I still don't understand why your center channel's trim is so high and would be curious what was the level that your Subwoofer had in comparison. Fwiw, if you are hearing it as higher there is a chance that it may be, although some people prefer to do that when their center channel is smaller than their mains. Again, if it sounds good I wouldn't change anything. The sub was at (-10) or (-10.5). It all sounds fine, but as you and I know, those are some wierd numbers. I was hoping to get to somewhere, to where I understood the numbers and maybe it would be a little better. It just possible my hearing is not the happiest, because I am only with one sub. I had two sub 12's with that setup before and loved the bass. My main systems has even larger subs, I'm just a basshead, but at no time do I have it setup to where the bass is overpowering the rest of the system.

lol... I know that site all too well. I am on there helping others with different problems.

I'm trying to figure a design where I can build two 12's in the bedroom. I sitll have one plate not in use and I would re-use the one I have in the 10in

checked with meter, and they all are at 70db's I did bump up my sub to 78db's Left and right are at (-8.5) center channel is at (-11.5) My bad, that's 3db, not 3.5db, I must have been looking at my surr left(-8.0), surr right(8.5) rear surrounds(9.5) I am using Transformers:DOTM and everything seems to blend well.

Kinda on another subject with the center, I’m surprised that my onkyo set the db levels so far apart from the towers, and not only how far apart but in which direction it went. I am use to seeing either the center and towers about the same or some put the center channel louder then the rest. As many times as I re-ran audyessy, it always has put the center channel 3.5db lower then the towers. So, far, I' not having any center channel dialog low issue, if anything it seem to be 3.5db higher then the towers

Hey guys, I have been messing with it in between watching the Lions game. I could not get the center to give any other hz then the 150. I changed a few things and it would not budge. I raised the center and titled it down. I was thinking maybe my headboard was causing some issues, so I piled pillows. I took things out of the room. I brought my towers out some, not as much as I think was suggested but out a about 6in All the settings pretty much changed each time except for the center. I even made sure that both woofers were working and yes they are. I changed my tower down to 50Hz and I’m kinda going back and forth with bringing the center down a little bit. It’s not that serious, especially as much as I have put into it today. It’s just my bedroom setup, It’s mainly for putting in a movie/streaming netflix and falling asleep too. Thanks for everyone support in this matter.

The center channel is pointed directly at the listening Position, I have a high bed. I also have it on the very edge so that I wouldnt get any reflection. I forgot to mention, I am using a boom, and not a tri-pod These are are some wierd numbers from my AVR. I am really suprised by the audio gap. Come to think about it, I wonder if I should raise the center and tilted it down some.

This is an older pic, the quintet center is in the photo. I have replaced it with the C2. This photo also shows the personal built subwoofer and Denon 789

@Mauro Lowering the xover will send less content to the sub where the MultEQ filters have 8x more resolution. Also, MultEQ will not apply correction to the main speakers below the roll off point that it measured. So, I would not recommend lowering it. http://ask.audyssey.com/forums/84181/entries/76175.html and also, I agree, that comparing the Onkyo 805 to the Denon 789 is not a fair comparison. I wasn't calling myself comparing those two. I have always loved the Onkyo 805 with whatever speakers I use. I do also love the Denon 789, just not with the Klipsch. Denon really made some older HTiB speakers sound fantastic.

My concern with changing the HZ on the center channel is having an audio hole, since audyessy set it to 150hz. My understanding from audyessy is, it is ok to turn the Hz up, but do not turn them down. Going from the 150hz to 80hz would give a big audio hole, and I really don't want one in the center channel. I also wasn’t sure if changing the tower from full to anything would cause that same hole.I thought it interesting that the quintets are at 90 instead of 120 myself. I did 6 of the spots with running audyessy. The sub is a personal built box, with a 10in woofer, it’s a sealed box and I am using an amp plate that goes to the Klipsch sub12.Long story on the personal built. I had two Kilpsch sub12’s, and I loved those guys. I decided I wanted to experiment with blending ported with sealed subs. I gotten two amp plates for this project. I had built the 10in enclosure, and it turned out ok at low volumes. Well before I could complete my project or start it, someone broke into my apartment and stole my HT. I replaced most and then moved out.Bought a house put my Klipsch stuff in the bedroom and bought Monitor Audio and SVS subs for my main, I just recently upgraded my Onkyo 805 with the Onkyo 5008 in the main, and now want to use the 805 in the bedroom with the Klipsch. I like the Klipsch/Onkyo combo better then with the Denon. Love the denon, just not with Klipsch.

I'm not sure if this is a audyessy question or speaker question In my bedroom, I switch out my Denon 789 for an Onkyo 805 Speakers: F2's C2 Quintet III's for surrounds Sub is a box built, but is using an Klipsch Sub12 amp plate When I run audyessy, it keeps making my C2 150hz, while the towers are full with the surrounds at 90hz. In the AVR, it set the LFE to 80hz. It does turn on the Double Bass, which is crap. I just don't get why it setting the Hz like it is and having those audio holes in it.

I agree, that would be fine! I just want to add, the center channel from the quintet III's is not considered a C-1 Quintet center = 3.5in woofer C-1 = 4in woofer C-2 = 5.25in woofer C-3 = 6.5in woofer That is a interesting thought, I have a 5.1 in my bedroom and my Quintet III center is sitting in a drawer, I guess I could add that and make it a 6.1 or sell it.

The Emotiva UPA 7 is 125w and it's 7 channels and on sale for $629

Here is a fantastic deal, you can get the C3(which I have the F2's and a C3) for $179.88 which is cheaper then the C2 for $274.95. I'm not sure why the C3 is less then a C2. I know that Klipsch do not make the C3 anymore and that could be the reason for the lower price. http://www.vanns.com/shop/servlet/item/features/548208218/klipsch-c3?s_c=site_search
