Hello
I am new to this forum but here goes.
I recently purchase a Polk Audio Sub Woofer PSW202 only to find that it keeps blowing the 2 AMP fuse. I tried the unit with and without my receiver connected and the result is the same. This is a 2002 model, is there any chance that they had a problem with this model?
Any idea what the repair bill would be to have a tech repair it?
Thanks for your help/suggestions.
Lon

    I have the psw202 amp and have similar problems of the fuse blowing immediately upon plugging in.

    Manual says nothing about a fuse and I can find nothing on the speaker that looks like a fuse.

    Hello,
    The fuse is internal, on the other side of the input plate. But, if the fuse is blown that means there's a problem with the amp and just replacing the fuse won't solve it. Best to contact Polk's CS at 1-800-377-7655 or polkcs@polkaudio.com.
    Regards, Ken
