I don't think I could live life without a subwoofer of some sort...the first $550 I had to my name went to a Cerwin Vega 15" sub that I integrated into my super duper awesome Aiwa mini system.

They aren't kidding about the picture thing either...the more pics you can supply, the more helpful they can be. When you get ready to tackle your C4000, I'd recommend starting a dedicated thread and let them work their magic. Or I guess at least help you work yours.
