OK, This may make your head hurt. But here it goessss.
I have a PSW350 sub I think has been over worked. It pops when in DTS mode, sometimes other low levels. I have a DEF TEC supercube 1 behind the counter at the pawn shop I got for 2 bills. Top plate scratched up. Cant sell before refinishing. Don't know how to refinish. I can't find a replacement 10 cheap enough to make anything off the 350.

I WOULD LIKE TO STAY ALL POLK !!!

Do I use the 350 amp to push :eek: shakers under the couch? And keep the :eek: DEF TEC?
Wait forever to run across a cheap 10 for the 350. Sell it and the DEF TECH to finance a PSW????
The catch is. If I hookup the DEF TEC, put the 350 in the closet that is the way it all will stay. NO SALE... :confused:

Welcome to CP!

Where are you in OK.? The 350 isn't a real deep digging sub, and I would think the DT puts it to shame. Any sub amp will drive bass shakers, some of them require 25-50 watts, unless you get into Buttkicker or Clark Synthesis lines that are much more $$$.

Get rid of both of them and buy a better sub (Hsu, Outlaw or SVS, not Polk).

Hey Dennis,

Thanks for the response. I'm in Meeker, OK.. Yes, the 350 doesn't go to deep. I guess it wouldn't be to bad to add the DT to the equipment list. As far as the Clark and Buttkickers, I have a seven piece sectional. I need to spread it around a little. I figure I can series four shakers off the 350 amp without any problem. Anyway, keep in thouch.

Forget about the shakers. Just a buy (or build) a decent sub and you won't need them.

Thanks for the input. I've been looking at SVS. For the moment I will have to get the DT, figure out how to refinish it for sale. I should turn a pretty good profit, helping to finance my upgrade.
