Alex, you didn't clearly state which of the settings that you're actually using. If you set the M80s "small" and LFE to the sub alone(generally suggested), then the M80s don't have to be burdened with any of the low frequency effects which are occasionally present during movies(this isn't regular "bass") and the sub which is designed to handle them better will do the job. In addition, the regular bass to the M80s would be rolled off below the selected crossover frequency(e.g., 80Hz), usually at 12dB per octave, and sent to the sub instead. If the M80s are set "large" and LFE to both the sub and mains, the M80s will attempt to play the LFE(and regular bass)within their ability, down to the lower limits of their frequency response in the particular room location being used.
