My setup is CD and C10 direct in to the speakers, I have played a movie through them and it was very quiet which would require the volume to be upped a lot.

Looking at your setup you appear to have 2 Gibraltars?!? Would that be taking the low frequencies away from the 5500's or supplementing them?
