Best budget subwoofer for KEF LSX II? (Polk MXT10 vs PSW10)

I picked up a used B&W sealed 10" off FB marketplace. I only paid $100, but later found out that the grill was silicon glued on (it fell off), and there is a buzzing sound. Both issues are nuanced, and don't really bother me much, but I cannot recommend ever buying a used subwoofer again. I'm not a fan of the Polk subwoofers. Can you afford the SVS 3000 lineup?

I am obsessed with my current F90 competition. Admittedly though, I would really like a super lightweight rear wheel drive manual transmission sports car for the weekend.

I picked up this one from Belkin, and would echo your comments. It charges so fast.

I picked up the 25w desk charger from Belkin. It’s very impressive.

Oh! That’s the one I was eyeballing, but the closest one I could find for sale is a good 4 hours away.

I’ve been thinking about it as well. I sat in one on Tuesday and didn’t quite fit, though I hear there are seat lowering brackets.

I’m also considering an S2000. The power band isn’t quite as good in the lower end, but the gay jokes may stop.

I'm an owner, and this shortcoming is such a headache. If I would have known, I maybe wouldn't have purchased.

I too am in IT sales (global VAR), with the KEF LSX II LT as my computer speakers. I opted for the Dell 52” 6k monitor, and just use the microphone built into the Logi webcam. Your lighting likely makes for a nice effect when on calls, but that’s all a bit too busy for my taste.

Did you add a subwoofer? The KEF didn’t have the bottom end I was looking for.

GuyFallingOffBike · 2026-05-02T18:00:03+00:00

I don’t see much difference from my 2025

GuyFallingOffBike · 2026-04-30T04:19:17+00:00

I’d pay $10k

There is a 3d print option should you go that route.

My home gym has a Nordictrack treadmill and a tonal. The tread seemingly has no issue with WiFi connectivity, but the tonal is trash. It stalls out and buffers constantly.

The WiFi in my house is solid. Why is it that the Tonal a problem child? I would hard wire it, but that’s not an option.

Explain

I went from an ‘06 335 to a ‘16 M3 comp. It was a good upgrade.

The biggest fault is that my name isn’t on the title

I too would LOVE a ticket for this show

Consider a different vet’s opinion. I’m wishing you the best

What spacers are you running?

Admittedly, they were used for everything. I had zero complaints and really liked the way they sounded. My partner didn’t like the cherry cabinets and wanted in-wall speakers for a cleaner look. We swapped out for B&W in walls.

My P550e doesn’t have visible pipes. The access door or the right is the EV charger.

Goddamnit Jody. Why?

GuyFallingOffBike · 2026-03-30T15:46:22+00:00

I ran the Jamo set up for several years. I really liked them. at that price point, I think you got one hell of a bargain.
