Can anyone please explain TRIM settings and or guide me to a link where I can do some reading to better understand it.
Currently my ep500 is set to remote trim and bypass on the crossover. Volume is at 8-9 o'clock.

Trim depends on room size and is meant to help the in-room response in smaller rooms. It should be set Flat unless your room is on the small side. If I win the drawing, I'll be setting mine to Half or Full since my living room is only 12'x13'.

I have the same dilema...a small room.
I will try out your recommendations and take it from there.
Thanks,

Tarun,
Don't use Remote Trim at all (it is for future applications with Axiom electronics that will emable remote adjustment of subwoofer levels). The Trim setting should be at Flat, unless you want to add a bit of "kick" to the bass output in the 35-Hz region. Moving the Trim to Half applies 3 dB of boost at 35 Hz. Setting it to Full adds 6 dB or boost at 35 Hz.
This is covered in the Axiom Quick Setup Guide that should have been supplied with your EP500. Leave the crossover setting at Bypass (you are setting the crossover in your receiver/processor). Your volume setting sounds about right.
