Any suggestions on how to setup my sub with the following system. Crossover settings on Receiver has choices of 80, 100, 120. The sub has a dial with those choices and more.


thanks

    Use 100 in the Sony with a sub cable. Set all speakers to small, the sub to on, and set the sub filter dial to the highest frequency setting and leave it there.

    I have a simliar quesiton. After reading through the forums throughly, I decided to bite the bullet and buy a SVS PC+ 20-39 subwoofer. I'm curious as to what are the best crossover settings and set-up for the sub, which arrives tomorrow.

    Set the subwoofer channel level to -5
    Set the PC+ filter switch to Disable
    Use L or R low level input
    Set power to Auto On on PC+
    Calibrate subwoofer level at the PC+ amp
