With receivers that offer individual cross-overs for each channel, I'd love to see a test where the center channel is set to 80 Hz, the mains to 60, and the surrounds to 100. Each speaker's distance should also vary slightly as it would in a real room. Then have a 50 to 150 Hz sine sweep played in phase through each channel simultaneously, and plot what is actually being output to the sub. I have a feeling it won't be pretty.
