    Sounds like it might be defective. I've been told that polk is very easy going about exchanging problems like that for a new or refurbished one. I was told when i bought my sub that polk has a 5 year warranty on the speaker and 3 on the amp for subs.

    sounds like some serious issue with amp mostly, better unplug
    let the dealer take a look, or if the dealer is close by you can take
    it there and audition it in the showroom..
