I'm using the LFE output on the receiver and using the sub's crossover. The sub only comes up to 90hz, so I have that turned all the way up.
Pretty certain I have my speakers set to "Large" in the receiver setup, (but I will double check that).
Is this just too small a main speaker combined with a sub that is built for more low end? Should I be getting more from these 8" 3way Monoprice mains?
Or do I have something setup wrong? Ideas?
Thanks

Beyond checking the receiver's internal crossover (if possible set to 60 hz based on specs of speakers) I don't know what else to tell you.
50% of the sound quality is influenced by room dynamics ie floor&wall coverings, room size, the height, width, length ratios of walls AND the quality of in wall sound is can be hindered by the volume of wall cavity it is placed in. These might be influencing your sound as well, though it much more likely to be something else.
