from Hudson's Salvage Cen Summary: I found this gem at Hudson's Salvage Center with a few dings, but since it was going behind my sofa in the corner, I'd figure that it'll good enough. When I hooked it up, I forgot to turn down the gain on the sub and the gain on the receiver's subwoofer channel, and can I say WOW! This thing is clean and was shaking stuff off the walls and off the fireplace mantle. Once I finally tuned it right, it definitely kept everything smooth. It will thump if I want it to thump, or it will play as smooth and as clean as can be on even the most sensitive music. I eventually turned the speaker size setting on my Marantz SR-780 receiver for the main speakers to small to let more of the bass run through the subwoofer because the JBL HLS 810 speakers just don't produce the quantity and quality of mid-bass that I want, and the PS.10 is can do it cleanly, allowing my receiver to have more power to deliver the rest of the frequency range to the rest of the speakers. (I need to sell these speakers.) This is definitely a much better than some of the $300-500 subs that I was originally looking at. Strengths: Good, clean bass in a small package. The PS.10 can produce clean bass like a 10" but the quantity and depth like it's a 12". Weaknesses: I forgot to turn the gain down before I started to test it, and it shook up my house, but is that really a bad thing?
