Just ordered the BFD based on recommendations here to address my SVS boominess problem.
But I have a unique situation with the connections -
I have a Sherwood DVD player (with the DTD decoder) connected to a 5-ch preamp (no bass mgmt in 5.1 mode) for Movies. The speakers are set to SMALL with a 80Hz crossover.
For music, I have the digital out from the DVD player going to an external DAC and then connected to the pre-amp. The pre-amp's bass mgmt can then be used to select different crossovers (flat/80/120) and also control the sub-out levels.
At present, I have the sub-out from the DVD player connected to sub-in on the and the sub-out on the pre-amp connected to the SVS sub line-in. The pre-amp's bass mgmt is active only when I select the 2-ch input.
Now the questions -
1. How would I connect the BFD in this setup?
2. Can I have different crossovers (80Hz at the DVD player for movies) and FLAT (fits below the fronts -3db response) for Music with the same setting on the EQ or should I set both crossovers to 80Hz?
3. Will the DVD's bass mgmt be active when using it's digital out?
Here's a link to my setup..
