Request For Polk
Please print this message and tape it to Matthew Polk's computer monitor so that he reads it.
Matthew,
Could Polk PLEASE consider making their better subwoofers available in Cherry finish ?
Please tell your product development managers that a Polk subwoofer should look as beautiful as it sounds, and it should fit in with other furniture in the home. I am not the only customer that feels this way !
Right now everything in our home is beautiful expensive wood, brass, and glass, except for the big, black, glossy Polk sub. It clearly doesn't fit in, but what choice do we have ? My wife wants me to get rid of it and buy the Boston Accoustics PV1000, but I refuse to do that because the PV1000 does not sound nearly as good as the PW650.
So can Polk PLEASE start making these subs in cherry ? If not, why not ?
Sincerely,
Rich

The new PSW 808 is supposed to have cherry side panels to match the LSi's.
Your wish is granted:) -

rbauer,
Just a thought here. Have you ever considered applying some cherry veneer to your 650? You should be able to find it at any quality woodworkers store, not necessarily Lowes or Home Depot. A friend of mine put some cherry veneer on the front, top, and sides of his 450 to match the decore of the room, TWF, and it turned out looking great! -
You know.........I agree.
I have been saying it for years.....more colors please.
They dropped the ever so today popular color of Maple.The subs have been as ugly as sin......Hello some wood offerrings would be very pleasing.........**** at least make em special order......
I want Maple Lsi's dam it........Dan
My personal quest is to save to world of bad audio, one thread at a time. -
I could really care less about the color of the side panels, how about a sub with some useful response below 30Hz? Priced competetively also.Check your lips at the door woman. Shake your hips like battleships. Yeah, all the white girls trip when I sing at Sunday service.

The wood is sexy, sure but sexy don't hit the bottom registers and nor does it matter (for me) sitting in the corner.
SVS and DIY tube subs are selling like hot cakes on this forum. Ugly as all get-out, and yet....!
Polk front passive speakers have always been appreciated for their bass, and yet....!Make it Funky!
