Took an early lunch and went to RelayVillage. I did a side by side comparison between a 335 and a 235. The volume knob needed about a 5db adjustment to get sound about even, but the subwoofer difference was huge. With the 335 the sub sounded like I expected it to. With the 235, it barely put out anything. I checked speaker settings on both receivers and they were the same. The difference was like not having a sub altogether.

I'll have to go back after work when I have more time and see if I can get the AVR235 to sound better. Maybe the 235 wasn't working right? I can always buy the 240 and if it is bad, just return it. I thought this was going to be easy.
