Sub Issue

I purchased my psw10 a month or two ago and everything was going fine, but recently I've been having some problems. The bass response is nowhere near where it used to be, especially standing in front of the sub. If I stand on either side of it, it sounds fine but not quite like it used to, but when I'm in front of it, it sounds all fluttery like it was blown. I have pushed it before but never max volume and the problem occurred well after I had it cranked. Anyone have any ideas on what the problem could be?

    I myself have a PSW10, it sits in storage, I've been meaning to put it up on CL with some other stuff. What are your listioning habbits? If its strictly movies, you may want to look at a BIC sub, they seem to get good reviews and it fits great into your budget, or a HSU STF-1 can had for around ~300.00 with shipping. Good luck, I just did a major jump from my PSW10 and I couldn't be happier, really brings a new depth for movies, the fiancee even approves after watching a few!
