Home Theater Installation Recommendations

essaabbas

Hello everyone,

I am going to install my home theater system very soon and I really appreciate your advice here.
I will be using an audio receiver (Onkyo TX-NR727) with the following 5.1 combination?
• QTY-1 Subwoofer PSW series PSW505
• QTY-2 Monitor 70 II (Front R+L)
• QTY-1 Polk CS2 (Central)
• QTY-4 Monitor 30 II (Surround)

The questions are:
1-What are the recommended crossover settings?
2-What size (small/Large) of speakers should I select?
3-On the back of the PSW505, what is the recommended low pass frequency setting?
4-On the back of the PSW505, do I have to connect any wires to the speaker in or speaker out?

Thanks in advance!

1) 80Hz
2) Set all speakers to small
3)
4) Not if you're running an RCA cable from your AVR to the sub.

Set,all the speakers to small, the receiver will take care of the crossover settings. Set the 505 to 150 the Onkyo will take care of that and no speaker connections as long as you are using the subwoofer out to the LFE input on the 505.
