Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Stereo Stereo receiver for M3's?

Hey fellas. I bought a SVS SB-1000 pro to work with the M3's. What should I set the low pass frequency and phase to? Also, the AD-18 is awesome. And the M3's bass is way better. It really does well for a bookshelf speaker. Clearly my Pioneer receiver wasn't set up properly because there was a drastic difference as soon as I got the AD-18 up and running.

Forgot to ask - Are there any settings in the AD-18 that I have to deal with. I do not understand the user manual at all.

Thanks

Cam, I don't see any user-definable settings for that amp.

Where is the sub relative to the M3s? How far and are they all in the same plane?

Yo, dude. My left speaker is on the wall above the door to the left of the clock, and the right speaker is above the wall hanging.

My sub is in the corner below my TV.

And sorry but what do you mean by "are they all in the same plane?"?

Thanks

Same plane just means that they're all on a two-dimensional doubly ruled surface spanned by two linearly independent vectors. Like if they all abut the same wall.

Set the phase to 0 degrees.

Set the cross-over to 60Hz. Any higher and the bass may become over-powering in that room.

Remember there's an app for that sub so you don't have to get your ass out of bed. There's a lot of fiddling you can do with that app. Have fun!

Thanks for the info. It is currently set to 80 as per the suggestion of 80-100 (tinkering to my preference) by Andrew at Axiom. I will give 60 a go.

Let us know which is better.
