Need Help - DSW Pro 500 or DSW Pro 550wi?

Ok, I need some help. I ordered the DSW Pro 500 on Amazon and just got it tonight and realized they sent me the 550wi instead. I have read a lot of reviews about how great the 500 is, but the reviews aren't as great for the 550wi. I plan on having this wired, so the wireless is not too important to me. My concern is, is there a difference between these two other than the wireless? I noticed that the 500 is more expensive on Polk's site. I want to make sure that I am getting the product I paid for and if the 550wi is not as good, then I need to return it asap. Please help!

Thanks,

As far as I know the only difference is the wireless capability. Looking at the specs they look identical. I have not spent a lot of time with wireless subs but from what I heard of the 440wi at the lone star audio fest I liked it. If you wnat to confirm details I suggest calling Polk's excellent customer service to clarify. Otherwise why not give it a listen to see if you like it.

Thanks MADGSF!

I called Polk and they said the 500 and the 550wi were identical except for the ability to be wireless. So I hooked up the new sub tonight and it adds so much more to my system. Can't wait to get my center channel and the surrounds. Then it will be complete.

Glad to hear it, enjoy your new system!
