[Onkyo Crossover Settings]

So I added a photo on the original post above, depicting the settings that seem to sound best to me. On the back of my R-112SW sub, I set it to LFE with 180° phase. I'm sure there will be those saying "you're doing it wrong" but I'm not claiming it to be right, just seems to sound better.

[RP-504c Crossover Setting]

Hi,

 

i have a question regarding the crossover frequency of my center speaker RP-504c.

 

in general i'm statisfied with my actual setting (Crossover 80Hz) but i tried 60Hz as well an in my mind the voices are more clearer than with 80Hz.

 

the RP-504c Center Speaker has a specification from 58-25kHz +/-3db

 

is it ok, i set the Crossover frequency to 60Hz? i read also that a buffer should be calculate for the crossover setting?!

if Center Speaker lowest frequency is 58Hz should Crossover Setting better set to 80Hz?

 

Audyssey says 40Hz by measure.....

 

and an optional questions is, if Center and Fronts should have the same Crossover frequency or could this different as well? e.g.: Center 80Hz, Fronts 60Hz

I also have the RP-504C and I've been running everything on 80Hz, been pretty confused on crossover settings.
Switched the center to 60Hz and I agree it sounds crisper and more cinematic.

[Onkyo Crossover Settings]

Hey all!

 

  After reading several articles in this forum, I'm still confused as to what my receivers crossover settings should be set to and If I should run my sub on LFE or not.

I've played around with everything on 80hz (THX) and while there is a lot of punch, the towers just are not as crisp as I remember a set of Klipsch being in my younger years. I enjoy my music of course, along with my movies.

 

My system is 5.1 and thinking of adding a couple more to make 7.1, but my receiver is capable of 9.2

Any insight would be greatly appreciated, so thank you in advance very very much.
