I have had this home theatre setup with 4 Polkaudio RT2000P s ( I got
a good deal on them )

Till recently I did not have a good receiver and I was not seriously
into listening. Last week I got a Denon 3805 receiver.

One thing I noticed is that the powered subwoofer is barely audible,
no matter if I use the subwoofer out of the dolby digital OR the front
speaker preamp out. I tried this with all my 4 speakers, and I dont
think all of them have gone bad. Not only that though these speakers
were purchased some years back, I have barely used them.

I read some reviews that said these speakers have really powerful
powered subwoofers.

Could you pl share your experience if you happen to have one of these
( or any similar polk speakers like 2000i )

Thanks for reading

Have you tryed the usual stuf, eg setting speakrs to small, going thru
setup to tell your system you have a sub, messing with crossover level,
playing stuff with lots of bass? Dunno......maybe check the sub cable,
or sub output level or sub level on reciever. Can't help U much but I try
