    The good news is, it lasted 14 times longer than the psw150

    14 years is a pretty good run for an active sub!

    I still have a Sound Dynamics powered sub running in a bedroom rig. That I bought brand new in 1997!

    I have a ACI Titan from the late 90s as wel, but it sold ID for around $1000 usd, which would be about $1700 now, and it still sounds amazing (knock on wood😬). But that’s a different beast from a $200 Chinese sub…
