The back volume control on the LSR310S appears to be one of those continuously variable ones (see below). Does it actually have steps along the way from –∞ to Max?
At least for me, it would be hard to find the position where the output of the two mains matches that of the LSR310S without performing measurements. The midway points on the main speakers and the subwoofer are likely to be quite different output levels.
I'm glad that regular polarity seems to produce the most bass for you, as that is definitely what I would expect to have happen.
If you happen to have a rectangular room, I would try and use a room mode calculator to work out where the low-frequency nulls are located. If you happen to be sitting close to one of the nulls when monitoring, your bass can sound a bit weak in that frequency range. It's a rather pronounced effect, and will skew your perception of the bass that's present in your mix.
