Hey guys,
I finally have my first real HT set up and working, and I've been fiddling with settings, positioning, etc.
I have the Onkyo TX-SR501 receiver and I love it, but rather than a SMALL/LARGE setting for the crossover, it has options of 60, 80, 100, 120, and 150Hz, which is nice. But this begs the question:
Considering the following speakers and their rated response, what crossover setting should I choose for the receiver?
(All are Boston Acoustics models)
Mains: CR65 rated 65Hz-20kHz
Center: CRC rated 80Hz-20kHz
Rears: CR55 rated 80Hz-20kHz
Subs: VR500 rated 27Hz-100Hz
(All responses +/- 3dB)
I have my two subs at max crossover (100Hz).
If I turn off the subs at the receiver, the CR's really put out an admirable amount of bass for their size, so I tend to believe these ratings are accurate.
Thanks for the help,
Brian
