Paradigm Titans/PDR-10 Crossover. (1 Viewer)

[Chris.M]

Hey guys,

You guys have more experience than this than I do. What should I have it set to? I'm not sure how low the Titans go, and I'd like it to smoothly crossover onto the sub. I have it set at ~100 on the sub, and 100 on my Onkyo reciever.

Thoughts?

You've got double crossovers. Turn your crossover on the sub all the way up. A crossover is a gradual slope not a brick wall so whatever your receiver is sending to the sub above 100Hz is getting filtered again by the sub's filter.

Have you tried crossing over at 80Hz?

 

[Chris.M]

I have the crossover set to teh max on teh PDR10, and then at 100 on the reciever. I'll give 80 a try.

Can't hear much of a diff. How low do those titans go? I'm thinking I was just going to leave the whole upper range to the Titans, and let anything below 120 go to the sub.

Titans are rated down to 60Hz. When you raise your sub above 100hz you are getting into the range were human hearing can localize bass. http://www.paradigm.com/Website/Site...manceSpecs.htm

I've used the Titans with both 100 and 80Hz x-overs and found that they worked well with 100Hz because they like to be crossed a bit higher.

I have the old Titans. Not much dif between 80 and 100. Listen for vocal clarity in the presence of strong bass, and then decide which is best for you.
