Jason, if I set the receiver subwoofer setting to LFE + Mains won't my front l/r channels will be reproducing LFE as well? I thought it was better to use the subwoofer exclusively because that's its job :-) and it can push more air etc., at least I think I learnt that somewhere on the forum.
It's only better if sounds better to you. LFE+ Mains just means the main speakers are also playing in full range as well as anything below the crossover is sent to the sub. There is no magic setting as we all have different rooms and preferances. I like mine with LFE+Mains sometimes. It does make your amp work harder but it can do it. The M80s play quite low, I have my crossover set to 60, sometimes even 40 and the receiver just keeps working without any problems.
Here is a
link to a quick test of all the sub settings and my findings, be sure to read all the way down as I made a mistake in the original post.
