I have a new receiver the Pioneer 1120 and when I'm running the auto setup it wants to know if I have THX speakers. So if I tell it yes I do and I have RTi speaker will it adversely affect my speakers or their sound?

My speakers are RTi8, FXi3, CSi5, and HSU VTF-1

    NO, the THX setting is fine.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    It just sets the crossover to 80, and sends all 80hz and below to the sub...
    it's nothing special.

    That was kind of what I was expecting. So it's probably the way to set up just about any HT speakers unless your sub is lacking and your main speakers produce bass real nicely.
