    Not sure about the others but the 505 has a pretty good rep around here. It is a budget sub that you can get on newegg rather cheap. Most say it is great for HT but not as much for music. I am sure some others will chime in with opinions on the others.
    Front - RTiA5's
    Rear - RTiA3's
    Center - CSiA4
    Sub - PSW110

    Thanks Packetjones i heard the same thing about the PSW505.I dont really want to throw a monkey wrench in the topic at hand but i just realized i can also get a DSW600 refurbished from Polk ebay or i have a friend who can get me a Baby Boomer Pinnacle Sub pretty cheap also.So i really am going to pull the trigger on something soon but i need help from you guys.Hope to hear some feedback or responses too help me.

    Fronts-RT800i's
    Rears-RT600i's
    Center-CS400i
    Sub-None At the present moment

    Thats why im asking .

    the PSW1000 is a very fine sub for music. For home theater it is a monster but it bottoms out ~30 Hz. If Polk could make the same sub but goes lower, it would be a winner.

    Thank you Genjivn great info.I am most likely leaning towards the PSW1000 so far but i was also still wondering if anyone can tell me how the PSW650 is For both Movies & Music.It the only sub that no one has commented on.if someone can let me know about this last sub & also The Pinnacle Baby Boomer Sub & the DSW Pro 600 i can decide from there.Thanks hope to hear from more people in the near future.

    I've had both the psw505 and 1000.

    The psw505 I have had the most time with and took me about 3weeks (maybe 40hours) of listening to place it right. Once I got it where I could hear sub threw out the room it was amazing (it was my first real subwoofer). the subwoofer for some reason sounded better as it had more time on it. only issue I had was a little port noise. I mainly listened to music and I dont consider this subwoofer to be boomy but conpared to the 1000 it is. the psw1000 is much louder and clearer then the psw505.


    just my opinion.
