I recently purchased a new receiver, an STR-DA4ES, so far I am enjoying it. I have been trying to calibrate the audio levels with the VE disc and found some interesting behavior. All of the discrete channels, I am only using 5.1 right now, calibrate one at a time except the sub channel. When the VE disc gets to the SUB channel, there is bass coming from the front two speakers. I have the front speakers set to large, is the correct? There are numerous settings on the 4ES regarding the sub and the crossover and LFE mix levels, I have tried messing around to see what effect changing things around has. Setting the front speakers to small, no matter what the crossover freq is set to eliminates the bass from the front channels. Other settings, when the fronts are set to large really seem to make no difference. Should I just leave the speakers as large, the fronts are Polk RT2000i, and calibrate with the additional bass they provide or set them to small and set the front cross freq as low as it can go? Additionally, when I use the receivers internal test tone for the sub channel, the bass also comes from the front speakers when they are set to large.
Thanks in advance.
