Setup Question (Secondary S/W?)

I have another couple of questions about tweaking my setup...

Here is what I am currently running in my home theater, which is in my living room:

TV: LG OLED C9 65"
AVR: Denon AVR-x4500h
Center: Klipsch RP-504c
Front: Klipsch RP-8000f
Surround Side: Klipsch RP-400m
Surround Back: Klipsch R-41m
Height: Klipsch RP-500sa (on top of the 8000f speakers and upward firing.)
S/W: SVS PC-2000

I have 2 questions..

1. I have my setup with the front speakers set to small and making full use of the S/W. With the power of these speakers, should I be using LFE+Main? My assumption is no, to leave them set as small and have s/w just do its thing.

2. I have an old old s/w in my garage from my previous speaker setup. Its part of the q-line set from SLS, SLS qg5000,Its a 200w woofer. Should I add this to my setup to add a second s/w or is that silly since it is not as good as the SVS PC-2000?

Thanks guys.

Just call it a sub rather than s/w :) Setting to LFE+Main is more a preference thing, some like that thickening/overlap of bass. Experiment.

I'd probably pass on using the HTIB sub and concentrate on setting up the PC2000 as best as possible.

1. Small and LFE only yes.

2. No it would only mess up what the SVS is doing.

1). No. Just use LFE.
2). Leave the other one in the garage, or put it in a different room. The little sub will hold the big one back, and the phase relationships will be different and will likely just be a mess.
