Most of you guys own high end systems and i couldn't really find something on my type. So anyway here is what i need clarified from you guys.

I have the RM75 series as my HT, and i have everything set to small on the receivers sound menu. Also the settings on sub is set to 160HZ Max low pass filter for LFE. So my confusion remains here whether to set my RM75's to 80Hz crossover or the recommend 120Hz in the articles i read on this site (the FAq on powered sub hook up).

So yeah Rm75 are small sattilites but reading soemwhere 80Hz is optimal place for most speakers. And article says 120Hz..


Someone make this easier for me lol.

    The rule of thumb is: satelite speakers are 120 hz, bookshelves and bigger are 80 hz.
    BUT, this is YOUR system, so, play with it until you get the sound that YOU like.
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

    In that case, why are people obsessed with the whole 80hz thing being the best spot, just because THX thinks its good.
