[QUOTE="OakIris, post: 3390061, member: 580426"] I haven't tried turning off the sub. To my ears, the system sounds as if all of the bass has been diverted to the sub; the tweeters are definitely harsh, sibilant, the whole system sounds bright. Too much treble energy, no depth, no fullness. I got the JVC HU because I wanted HD capabilities, and the Polk speakers because I like warm sound (most of my home equipment is built around tubes) so that is why I am really disliking the sound. I think the tweaks suggested by all the good folks here will greatly improve the sound. Holly [/QUOTE]
