Was wondering how to set up a seperate sub when using full range speakers for the front L/R and center (ones with built-in powered subs). My front 3 speakers are rated to 19Hz (probably more like low 20's though). The sub I am looking at is rated to 14 Hz.
When adding a sub how should I set my receiver settings? If I choose small for the fronts (currently have it to large since I dont have seperate sub at this point) wont I be losing the benefits of the built-in subs? Should I lower the crossover setting on my receiver?
This is rather confusing becasue I dont want to waste the full range abilities of my speakers but would like to add some extra impact for movies. Any suggestions?
My setup:
Denon AVR3803
Front L/R Def Tech BP2006TL
Center Def Tech CLR2300
Surrounds Def Tech BP2X
