with my new HK335 is there a way I can use the xoverin the HK to pass all the LFE through to my rears and use the speaker cable line in?
I'm trying to clean up the front . The sub kinda throws it off. Also trying to make the HT (fronts, tv and gear) not be a massive focal point.
If it is possible and you have either tried it or currently have it this way how did/does it sound ?

Thanks

    You shouldn't notice where the bass is coming from...When I had my little 8" Velodyne, I knew where the bass was coming from...not good

    now that I have the SVS, eveything blends real nice...the way it should

    In speaker setup you might try LFE = Sub + Surrounds instead of L&R. It has that option on my 235. Don't know if that will clean up your soundstage though.

    Combo rig:

    Onkyo NR1007 pre-pro, Carver TFM 45(fronts), Carver TFM 35 (surrounds)
    SDA 1C, CS400i, SDA 2B
    PB13Ultra RO

    Oppo BDP-83SE

    bass management is the fly in the hometheater ointment.
    i don't think anyone has a true, universal solution.

    THX certainly doesn't. They may think they do, but they don't. :(
    Trust your ears, not a "Standard".

    and yes, Ron is right-on about the 235, and it pertains to the 335 as well.
