[Question regarding proper settings]

I would also add, make sure you have good sub placement

Unfortunately due to the room layout I am limited to one area, but it seems to sound good.  Other than the stuff on the other side of the wall rattling a bit!

I would suggest crossing all speakers as small and at 80hz. This allows the subs to do its job and frees up power from the avr to deliver more clean power to your speakers. I would run the auto eq so you at least get good levels. You should not be having everything at zero. At least I wouldn't think. Most with Klipsch usually end up in a negative trim levels. 

Thanks for the advice. I am going to try that when I get home tonight.

How do you know the speaker distances are way off?

I was going off physical distance, but after reading you explanation as to why they were different makes sense.

[Question regarding proper settings]

Greetings.  Apologies in advance for my first post being a question.  I've spent most the day on the forum researching and have all but made myself dizzy trying to understand hz ranges and crossover frequencies which leads me to my question.  I have a completely all new setup replacing an outdated system.  I currently have the R26 floors, R25 center, R15 surrounds, and 1 R10 Sub hooked to an Onkyo TX-NR656 receiver.  Originally I ran the AccuEQ that came with it, but wasn't happy with the output.  I checked the settings and it had the crossovers all over the place and the speaker distances were way off so I went to manual mode.  According to receiver specs the available range is 40Hz-200Hz for all but the sub.  The sub has a range of 80Hz-120Hz.  All decibel levels are set at 0.  I'm really not a dumb person, but for the life of me I can't wrap my head around frequency ranges and crossovers, etc.  Most of the use will be for tv and movies as well as some occasional music, maybe 10% of the time.  Anyone willing to offer a newbie to AV some layman understanding as well as maybe some settings to try.  I do know that with the Onkyo on the setup screen says to set floors to "full range", but is that always best?  Anyhow, thanks in advance!
