Hey all!
I just recently purchased an HK AVR225 to replace my Onkyo TX-SR600. The HK has somewhat less features, but really blows the Onkyo away when it comes to sound, and that is why I buy a receiver right? Anyway, my only real issue is that on the HK AVR225 the crossover is non-adjustable and is set at around 100 HK according to HK. Am I missing sound by not being able to set it at 80 HZ? My speakers are as follows.
Mains- 2 RTi28's
Center- CSi30
Surrounds- 2 FXi30's
Sub-PSW303
Thanks,
Brian

Brian,
No, you'll do fine at 100, I also own the HK225 (well, my parents do) and I found the bass management sounds best w/ the center/surround set to small, the fronts to large, and the sub to LFE + LR That's just my prefrence, play around with it plenty before you stop. We also have speaker sizes similar to yours in that system.

Agreed,
while I'm not a fan of locked or fixed crossovers in receivers,this point isn't bad for the system you have.Set all speakers to small as noted above.This will yield max performance out of the system.Dan
My personal quest is to save to world of bad audio, one thread at a time.
