I have a 5.1 Setup consisting of:

Receiver: Pioneer VSX-920-K
Front: Monitor 70
Center: CS2
Rears: Monitor 50

I'm looking to add a Subwoofer to that setup. I bought a PSW111, but that thing is either broken or incompatible (turns on and off all the time, making a loud "thump"-sound) so I'm kinda not interested in buying another one. I've ordered a PSW10 for my Computer Speaker setup (consisting of Monitor 40's), but I'd like a subwoofer with LFE Input for my Home Theater.

Are there any non-polk subs that you would recommend? Ideally available in cherry or similar, as black looks awful in that room.

    What kind of budget are you looking at? I think that'll help us get you pointed in the right direction.

    For a tighter budget sub, if you can find the PSW505 it's a great one that would go well for what you are running. I've got it with a setup almost identical to yours, except I'm using M60's for surrounds. You can't go wrong for its $230 price point... if you can find one.
