Have yamaha receiver 7.1 surround rxv2500
have one pair polk sda speakers about 15 years old-working great
Also have one pair polk r 30s not hooked up

Thinking of getting Polk PSW303 Black
Powered Subwoofer and Polk RM6750
Six-piece, 5.1 Channel Home Theater Speaker System

If I go for the above how should I hook up the R30's to my receiver? Would I in essence get 7.1 surround sound or should I buy 2 more satellite speakers and use the r30's up front with the SDAs.
Any help would be appreciated as I don't know a lot about this stuff
Thanks

Am I making a mistake with the polks?
Want to spend about 500 but could probably go up to a 1,000
thanks

Not a bad choice and I don't believe you are making any mistakes, but have you listened to other speaker systems, besides Polk?

thinking of switching the subwoofer to Velodyne DPS-10 would that fit in?
I'm hearing polk subwoofers aren't that great
Thanks

I would do the same thing. Velodynes make great subs and are much better than Polks.
