I bought this one for very cheap in CC for 300.00. what a good deal. :D
What is the difference between PSW650 and PSW650HG? Are they same, the specs looks like same.

    could the added 'HG' possibly be a signature to denote a psw650 that was originally packed with the RM7600 HT package, for tracking reasons? did you buy this open box?

    HG= High Gloss, maybe?? To match the RM7600?

    Or are they all high-gloss?

    Yes the HG stands for high gloss. Polk made 2 Psw 650's in the begining. One was standered black vinyl and the other was the High Gloss for the Rm. They dropped the Vinyl model after about 1 year. Must have been a cost issue. HG looks better anyway.

    Mine is only PSW650 without the HG and it's MDF wihtout the gloss. You got a pretty good price. I paid $750CDN for mine 2 and a half years ago when it first came out.

    i wonder if they are going to replace the psw- 650 with something biger and better for the lsi series i know they need to match a sub with the lsi speakers, at lest i hope they do, some thing like a duel side fireing 12" 800 w sub thats high gloss black or cherry

    I think the PSW550 is what they are "matching" with the LSi series. It's only $100 less than the 650 ($550 for 550) and it has a rather "small" 8" driver with 100w RMS.

    Expensive sub for such a small driver ;) hehe
