Just curious what all the RTi A7 owners currently have their speakers set to on their AVRs?? I am trying to get the best possible settings for these speakers paired with a csi a4 and psw111 sub, thanks.

    80hz is standard.
    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.

    When I run Audessey my receiver sets them to 40hz...isn't that a bit low?

    80hz is basically the universal generic setting. Those settings are going to vary from person to person, and from room to room.

    I usually go 80hz for fronts/center/surrounds, and 120hz on the sub.



    I've found that you usually have to go back and adjust the settings that Audyssey makes. They get the distances right usually, but they never seem to nail the XO's right IMO.
    The nirvana inducer-
    APC H10 Power Conditioner
    Marantz UD5005 universal player
    Parasound Halo P5 preamp
    Parasound HCA-1200II power amp
    PolkAudio LSi9's/PolkAudio SDA 2A's/PolkAudio Monitor 7A's
    Audioquest Speaker Cables and IC's

    If it sounds good, leave it. You could run those speakers on large anyways.
