So, after having such a great response from my last question, I thought I'd ask another.
Currently, I am running Monitor 70's for my mains, monitor 60's for my rears, and my new CS2 for my center channel. I would like to replace my existing sub(klipsch HTIB) with a good matching Polk sub.
Any recommendations out there.
I am running all this on a Denon AVR-891.
My HT room is not that big, but I am looking for a great sounding sub.
Thanks in advance.

    Hello and welcome to the forum. Do you have a budget in mind?

    Price would be somewhat of a factor. But, I'm looking at spending up to 6 or 7 hundred.
    When I can get the money together.

    I checked out that sub like you suggested. Looks like they don't ship to Canada where I live. I will do some poking around and see what I can find for a Canadian distributor.
    I am kind of partial to Polk though.

    Check out the PSW505 or if they carry the DSW line. Those are about the only polk subs we (or at least I) would recommend.

    The PSW505 is certainly 'the' value Polk sub. But if you have the money I'd go with this:

    if you want a good current Polk sub. Not sure what that would cost in Canada though?
