User questions & answers

Question:	What is the crossover range?? Thanks
Answer:	If the cracks are VERY fine, the grout pen may fill them, but this does not apply to silicon grouting, which is generally used to seal the line between counter top and wall. The grout pen is meant for mortar grout.
Question:	can the psw111 surport 220V power
Answer:	Good question. For most grouts it is permanent. However some customers try it on "sealed" grout and it is not able to adhere with the grout, therefore it is temporary.
Question:	I need instruction on how i hook up my polk psw111 8" subwoofer to my yamaha r-n602 reciever. please
Answer:	This product will cover but to me it is just a temp fix if you wash the area often
Question:	They don't have any pictures of the back. Is it powered
Answer:	It all depends on how many layers you apply, I did 3. I have used 4 pens for my kitchen which is roughly 12 by 18ft. Hope this helps

User questions & answers

Question:	Pictures for the 15" sub doesn't look right. Does anyone know if the pictures are legit
Answer:	You are correct. As of the time of this response, the picture for the 15" model is actually the picture of the 6.5" model. The correct picture can be found on Acoustic Audio's website at http://www.acousticaudio.net/psw15.html.
Question:	I currently have a onkyo receiver hooked to a 5.1 surround by LG..my sub is not aux hookup only speaker cable so i must get a powered sub. Would this
Answer:	Yes you can use the sub woofer with your receiver.
Question:	Does it have a three prong power plug that includes a ground connection
Answer:	No, it's just a duel plug, and no ground connection. Hope that helps. For such a small sub it hits pretty good. I have it set up in my bedroom 2 front speakers and it, and the quality is great.
Question:	I just got this today and was hoping to hook it up to the aux output of my stereo. no sound. do i have to use speaker input instead
Answer:	Make sure that your stereo is actually sending signal through your auxiliary outputs. Then make sure that your gain knob is turned up. This amplifies the incoming signal. If you still aren't getting any sound, you could try connecting a live speaker cable to the high level in. The signal will be converted to low frequency. You could use your Speaker B output on your stereo to do this. Just make sure that the B speakers are on on your stereo as well. Also make sure your subwoofer is plugged in and turned on, classic troubleshooting.

Question:	Have a 13 Jeep Wrangler does this connect to the factory stereo without any problems. I have the sub in the back but looking for additional punch
Answer:	I know this is too late, but this was an easy install in my Jeep using the factory stereo. It was an awesome addition to the Jeep, and is certainly a whole lot louder than a 6x9. Plus, you can tuck it under the seat or in the back in the rear tray. It wastes virtually no usable real estate.
Question:	Does this unit have good deep bass or more thump
Answer:	Good deep base.... although if I crank up the base on the device and adjust the radio in the car I get a little thumping.
Question:	I have 14' jeep wrangler 2dr. Will this kit fit under the seat? and do I need to get the amp to install this
Answer:	Yes we have installed many of these under the seat of the Wranglers at our retail stores. It comes with all the wringing you will need. Give us a call if you would like to bundle it with some new Kicker speaker as well. 800-854-5821 M-F 9a-5pm central
Question:	It shows the power cable and fuse does it really come with these wires or will I need an amp kit

User questions & answers

Question:	how do i connect his to a stereo if the receiver does not have a separate connection for a subwoofer
Answer:	Please contact our technical Support Team at monoprice.com
Question:	Can this be used with a home theater by connecting it to the tv with rca cables
Answer:	not 100 % but I'd think so - the would only provide bass, from say 45 hz ( low E on electric bass ) to maybe 200 hz - which would leave the rest of the sound spectrum... I suspect it'd be hard to match to the TV's internal speakers, smallish external left / right is intended and an amp for those.
Question:	What are the two other plastic pieces for
Answer:	If you're talking about the two large 'U' shaped pieces these are a floor stand that slip onto the sub and allow it to stand on its side instead of on its feet if this is the way you wish to orient it because of space considerations. Because low frequency sounds are non directional to the human ear it makes no difference which way it's oriented.
Question:	Is the 7” height with or without the rubber feet
Answer:	It's 7" counting the feet

