Hi,

After years of not caring about subwoofers, I finally got onboard after hearing a modest one on a Polk system that we got for Kathy's living room flat panel TV. This is a combo system with small table mount speaker cluster and a modest bluetooth wireless sub. It's a MagniFi Miini

Hearing the sub made me wonder what the Onkyo receiver/amp in my living room might sound like with a sub. I've been running it as a 5.0 system for 15 years. I have a friend who used to work for Polk so I asked him. He said he likes the largest one. The HTS 12. 200W RMS, 400W peak. OK, fine! My Onkyo has a Subwoofer output spigot, so easy peasy.

Not a huge difference on CDs so far, but movies with 5.1 or more...Wow. We watched "Hook" a few nights ago and John Williams' score was HUGE.

So, how do we feel about subs?
