I've got a PSW100 that's got a bad crossover board, but otherwise in great gently used shape and would like to keep it going.

If you've got one to sell, working or not do let me know, as long as it's got a good crossover board. :)

    I discovered that to make it work I had to push up on the phase switch, and now there's a piece of Lego holding pressure on it to keep the sub working.

    Upon examining the crossover board I found not only suspect solder points on the phase switch, but what appears to be a crack on the underside of the board, crossing several circuits.

    I've entertained the thought of soldering the phase switch pins and dropping some solder on the circuits where they're cracked, but I wouldn't hold out for good results...and just putting in a working part is easier. :p

    It doesn't have any damage suggesting it was dropped, more like the switch itself, or one of the connectors was bumped.

    Still haven't called Polk customer care yet, though I know as soon as I order something (if available) I'll run across a used one for sale. :p

    Sub Fixed!! I bought a new PSW110 (Best Buy, on sale, impulse buy) and dis-liked it so much compared to the PSW100 I pulled it apart, found and fixed a six or seven broken/suspect solder joints and it works better than ever!
