About this product

Product Information

The Polk Audio PSW505 is a vintage subwoofer that carries a classic aesthetic appeal alongside its impressive list of features. Looks aside, you will find a polymer composite cone with a lower -3 dB limit of 28 Hz, making all levels of sound available to the user. This device can offer an output of up to 460 watts with a 300-watt continuous average, and the slot venting on this vintage subwoofer improves the bass response at all volume levels. All ports are pro-grade five-way binding posts, and an adjustable low-pass crossover with phase switch allows placement with almost any speaker combination. The nifty auto on/off feature automatically shuts off the amplifier and saves power if no signal is present for 15 minutes while the subwoofer remains ready to leap into action at a moment‘s notice when you're ready to listen.

    Extremely happy with purchase. The ad for the Realtrax set described the pieces very well, and the pictures were extremely helpful to show no cracks and very little wear. Each track piece was carefully wrapped and packaged very well in the shipping box. Fast shipping, and great communication. I recommend anyone consider Stereos and Legos. Great seller. Thank you.

    Awesome!

    Polk audio is a well name brand. I have 2 10" in my living room setup. I purchased this item to replace a 15" subwoofer in my theater room. I was some happy with this purchase and sound that I upgraded my receiver from 9.1 to 9.2 so I just ordered my second 505. The 505 is truly awesome and you can not beat the price. It sells for twice as much on another very popular site besides Ebay. The sub arrived much sooner that projected, now if they can do this again so I can hook up the new 505. Very pleased!!

  • PSW505 12" powered subwoofer

    I did my research for months, and the opinions I read are born out by the performance. Taking into account my room size and budget, this dude is hard to beat. I would skip the PSW10 altogether IMHO, under any circumstance and make this your entry level sub, because it will grow with you, and the PSW10 simply won't. Yes, there are other subs with better chops, but not for the money. Simply put, for less than two bills, I heard nothing better. There were a lot of subs that were more expensive, powerful and sonically broader, but not better performers for the space I was placing it in.

  • Very good subwoofer especially at this price.

    I purchased one of these subs in 2008 for my first surround sound system. Still works very well. When I saw these being offered at that price I decided to purchase another one for another system I was putting together. I looked at other used ones and decided why pay as much for a used sub when I could get this one new. I am using this one with (4) cerwin vega DX-9's in stereo mode. As good as it sounded before this sub fills in the gap that you do really realize is there until you turn it on. If you need a sub for an average size listening room this would be a great buy.

  • I own several low to medium grade 12" subwoofers

    This Polk PSW505 beats a PSW12, a PSW125 and my acoutatech 12". Although for music I like the PSW125 a little bit better as it has a higher top end and does not try to go as low and then distort. A PSW125 in combination with a PSW505 would likely beat all subs under $750 and cost less.

  • Good value and great for home theater

    The sound is very good. The controls offer good adjustments. Great for home theater in a medium to large room and is perfect for me. The amp can easily break up the speaker so there is plenty of power. The speaker is the weak link. If i play music and turn it up it will distort. It is controllable with the knobs though. You will spend $700 to get a better sub, so i call this a good value.
