    That is old school. I don't recall seeing one like that before.

    Can you not modify the pins that attach the grill to the sub and recloth it? I ask that because there is a million in one chance that a replacement grill would be available for that sub.

    That looks like a sub that came with one of Polk's old 5.1 systems. Have you hooked it up to see if it works?

    Good job. As I thought, it's part of an old 5.1 system that requires the proprietary power source to use. OP, that means you cannot use it.

    Jesse, looks like it takes a standard IEC connection and high level inputs... It should work with any receiver.

    Those are outputs. The audio input is one of those multiple pin jobs.

    Looks like F1nut nailed it. Here is a pic from the Ebay link. What was Polk thinking?

    Polk offered a number of those systems years ago as a solution for an easy to set up home theater rig.

    FWIW I think a new cheap sub to your doorstep would cost a tad bit more than a decent grill from Ebay. I know the PSW10's were only 99.00 years back. Happy Holidays

    This may help but to look at the pictures you must ba a member at audiokarma. That us a db25 connection. The whole thing might of been pretty expensive.

  • Thanks, everyone, great feedback and yes I think the audio in is a serial port - just wanted to see if it was worth it - thinking a PSW10 might suit better
    Pretty much got it free - and audiokarma - not sure - I think I stopped by there first
