lieuwilla Posted March 1, 2002 Share Posted March 1, 2002 I have an SW-15 (front firing/rear passive). Main speakers are chorus. Center is RC3. Rear are KLF 20s. the sub has 3 controls, volume, loPass, and phase. My question is, what is the best setting for the loPass (and what is it for) and the phase.

soundog Posted March 1, 2002 Share Posted March 1, 2002 The lowpass is the point at which the upper frequencies are rolled off. If your receiver/preamp allows you to select a crossover point this can be set at the highest level as the receiver will do the work. If you can not set the crossover point via the receiver then experiment with settings. Since your speakers go down to 45 (chorus) and 34Hz try somewhere around 45 on the sub to start. The phase control is used to alter/reverse the phase if the sub is out of phase with the rest of your speakers. Try it in various setings ...in both instances the seting that sounds best to you is what's best. Also try different room placements as that can have a large effect also. BTW that is a nice sub that has THX certification, I beleive. It is musical but can also produce some powerful LFEs. ------------------ Soundog's HT Systems This message has been edited by soundog on 03-01-2002 at 02:44 PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
