Hi Polks,

I am a newbie.. I have puchased Rti12 for front with CsiA6 and FxiA6 series. I got denon AVR-987 receiver in the matrix. Just wanted help with subwoofer. I got Polk DS Pro 600 from Frys but some what not satisfied. Please suggest suitable sub. Will PS505 is the best or Velodyne 10" DSL-3750 will work? or suggest any other good combination for RTi12

Thanks

    Since the Rti12 could handle 2 channel music on there own, is the sub for HT use?

    Welcome to Club Polk. Do a lot of reading on your Denon. Use the LFE out for the sub setup, and not the speaker wire setup. Sometimes setting the sub out to LFE+ L/R is the way to fly for music, and HT.

    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks
    Ben

    I have Rti12s and Im using 2 of these:

    http://www.svsound.com/products-sub-box-plus2.cfm

    You can get by on using one but Im a bass head. Of course you should check setup as others mentioned. But if you feel that its still not performing up to your standards, take it back and go with the SVS, Epik or Elemental Designs product.
