Currently, I have my processor set to "large" for front speakers and "none" for sub. The L&R outputs from the processor sends the full range signal to my SVS 16-46PC+ powered sub, which produces the bass while sending only the higher frequencies to the L&R amps/speakers.
This arrangement was necessary because of my processor's bass management limitations.
The SVS's power switch is set to "Auto". Since there is always some type of signal going to the sub, it does not shut off until I stop playing anything for awhile.
Now, this week I am expecting delivery of a new pre/proc with much more flexable bass management and will be hooking my SVS sub (crossover set to bypass) to the sub output on the new pre/proc, with all other speakers set to small. So now, the sub will only be receiving the bass signal.
With the sub power switch set to "auto", will I have a problem with it cutting off and on during a movie or musical selection that has some sections with bass and some without bass?
If you have had a problem with this, how did you solve it? I'd prefer not to leave it on 24 hours a day if possible.
Thanks in advance for your insite and suggestions!
