So was back home and went into the closet and found a pair of these:

http://www.polkaudio.com/homeaudio/specs/recent/monitor5/

It needs 20-125W per channel.

Only spare subwoofer I have on hand is a Klipsch ProMedia 2.1 sub. It can power 2 35w satellites. Would there be any benefit in swapping the satellite for the Polks? They seem a bit old. I might also have a spare receiver lying around that was used with the speakers. Which would be more preferable: ProMedia with the Polks as satellites or just the Polks by themselves. Thanks.

edit: Realized I got the wrong model.

Polks themselves. The Klipsch come with a shitty amp. Better to use a receiver or amp.
 
They seem like nice speakers. Get a good, powerful integrated amplifier for ~$100 and you should be set.
 
They are nice speakers. I have the Monitor 10B. Pretty sweet pair.
