Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Stereo Crossover setting for a Sub

I hate to play devil's advocate here, but I think Rel is advising the right thing for a pure music system. No matter how much I tweak the crossover freqs and sub levels, I still prefer the sound when I have few crossovers as possible between me and the music. Parking the subwoofer down at where the main speakers roll off does the least "messing around with the sound" and would probably be my preference for music.

Trouble is that for some reason I also much prefer movie playback with a traditional HT setup -- 80 or 100 Hz crossover, speakers set to small, bass management via the receiver, yadda yadda.

Don't write off what Rel is saying, but as everyone else on the board is saying remember it isn't the only way to operate; try 'em both and see which you prefer.
