Digital camera reviews of Polk Audio Monitor Series PSW12 12-Inch Powered Subwoofer (Single, Cherry)
Digital camera Review: Fantastic!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this sub to replace my JBL Northridge Series E-250p, which just happened to fry two months after the one year warranty ran out. How convenient. It turns out that I am not the only one with the problem. JBL had a design problem with the circuit board. Some subs keep on working, some don't.
Overall, I think that this sub sounds better, plus it has a five year warranty.

Hailing from Polk's reborn Monitor series--which ushered in the modern loudspeaker era in the mid 1970s--the sub combines quality construction with high-end performance, all for a price that won't break the bank. The PSW12 is equipped with a 12-inch polymer-composite cone woofer that creates tight, musical bass, along with state-of-the-art laser-based Klippel measurement technology that perfectly centers the voice coil within the magnetic field. The latter function improves the linearity of the frequencies to ensure a deep, precise sound for everything from action-movie explosions to thumping hip-hop.
Adding to the quality is the non-resonant medium-density fiberboard (MDF) enclosure, the 0.75-inch baffles, and the internal bracing, all of which contribute to the sub's superior detail, accuracy, and musicality. Meanwhile, the PSW12's built-in high-current amplifier (100 watts continuous, 260 watts dynamic) supplies all the power you need for big bass. And thanks to the adjustable low-pass crossover, phase switch, and volume control, it's easy to blend your sub's output with your front and rear speakers. The sub even includes automatic signal-sensing circuitry, so it instinctively knows when to turn itself on and off.
Though the PSW12 will work with any speakers, the sub is specifically designed to complement the clean, stylish look and robust sound of Polk's entire Monitor speaker line. The cherry finish is particularly compelling, with a neutral wood color that fits seamlessly in most surroundings.
Connectivity stems from the line- and speaker-level inputs, along with the unfiltered LFE input. The combined options make it easy to connect the PSW12 with any receiver or amplifier. And movie fans will delight in the magnetic shielding, which protects nearby TVs and video monitors from video distortion. Measuring 16 by 16.38 by 17.62 inches (W x H x D) and backed by a five-year warranty on the speaker and a three-year warranty on the internal amp, the PSW12 makes a great introduction to powerful home theater sound.
