yet another crossover question (1 Viewer)

[Ricky Hustle]

I have a Yammy receiver. The crossover is 90Hz built in to the receiver, which means if a subwoofer is connected and any speakers are set to small, anything below the 90Hz goes to the sub.

I have my subs crossover dial on the back of the sub at 105Hz. I have all speakers set to SMALL, and I have the option of setting bass/sw to NONE, SUB, or BOTH. I currently have it set to BOTH. Now my question is, is this really the correct way to do things?

What frequency ranges actually travel to the mains if I have the setting on BOTH? My understanding is if I have the mains set to small, then nothing below the receivers built-in crossover of 90Hz will be sent. But now that I have bass set to BOTH, what is actually happening here? I'm just curious and appreciate any advice in this matter.

position, low bass signals from the main channels are output to both of the main speakers and the SUBWOOFER terminals.

So, if you use BOTH, it only matters if you select the LARGE position for your MAIN SPEAKERS. Since you have selected SMALL, then use the Preset (Default) position: SW

Thanks for the insight, Phil!
