Right now my current setup is cs1, monitor 40's, and monitor 30's in the rear with a velodyne vrp1000, I like the velo but I don't think its doing it for me does anyone have any recommendations that would go good with my current setup?

    I feel as though it is lacking in deep bass and distorts to easily, since I have bought it I have moved and the area where I use it substantially bigger then my old house I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it but I imagine it would.

    well, you can buy another bigger sub that will push more air and play louder or you can buy one like you have and stack them, stacking has advantages and you can get a 6db booste by corner loading the stack over twice as loud.

    Subs are not that easy to lug around, there is an old trick where you put the sub in your listening position put on some bass tracks then crawl around on the floor (near the walls) and see where it sounds best. Then move the sub there.
