Installing repaired sub hardware do-it yourself or professional help?

sobyx

So I received by mail a repaired sub PSW303 hardware unit using my Polk warranty (thank you Polk) but the wooden box is configured in such a way that it is difficult to reinstall the wires (cannot get hands in there). I was able to just pull the wires to remove the components when I sent the unit to Polk initially, but now it seems impossible to hook the two wires again to the wooden box. Should I try to remove the sealed blocks inside the box to try to get the wires in there or should I just take my repaired unit and wooden box to my Polk dealer to have them do it?

Hello,
The easiest approach would be to remove the woofer from the other end of the cabinet. You would remove the grille cover and look at the 8" woofer. Where you would normally expect to see the mounting screws you’ll see a decorative gasket that hides the screws. Use a pair of pliers to remove the gasket and expose the screws. Then take out the screws and you should have complete access to the woofer's terminals.
Send an email to polkcs@polkaudio.com with your address and we'll send a replacement gasket.
Regards, Ken

Thank you, I didn't imagine those gaskets hid the screws, I will try that!
