Hi all, I finally got my sub yay :) at a super price of around $275US at local shop for boxing day today also picked up furniture and ski boots haha, shopping spree almost broke but happy. One question how do you properly calibrate the phase switch and volume controls on the PWS350, I've got RT600i's (front), CS245i(center), RT10's (rear) and now a PWS350. Anybody know how to set it up without a calibration disc? *no money*

Thanks for all the help guys, cya later!

    Really, you just have to keep messing with it and listening carefully, until you get it sounding the way you like. It seems that unless you have the sub a long way from your front speakers, the phase switch usually works best at 0. There's some good placement and setup advise on the Polk FAQ page.

    thanks even without calibrating the sub it really shakes the house. It actually shook the water tank upstairs into ripples when I watched swordfish and it wasn't even at its max ah gotta love good quality equipment.
