Heres my setup.
Denon 1802 Rcvr (75 x 5)
polk rti100
cs245
rt25
psw 120
Single income family man, now you understand why it takes me longer to acquire this fun stuff. Just got the RTi100's at Frys for 398 pair.
Now, I have my rcvr. to sub out using the monster cable, and the bass mgnmt is set to sub and fronts(set to large). I have tried it both ways, and i like it better with it set this way because I think the rti100's can handle it? Of course center and rears are set to small.
I know the PSW 120 is kind of small for what I have now, but when I started the rt25's were the fronts.
Any advice/help is appreciated. Thanks.

Sounds to me like you've got things under control. If you ever purchase a more powerful subwoofer, you might want to consider selling your mains for RT 800's, and then you can set those to small as well; that will take an easier toll on your receiver, and therefore make your speaks more dynamic on the whole.
Cripes, I'm wasted, someone do the guy some justice. I wouldn't have responded but someone had to, you know?

Thanks for the response. I went back to running them large and using just the sub for bass management. Its hard to tell a differnce, but when I run the sub out to the mains, its a little more boomy and i didnt liek it.

Welcome to Club Polk Jeff.
I agree that the RTi100's can handle the bass, if the amp can dish out the watts.
I just finished college and it takes me awhile to aquire equipment aswell.Graham
