Well i think it is more the fact i have never used one before. So setting it up could be a problem, as far as volume matching. Plus may have to do with the source CD's...as i may feel that i need to just jump up and turn it down.

I gather you don't like the Klipsch products. I looked at the Velodyne impact 12 but did not like the speakers connections.
I'm not looking to spend more then $350 for this.
I'm not looking for massive overkill bass. However and for what ever reason, be it the room, of the fact of the 12" front fireing speaker in the Polks, there is a difference in the bass.
I'm just looking to replace what "I" feel is missing, nothing more.
