Monitor 60,40 HELP

vid33nyc1

I just hooked up my Monitor 60s,40s,CS2 and SVS PB10-NSD to my ONK TX-SR706 and ran the Audyssey.This is what i got for the speaker config

Sub yes
front 40hz
center 40hz
surround 40hz
LPF of LFE 80hz

The LPF of LFE looks correct but should the rest of the Xovers be on 40hz?Any input would be appreciated.thanks

I think I have heard where the Onk/Audyssey is noted for this. Try it at 80 for all the speakers and see what you like best. You might be able to take the 60's a little lower than that (80hz) but again, try different freq. and go with what sounds the best to you

I'd set all the XO points at 80 hz myself. I've messed around with the XO points on my Onkyo 606 quite a bit, and I keep coming back to 80 hz. It's just what sounds best on my setup.

Leave the LFE at 80, and adjust all of your speakers to 80 and see how you like it then.

Looks like a pretty decent system you've put together there. Make sure you let us know how you like it once you get some listening time in.

I ran the Audyssey again and this time i made sure i turned off Loudness plus before hand.I left the Xovers the same:60,80,80,80.I must say i am REALLY enjoying this setup.PB-10 goes well with the monitor speakers.I have a question though.Should i remove the grills off the speakers?I just picked up the DVE HD Basics bluray and they recommend removing them so the sound doesn't have to go threw another set of material.

Hi vid.

I always remove the grills.

My speakers are set as follows:
M50s - 60Hz
CS - 60Hz
M40s - 60hz
LM1s - 80Hz
Sub - 60 Hz

This is what sounds best to me with my system in my home theater (LOL). I recommend you keep on adjusting your sytem until you hit that sweet spot.
