Great subwoofer - Sam - Anaheim, CA
I'm using the subwoofer in a home theater system. The speaker
is connected to a receiver; I'm also using a Polk soundbar.
The sound is great and the crossover from the soundbar speakers
to the subwoofer is seamless.

A great value for the price paid. The only issue was to find a
large enough space in my cabinet as this subwoofer is fairly large.
I got it in by moving other components around, but I should have
looked into this issue before ordering the subwoofer. So, check
your available space and buy accordingly.



Fantanstic Value ! Great product !! - David Walker -
I purchased this 12 inch Polk Sub woofer online for 5 plus shipping at expoNJ.com [List and at my local Best Buy was 9] Shipping was the only negative .somewhat slow . Another and it took 2 weeks to arrive. It was perfect, not a second or a refurbished . . It's performance is astounding . . easy to connect, clear instructions, and it can connect to any amp . . you don't need a 'sub woofer output'- just use the existing left and right amp outputs if you don't have a lowlevel connection . . This is my sons who lives on a low bass rumble . . even he is impressed . . I want to steal it from him for my Home Theater surround sound system . . IF there is a better deal on a great sub woofer, I haven't found it yet !!!
