Bottom Line:   
I bought the jbl pws1000 from Lazarous along with a jbl theater in a box ...amp w/satalites as well as built in sub with the satalite system(ran high out at first). *17 years later and 25 or different other powered sbwoofers through my theaters&stereos......running simotaneously with up to 3 suwoofers together along with it, from velodyne to klipsch and currently a paradigm up front with the psw1000 in surround right low pass.... *paid $245 as was floor model. The surround is 17yrs old&mint. Very durable hard working 10" and nice descrete jbl amp. Blends with tube systems and large power amps. Easy to match with other powered 10"'s and 12"'s. Blends well with Large moniters and small speakers what have you. . . sometimes with adjustments periodically as well as not so, with certain media&sometimes tracks. Large systems, rooms etc...

Bottom Line:   
I like my JBL PSW1000 with MDF body and dual input, I use with JBL home theatre amp. I think its best product from JBL (made in Canada) with power and crossover.

Bottom Line:   
I have this sub in s system with my Mackie MR8 monitors. It keeps up great!!! Looking for a second one like this now. I paid about $200 for this one, and would buy another, if at the same price. Eyerishtech@yahoo.com if anyone wants to sell theirs.

Strengths:    Very sold construction and no cheap plastic grill!!

Weaknesses:    Sometime I notice a wind noise from the port, but that is just normal at low bass

Bottom Line:   
I have had this sub from day one, and I think it is awesome!!!! I have used it at MSU parties and for home use and it is loud and clear. I only wish it had rubber surrounds because in time it will start to crack. When I was using it at a party at MSU, the only thing I was worried about was the amp getting too hot. It never failed but all I did was turn the gain down a bit and it was good for 16 hours straight at almost 1/2 volume and more!!! I want to upgrade, but I don't know to what and at what price I want to spend

Strengths:    Great bass. Quick response despite the woofer size. The grill is wood, not cheap plastic!

Weaknesses:    none really.

Bottom Line:   
This sub was bought in 1996 and I'm still using it today. I have it set up in a 10'x14' room in the corner. I use it in conjunction with the Energy Take 5 home theatre kit and it sounds GREAT. Never had any problems.
