    From what I hear, the PSW10 is a bit weak

    You shoud start with allowing the AVR to run its auto-cal program, think it uses Audessy, and then listen to it a few times to find the weak areas, if any. If you wish to manually set the cross-over freqs, start at 80Hz, and adjust from there.

    Somewhere in the menu setting of the receiver you'll find the option to set crossovers for the speakers. Set those to 80HZ which the standard these days. Also most likely the receiver will set your speakers to LARGE or Full Range, change that option to small and let the sub handle all the low bass frequencies. Hope this kind of helps.
    Front- RTI A7,(powered by ADCOM GFA 5500)
    Center- CSI5,
    Surrounds- RTI 6 and Rear Surrounds- TS 15.
    TV-Panasonic P55ST50
    SUB-SVS PB10-NSD and PSW505
    Receiver- Yamaha Aventage RX-A2000
