Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners Subwoofer crossover questions

Yes. Forget you ever saw a sub crossover. They are really intended for use with older non-AV receivers. Some of the latest sub intros don't even have a crossover since AV receivers have pretty much taken over.

You just have to get the crossover out of the way by either disabling it or turning it up to the highest possible frequency.

>>1)If I set the fronts to “large” and they now get “the full frequency range of that recording”. What frequencies does the sub get?

Oh, this is an ugly little question and seems to be receiver dependent. On my HK it seems you can specify a mains crossover frequency even if the speakers are in "Large" and the sub will receive everything below that frequency.

The most common thing is that the sub would get nothing from the mains if they were set to large. On the HK you can choose between SUB LF and SUB LF+L/R -- the second setting includes bass from mains (L/R) even if they are set to large.
