Also, you will not have to ship the entire sub. If the issue can not be isolated and corrected over the phone, all you have to do is unscrew the plate amp and send that in. You don't have to send the entire sub. If it was purchased under an authorized Polk dealer and it is still under warranty then it won't cost you a dime to repair besides that of shipping the plate amp. If it isn't under warranty, then sign up at Club Polk and mention that you are a member of the forum to receive a discount [I think it's 5%...not sure] on your repair costs. Either way, this should help you to get it back up and running. It's too beautiful a sub to be just collecting dust.
Thanks Tom.
I will look into that. It is a good sounding sub and to me it was expensive.
I used to play it here on the deck and was so happy with it. I replaced the 1000 with the 4000 which is more than all I will ever need here.

Polk MicroPro can take on most subs as an addition to 2-channel audio, at least in my systems. I think they would be up to any task, but I don't play movies, rap, new country, or new pop on these.
When I took it below, it was perfect. Just because some of my stuff is on the deck, does not mean it is not protected. These things cost a lot of money.
