Dual PSW1000 Goodness

[XJRGUY]

Yummy!

That's just a whole lot of volume at 30hz and higher.

I would recommend selling those and getting a real sub.

Just my $0.02 worth.

[XJRGUY]

Why sell them when I got BOTH for a price lower than one midrange-line SVS, Hsu, Velodyne, etc?

I'm well aware of the shortcomings of low frequency response of the PSW1000 series, but they look good, sound good (for what I expect out of them)

With these two stacked I am getting pretty darn good sound, and I am not expecting 15hz out of them so for what they are I am happy!

I've had one of them brand new, and the other one I recently purchased from another Polk forum member and it too is mint condition.

Like I said....It was just my $0.02 worth.

Regardless of what you payed for them you could easily sell them and get enough to buy a better sub. Don't get me wrong, I too have this sub, and besides the fact that it is virtually non-existent below 30hz, it is a pretty good sounding sub. Plus as you said, it is certainly nice looking.

My point was that you could most likely have a better sub with little or no money out of pocket. That's all.

Later.
Enjoy!

No biggie, I wasn't throwin' any 'tude! :)

If I was going to replace these with anything I would get that new BIG a$$ SVS PB/Ultra 13/2 or whatever is coming out.

That will most likely be $3000+

I've had the one PSW1000 for a while and just bought the other one recently, and I got such a great deal on both, it was pretty amazing.

I'd happily rock some PSW1000s. Maybe polk subs are the end-all, be-all, but I've owned a few and none have really disappointed at their price-points.

Nice setup!

Just like adding more small drivers to a speaker design can get 6.5" drivers to dig as deep as a single larger driver, I have to believe that adding a 2nd sub like this digs your low end out a little bit. It's not like the subs stop *trying* under 28Hz...they're still moving air.....just not enough air!! Just my theoretical impression. Maybe you're getting 27Hz as your -3dB instead :D

My PSW1000 gives my all I want.....I listen to about 80% music, and it produces outstanding deep bass musical tones. And man, it looks good up front between the 9's.

is it good to stack subs like that? i was trying to figure out what to do with my dual subs. currently, i have them on either side of my home entertainment center.
btw,
your system looks great!

[XJRGUY]

Thanks!

You are only seeing 30 percent of it!! LOL

I stacked the subs because it works good in this room.

After some research I found stacking can help the speakers work together and boosts low end response by up to 6Db.

cool. i might try that too. my only concern would be the top vibrates off into the floor or something. that would be my luck.

[XJRGUY]

holy crap are you serious??

The only way the top sub would fall off of the bottom one would be if a big earthquake hit L.A.

What kind of SPL's are you hitting?

LOL!
