Polk Audio PSW10 review
Recently, I’ve been testing Polk Audio PSW10 vs Polk Audio PSW505 subwoofers. PSW10 model has a 10 inches driver on the front panel with a 50 W nominal and 100 W maximal output power. With a 85 dB sensitivity and 35-200 Hz frequency response range this subwoofer produces exceptionally clear sound. The combination of high-quality polymer woofer composition, enclosure construction techniques and proper speaker geometry results in an outstanding experience while listening to your favourite tracks.

With 25-160 Hz frequency response this subwoofer provides the room with a high performance impactful sound without any distortion. It can be easily connected to the existing system to upgrade the music sound instantly.
