Nice article on your friend Ken. It would be fun to shadow him in his shop/studio for a day and listen to his life experience stories. Reminds me of a Wendell Castle or Wharton Esherick type of artisan.
You can see what looks like the Greene and Greene influence on the front door.

Re: Can’t choose “Off” or “None” at my receiver
Is the low pass dial on the back of the PSW350 set all the way up to maximum and the volume control set about half way? If you do that I think everything below around 160Hz from the front left/right speakers is played through the PSW350 subwoofer and is managed by the filter in the subwoofer.
The RM2300 satellites have a -3dB level of between 130Hz and 140Hz.
Since you had the system working before with an LFE cable to the subwoofer like most systems work now, you could just go back to that with all the satellites set to small and live with it that way. If it's possible in your receiver you can set the crossover frequency as high as possible to better match with the satellites rather than using a traditional 80Hz setting. It's possible your receiver only has internal speaker setting logic where sound is output from a subwoofer using the LFE connection when at least some of the other speakers are set to small. I'm not sure about that model though or whether it has the option of selecting a crossover setting above or below 80Hz.

Dave and Sarah operate a B&B where they live, very close to where the Appalachian Trail crosses South Mountain. Dave has created an outdoor sculpture path around the area where he lives and visitors can walk around it as it weaves over a stream and through the woods.

Re: THE joke thread
A friend recently visiting Chile told me this joke about Argentinians. I take it there's a rivalry there.
How do Argentinians kill themselves?
They climb up their egos, and jump off.
Waffles??

Re: Polk Reserve R200
Personally I'd get the receiver and add an amp to it later if I wasn't happy with the stereo performance with just the receiver. Another option is to get a second SVS subwoofer to have a stereo pair.
The Denon 6800 has outputs for four subwoofers that can be managed separately which is a great feature to have.
Something like the Parasound A23+ would be of benefit for amplification, but there are better amps if you wanted to spend more. Parasound has a full range up to the $30,000 a pair JC100 monoblock amps:

Re: You’re doing it wrong…
The double trailers at night hauling furniture and US mail for me were the worst of the worst. They never lifted in our construction zones and a highway cone was often all that kept us from becoming another statistic. And knowing what normally sits behind those wheels made things even scarier. That's one aspect of my working life I do not miss.
