Hi all,
I'm trying to select the optimal crossover frequency for my current 3.1 setup. My center channel is rated down to 88 Hz, while my L/R are rated down to 59 Hz. They are Klipsch RC-10 and RF-10, respectively.
My Onkyo TX-SR313 will only allow me to select a single crossover frequency, rather than on a per-speaker basis. An additional caveat here is that I'm temporarily using a cheap and under-powered Yamaha YST-SW010 subwoofer from an old home-theatre in a box. It's funny, but the low-ends from my Klipsch floor standers are producing much clearer bass than the subwoofer itself.
In anycase, I have a few options here:
Should I do the obvious and select 100 Hz? This hurts me, as I would like to get as much bass out of L/R as possible.
90 Hz also seems reasonable, but then the accuracy of the 88 Hz rating of the center channel comes to question.
80 Hz is nice, but will I be losing much from the center channel? How much dialogue below 90 Hz gets sent to the center anyhow?
Anyways, thanks for your input.
Cheers,
Tony
