OK, does anyone actually use those packaged little rubber feet that come with the bookshelf speakers? Are they just supposed to protect the finish on the bottoms of the speakers or what? Full disclosure: I'm not a believer in speaker tweaks, so if the are supposed to lessen resonance or something I may need convincing.

Please re-read my posts. The 5 1/2" speakers are in the bookshelves NOT in the sub.The only time I've seen an under water bridge is when I dropped my dentures in the sink!

Guess another way to put my question is this - Does an 8" speaker give a better blend from the 5 1/2" speakers in the bookshelves? Just seems that 5 1/2" to 10" or 12" is quite a jump to have a nice blending of the overall sound.

I understand this is a very generalized question but... I have a system which is used for music only (Marantz 4023, Klipsch bookshelves). Room is about 15x17. Listen to primarily 60s and 70s music (Beatles, Stones, Moody Blues, acoustic pop like Simon and Garfunkel, John Denver, etc.). Anyway, I'm wondering if a smaller sub like a Martin Logan Dynamo 300 would work better in this setting than something like a Polk PSW110? I have the latter from a previous home theater. Don't listen at high levels. Just enough to fill the room well. I guess you could say I'm not really looking for the "sub" as much as the "woofer". What are the general thoughts on smaller subs for music?
