Jake,

I did exactly that, manually, when the xo is set to 80, I actually had to turn the volume to MAX on the ep350 to get decent bottom end. I get more bottom the higher I set my xo, but the volume just isn't there. If I start to crank the avr volume to louder levels (certainly no where near extreme) the mids and highs start to overpower the EP350. When I reconnect the old JBL and got the bottom end back, then I knew something was wrong with the EP350. No way this cheap JBL should be outperforming a 350.