User questions & answers

Question:	would this work to replace an infinity ts 450 subwoofer
Answer:	I've never heard the Infinty Sub, but they do seem to be similar. However, the Infinity looks to have been matched to a speaker system and as such, the tone or signature sound of this sub may not match the other speakers...not sure what other speakers you're using though...are they Infinity? This sub sounds great with the BIC DV64 towers because they are matched speakers made from the same components and materials. This sub seems to work best with receivers that are around 85 - 95 WPC. It's only an 8" sub.
Question:	How to hook this up? Do you need subwoofer output from the receiver
Answer:	I hooked mine up to a sub-woofer output. I beliieve the power to it from there is very low, like 1-3 amps. I once hooked a sub-woofer up in my car and was told then by the installer that if I did not have a sub-woofer output, I could hook it up to the left and right main speaker outputs, that this would work, but I would just need to add some kind of filter on each to allow only the low tones through. Cant remember the filters name, but sold for about $30. So I think this princible would apply to a home system as well. PS-the BIC V-80 is GREAT!
Question:	What material are the spikes made of? do i need to buy spike plates? will they ruin hardwood floors? are the spikes removable to add rubber feet
Answer:	The Actual speaker is made of wood covered had it for a few years and still not a scratch on it. The feet are removable you adjust them as the speaker sits on the floor. I have tile floor but I never move it around unless I'm dusting it off. But I don't think they would damage to hardwood floor unless you purposely do something to mess up the floor the spikes at the end have a little curviture to them. But if you purchase it you won't be disappointed the first thing I tested out was X-Wings flying around and shooting amazing base gave so much life to my cheap insignia sound bar.
Question:	does this product come with a Cable or do I need purchase the cable seperately
Answer:	You must supply your own cable; it uses a single RCA connection. Amazon has one that appears highly rated here: http://www.amazon.com/Mediabridge-Ultra-Series-Subwoofer-Cable/dp/B003FVYXY0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1371673190&sr=8-1&keywords=subwoofer+cableor you can search for: Mediabridge Ultra Series Subwoofer Cable - ( 15 Feet ) - Dual Shielded with RCA to RCA Gold Plated Pro Grade ConnectorsGood luck.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does it come with an amp
Answer:	Yest the amp itself is powered but I unnecessarily power it first with a little Sound appeal 50Wx2 amp I ordered with it also from Amazon that I had previously and it does the job very well, With a couple of small speakers it beats any soundbar or docking speaker. You do not need one. I just have it to plug my phone in.
Question:	i will be using this sub for 2 channel stereo. Do i run an additional set of speaker wire from my speakers to the high level R&L inputs of the sub
Answer:	I believe you run the speaker wire from your stere to the high level R&L inputs and the high level outputs speaker wire to the speakers you're using. But I think if you use the RCA red and white plug from your stereo to the subwoofer, u don't need to use the speaker wire. It's one or the other. I haven't been using my subwoofer do to some construction work, but I believe that's how I have it connected. Hope that helps.
Question:	I want to use this for my rear center speaker. I only have the two speaker wires coming from the receiver. How or can I use this for this purpose
Answer:	You'll get some really weird effects from a subwoofer at the rear. Generally, you want a subwoofer at the front of the room, best if near the center but not imperative. Bass is somewhat non-directional, but coming from behind will give some very strange effects. You want your subwoofer working acoustically in conjunction with your front R, L and Center speakers.
Question:	Can a 42" flat screen tv be placed on top of this cabinet? Or better yet, can it be placed under the tv
Answer:	I would strongly suggest keeping the box and tv separate. This sun is not 'shielded'. A unshielded speaker will cause electromagnetic interference and possibly damage the tv.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is it normal for the wired remote control to get smoking hot
Answer:	1/4-1/2 inch
Question:	It will fit in a vw golf mk7 spare tire
Answer:	Yes it will. You will have to turn the power down a little. I have a 4k watt amp at 1 ohm pushing about 800 watts rms to the 2 I have
Question:	How would you hook up two
Answer:	Hey Michael, that sounds like a pretty good match. You may also want to consider running the amp at 2 ohms and pulling 1000 RMS from it. At 2 ohms, you won't be quite as loud, but the amp will be running cooler and will sound better.
Question:	What all do i need to make it work
Answer:	Hey Richard, this is a good question. Hopefully the answer isn't too confusing. The SA series 8" is rated at 500 RMS, and the 10, 12 and 15" are rated at 750. Now since all Sundown subs are conservatively rated, the 8" can actually handle more than 500 watts (of high quality power in the right enclosure). If you want suggestions on the best amp to use, feel free to send us a direct message, we'll point you in the right direction.

Product description

This is an 8-Inch powered subwoofer capable of producing 60 watts (RMS) output. The subwoofer has a frequency response range of 50 to 250 Hz with a lowpass crossover filter, which can be adjusted from 50 to 150 Hz. Gain and frequency knobs on the control panel allow you to adjust the crossover filter and the power output for the optimum blend and balance of bass output with your stereo or surround speakers. The subwoofer has multiple input options, which allow it to be used with any existing stereo or 5.1 (or greater) amplifier system. For each input there is a corresponding output. High-level inputs accept a full-range signal from the amplifier's stereo speaker outputs. When connecting the unit as part of a 5.1 system, these would be taken off the Front Left and Front Right outputs in parallel to the standard pair of front speakers. The subwoofer provides its own power and includes impedance matching circuitry, so this will not reduce the power output to the front speakers or affect the overall impedance load on the amplifier. Additionally, the subwoofer has a set of right/left Line Level inputs. If using a standard stereo system, without a special subwoofer output, you can connect these to the left and right line level outputs on the amp. The subwoofer will then combine the signals to process the mono bass signal it needs to drive the speaker. If you are using an amplifier with a single mono subwoofer line level output, simply use an RCA -Inch-Inch cable to split the output and send it to the two line level inputs on the subwoofer. The subwoofer is housed in an attractive black wood cabinet that measures 13.75-Inch x 11.75-Inch x 11.75-Inch (H x W x D). The driver and a 2 3/4-Inch sound port are located on the front, covered by a black cloth speaker grill. Amplifier Power Output: 60 Watts (RMS).
