I need to buy the most powerful subwoofer from Polk. Hts 12 has good reviews but I would like something a little stronger and signature es12 is the perfect size for my living room. Which one will be louder and more powerful?

    Polk Subwoofer, surely you're joking.

    Hello,
    Welcome to the Polk forum. I've asked a product specialist, at Polk, to explain the differences in the two product series. Good post, by the way.

    His response:

    "The ES series is a completely different design and is the better by far of the two series.
    The new amp has almost no latency when compared to previous models and is the best sub amp we have ever made.
    They are using higher temperature woofer voice coil wire in the new woofer along with dual ports.
    The advantage of dual ports is that lowers the vent air velocity and is much quieter at higher volume levels.."
