Heatmonger Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Hi Everybody! I have a questions about setting up a subwoofer with an existing system with no subwoofer. I am adding a Klipsch R-10SW subwoofer to a Klipsch Powergate (1063278) powering a pair of R-15M speakers. I've read into setting up a subwoofer, but I am not 100% sure where the crossover HZ should be set on this particular system. With the low end of the R-15M being around 62hz, I would think I should bring the crossover in around 70-80hz? Does LFE come into play with the powergate, or is this only with a digital audio signal? OR can the powergate generate the LFE from an analog signal as well? I am using this rig mainly for listening to music, mostly vinyl, but sometimes streaming digitally from my phone. Thanks for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatmonger Posted August 31, 2018 Author Share Posted August 31, 2018 I think I have it sounding pretty good set around 100 hz crossover, gain to 50% or so. I am not sure how much drop off there is with R-15M in the 100-70hz range but it seems to sound pretty full in this config. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
