Power to please
If you’re finding that your movies, music and gaming are missing something, a powerful subwoofer from Polk Audio could be just what you’re looking for. Featuring a 10 inch subwoofer dedicated to bass and powered by a 50 watt amplifier, the Polk PSW10E delivers the bottom line that conventional speakers miss. With bass delivered right down to 40Hz, you get the powerful, dynamic sound that’s usually only found on large, floorstanding speakers.
Punchy, resonant-free sound
This Polk Audio isn’t just about how low the bass goes, it’s about how precise it is, too. The polymer composite cone is highly rigid, meaning it moves with precision – reducing sonic distortion. The cabinet uses solid construction for rattle-free sound. Using a front bass port not only improves the efficiency but also means you can place the subwoofer close to a wall or in a corner, without blocking the port – giving consistent and even bass in all room locations.
Set the perfect balance
Comprehensive controls make it easy to get the PSW 10e to perfectly match your existing speakers and room acoustics. Set the low pass filter for the sub to seamlessly pick up the sound where your existing speakers tail off – from 160 to 80Hz. Then set the phase control to ‘0’ or ‘180’, depending upon whether the sub is placed in front of or behind you. Finally, set the volume to personal taste. Generally the larger and more densely furnished a room is the higher this needs to be – but it’s entirely up to you and there’s no ‘wrong’ setting!
Choice of connections
Designed to work with all types of systems, the PSW10e has both speaker and line level inputs. Line level (phono) inputs are generally used when connecting an AV receiver or certain amps and soundbars. The speaker level inputs work with any system that has conventional speaker outputs. Simply connect your speakers to the subwoofer and wire the sub to your system as though it were the original pair of speakers – simple.
Get right to the bottom line, with the Polk Audio PSW 10e.

Great punchy sound, quality for the price
I bought this a few weeks ago as a temporary stop gap until I can build something that little bit special. Thinking price is representative of quality in this market I thought it was good enough to be decent for now, but wow were my expectations exceeded.
The sub is well built and sturdy, coupled with multiple inputs and tone adjustability which I've not personally seen at this price point. The sound is decently punchy without going overboard and drowning out the mid and highs. It's so much better than I expected that I think it will be a permanent mainstay as I see no need to swap it for something else.
To that point the design is decent enough to fit in with most setups without looking too flashy l.
Overall very impressed with the Polk and I'd recommend this for anyone wanting decent bass for sub £200

Good price, good sound!
Bought this to install in a medium sized room, paired up to my AV receiver to replace my previous Tannoy sub. Set-up is simple and the sound is much tighter and better controlled than my Tannoy was. Feels sturdily built too. An excellent buy for the price. If I'd ordered one day later I would have got it £30 cheaper in an Easter promotion too.............oh well!!

Impressive upgrade
My Tanoy subwoofer died after about 7 years of faithful service. I have a Sony STR-DN1080 and operate it as a 7.1 system with small Tanoy speakers. I ordered the Polk Audio PSW10e as a replacement subwoofer and I have to say I’m thoroughly impressed. Watching Lord of the Rings 4k with Dolby Atmos has been a wonderful experience. We could almost feel Sauron’s armies stomping through our living room! Well worth the money!

Excellent service
I wanted a new sub woofer and not sure what was best for me. The staff spent about 20 mins checking and advising me. When I tried it at home I had a small issue so they. Asked me to rake all my equipment to the store where they tested everything and sorted my issue. Knowledgeable and friendly service. Now very pleased with my item.
