No bass from sub

My system is about 4 years old. I have 2 Polk RT1000p front speakers, CS245 center channel, 2 Polk Mseries surround and a Velodyne CT80 powered subwoofer.
I recently bought a new pioneer VSX-D912 and can't seem to get any bass at all. The lowest setting for crossover on the reciever is 100. My 2 fronts have a built in sub.
I am getting really confused with all the connection choices I have. My receiver has a pre-amp outlet to the sub, which I am currently using. Then there is controls on the back of the sub, that I have no idea what they are for. I set my speakers to small and yes to a SW.
If anyone out there can help this noob, I would surely appreciate it.

    No starting two threads... This was the proper place to post your question, but since I already posted a reply over in Basic Wiring Edit out your opening post here so this one dies...

    Two parallel threads only confuse matters...

    No apology needed... A fair number of newcomers do it mostly because they are not expecting replies as fast as they generally come around here...

    UNfortunately your posts caught my eye, but I'll try not to screw your rig up too bad... ;)
