I just got a Pioneer VSA-AX10I Amp (Euro version of 49TXI) and am not sure what to set my speakers to. The speakers are Mordaunt Short THX Select ones, the left and rights have subs built in and I have matching di poles correctly placed at the back of the room. I currently have the subs set to THX (No volume control possible on the sub in this mode) and the amp setting at +0.
Should these speakers be set to Small or Large? Is an 80Hz crossover correct?
My other question concerns 6/7.1. The room has to the letter layout for THX Ultra/Select but Ultra 2 asks for 2 speakers at the rear. There is only a couple of feet space behind the listening chairs although there is 20-25 feet between the rears, is 7.1 worth it or would 6.1 be better. One point to remember is this speaker range does not have bookshelf speakers.
Sorry to ask so many questions (MCACC made the system sound worse!)
