Yep. I'm in the so-called teen room of the hotel and I've been hogging the only PC. I have a bunch of teens sitting around me on the couches probably waiting for me to get off. But they haven't said a word and I'm not budging .

Any of the DD subs by Velodyne come with a remote which lets you adjust settings.

Velodyne was one of the first companies to implement DSP into their subwoofers. I have a DD-18 with a remote but I have to admit that I don't use the remote very often. It is handy when calibrating or when switching between settings for music, action movies, jazz, theatre etc.

Han,
After almost a year of tweaking, I've settled on a 40Hz cross-over in my Denon and 600 for movies and most music. While this leaves a 35Hz gap in my surrounds, I haven't found it to be a problem. I enjoy the "tight" sound of the 600 when it is crossed over this way.
I've found that this setting works for all movies in my environment but not necessarily music. I find I have to very often tweak the cross-over settings depending on the music I'm listening to.
Regardless of the setting, the 600 blends in beautifully with all speakers. thanks for that. I haven't thought about going as low as 40Hz ('course I have the 500 not 600). I'll play around with it some more. I like the sound that I have now, but at times, it can be a little boomy. I've been trying out the demo disc from AVS "HT Demo" thread. Will post my comments in a different thread.
