That Chinese "yellow glue" is said to turn brown and to become conductive. Not good.
Check your photos again. The first photo, you circled a capacitor instead of the place where something (Q8?) blew up in the 2nd photo.
On that vertical board it looks like some of the yellow glue has turned brown. That's a suspicious spot.George / NJ

Once again, I agree. I see no transistor in the photo.Check your photos again. The first photo, you circled a capacitor instead of the place where something (Q8?) blew up in the 2nd photo.

Hello
Yes I did take off the transistor but for sure it's called Q8 and is seat near the mentioned capacitor (circle around) -

Ahh ok I see now. You clipped the leads rather than desoldered.
I know you say it is unreadable but could you post pictures of the transistor?
What is the model # of the Polk subwoofer, ie. PSW3000? Maybe they have the schematic or can tell you the transistor part # @SeleniumFalconGeorge / NJ

Let me contact Polk for a schematic.

By any chance are you trying to say DSW MicroPro 3000 (not micro sdw 3000) ?
Looks like there may have been a general schematic available but will that specify what the component specs are is the next question:

I have sent the schematic for the DSW series amplifiers, however there isn't a Q8.

Wonder what he clipped off that sucker

Are you sure that is from a DSW MicroPRO 3000 subwoofer? This is a photo of a DSW MicroPRO 3000:
