If I bought this, I'd replace the bridge pup with a SD JB-4 cuz that's the only pickup for me, but what I'd like to know is how are the pots?

The pots work just fine I was really happy with it and it was a good value for the money.

These are cheap pots on a par with Squire pots. I leave mine wide open so I don't care how cheap they are.

I run a hifonics 500rms x 2 @ 2 ohms for 4 speakers and ran that for at least 5 yrs and have yet to have any issues with them. Ive overheated the amp a few times(more than likely due to poor design) but the speakers have handled it just fine and I run them hard often.Just bought a new truck and plan on installing a set in it as they have never given me issues.

I've had mine for about 6 months now. Each day sounds better than the last. Just ask seller to send you an extra tube with order for a few $ more. They were quite kind to me. Great lil amp!

What I'd seriously do is find one in the flesh and look carefully at the back. Now I bought one of them and wasn't too keen about it so I got one from another party for my shop with an equalizer For the house I looked and got a pioneer vex 51 series because its one of he last ones with stereo jacks and maybe at the older pioneer Yamaha Sony receivers and get a Pyle pro eq like I did outstanding sound Hope this helps so let me know.

I had a Peachtree 125 with the Kef Ls50 and got rid of it. While it is a good amp,the hiss coming from it (Class D amps are notorious for this) was unacceptable to me . Not the best resolution but still a good amp. I went to a Creek Evolution A50 with xlr inputs .It is more detailed ,better at imaging but it does not have the warmth of the Peachtree. Ive only played the Creek for 4-5 hours though. Still ,I think it is a better amp then the Peachtree.

I like what I read about the Polk so far. I think the price is reasonable. What do you suggest is a good receiver\amp to go along with this from Amazon? Are there any other items I need to modify for my turnatable? I just want to get a total on what I need to spend for the whole set to make it sound good?

This perfect for a beginner. As I have learned about the pick-ups. Get Fender Squier instead...I just picked one up for $30 put new strings and tuned it up. It Sound like new $300 guitar...xcheck out craigslist in your area. be surprise on the deals U find...action should be 4/64th on high and low strings. check the videos on youtube...

Besides putting a piece of metal under it which I would not pay over 100 bucks for , I would just go to a local metal yard scrap yard ... and buy a piece of 1/4 inch for a few bucks otherwise I would go to overstock dot com and buy what I did . A BC boil pot with the spigot . made for this stuff for 164 bucks but you would have to look around at them and make sure they were magnetic bottom as the one I have is not but is a great pot . That and the 1044 pot make brewing easier.

I down graded from 2 Fosgate P3's to a single sub to get a little bit of trunk space back (2006 Sentra). I think the sub sounds damn good for just one. I have it in a 1.25 sealed box, hooked up to a Alpine 500W mono amp turned only to half gain with a remote bass knob. I have nothing negative to say about the sub.

Even though I bought the Pioneers myself, I'd recommend the Polks. I love my Pioneers, so don't get me wrong. If the Polks were $200 like they are here vs $50 for the Pioneers (the current price here at Amazon), I'd say go with the Pioneers. But $100? Jump at it. Unless they're beat up or defective.

I was upgrading from stock w/ a PPI 900.4 amp and they sound great. The highs are very sharp (I would tune them down via my head unit EQ) and the midbass was a clear upgrade from the stock speakers. I would expect that the midbass would sound MUCH better if your doors were properly deadened (the single layer of Rammat wasn't enough). Overall I am very satisfied, like many in the blogosphere that have purchased the speakers. I'm selling my current car and put in some cheap stock speakers (w/o an amp, granted) and its night and day. I'd def recommend these JBLs!

Probably contact B&O.; Be ready to pay a fortune though. In my opinion, you're better off getting a new make. Klipsch is a good product & affordable. All the best

Did you ever find an alternative to the BB2001? Funny, I just bought the im600 today, and it still had the slip in it for the BB2001. I would like to buy a subwoofer for it though, so let me know :) That goes for anybody reading this, too!

Holy moly, I wish I had that problem..to choose between two companies with stellar offerings. The LS50 is exceptional, would I prefer a pair of Wilson Watt Puppies......in a heartbeat. But, as the monetary system collapses, you are probably far better off to get some acoustic instruments.

I will be honest with you. These pots are cheaply made. Save your money and buy some from Cuisinart or some other brand.

It was for me. I really like my Dayton Sub 1000 for my basement budget system. But there was too big a difference with that and my Polk PSW505 in my main system. The Sub-1200 was a big improvement. My Polk PSW505 still blows the 1200 away, but it closes the gap a bit. It's perfect for my budget system. I feel that you get a lot more subwoofer for $20 more with the 1200. If I were you though, I would get the Polk PSW505 which is on sale for $199 right now. It's a steal at that price. You do live in a studio apartment so it could be too much. With all that being said, I think the Sub-1200 is a great buy. Great sub for this price. Check out my review for more info on the Dayton Sub-1200

The PSW505 would be the best bet for the money if you can still find one. Klipsch has some design flaws with the amps on several of their subs which leads to them blowing fuses each time you turn them on. The solution? Spend $160 plus shipping to get a replacement amp and hope it doesn't blow for a few years. Even at $200 it wouldn't be worth it if you had even one amp replacement.
