I'm asking this on several different places on the net, so forgive me if you visit those too.

I just got my STF3 and amd getting my new Axiom setup to blend. I think I bottomed it out once because I had things set a little too hot. I backed off the DD LFE setting on my receiver about -10db and was able to turn the sub gain UP to about 10'olock and everything was thunderous and clean.

Does that sound right? I have never had a sub with this power and didn't know how much I could "push it" before reaching its limit. Seemed to find it a little early.

With the receiver set to 0db and the sub at a mere 9'oclock the opening starship scene on attack of the clones the sub made an UGLY "clack" sound at one point.

Any thoughts here? (I've posted at HSU, AVS and called HSU to leave a message).
