RobCurran Posted April 6, 2002 Share Posted April 6, 2002 At what low Hz does the Heresey IIs start to rolling off? I've got my speakers set to "small" Thanks ------------------ A/V AMP: Yamaha DSP-A1 TV: 29" Sony Trinitron DVD: Toshiba SD9200 CDP: Denon DCM-370 MAIN: Klipsch Heresey II CTR: Klipsch KSF-C5 REAR: Infinity SM-65 (crap) SUB: REL Strata III Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boa12 Posted April 6, 2002 Share Posted April 6, 2002 rob, w/ the yammy set small it has a 90hz high pass filter, so that's where it'll start but not sure of the slope it uses. probably 12db/octave at least at the start. to measure the real response in your room u could use a frequency sweep generator & a sound meter. i have one on the pre/pro & it stops at each frequency interval, which is best for measuring w/ meter. my avia disk has one but i think it only goes down at it's own pace. maybe another disk has a better one. video essentials? or maybe somebody has the curves for your heresy, but of course that wouldn't be in your room. & that'd be if they're runnin full range. ------------------ My Home Systems Page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm Posted April 6, 2002 Share Posted April 6, 2002 Response is rolling off pretty good, something like 3 to 5 dB, by the time you get down to 50 Hz. Setting them to small is appropriate. I run my Heresys set to small and crossed to the sub at 80 Hz. I would cross a little lower, but my receiver doesn't have that capability built in. With Heresy or Heresy II, you really need to send the lowest frequencies to a subwoofer or another speaker that can reproduce them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
