avad, sorry missed your IM - i jump around the whole WWW a lot - so i guess it then became a PM.

dolby specs for LFE are a max of 120hz. still, like avaman says, i'd turn it off if it allows. shouldn't be much if any dif though.

My 333ES has bass cossover adjustments for the Front L/R speaks, the Center speak and the L/R Surrounds.

Nothing to do with the EQ settings (the EQ settings IMO are not very user friendly on this model!)

Also have an LFE high cut setting.

Speaking of EQ settings, does anyone know if the EQ settings go up to the Hz setting you select, or are you setting just the one particular setting.

(hope you know what I mean!!)

FYI, I think those crossover settings might only apply if you have the speaker set to "small".

STL,

Thanks for picking up on that! You're right, when speakers are set to Large --- No crossover settings!

avad, yea so maybe u should have your fronts set to large. w/ sony if u set fronts to small then it auto forces u to set rears to small.

if u have wired or do wire that boston sub into your rears though you'll want the rears as large. see what i mean about some of the receivers & the bass mgmt conflicts Biggrin.gif.

shouldn't make much dif for u anyway though because the upper section of the rp-5 starts getting cut-off at 90hz by the speaker itself. but if u run the fronts as large then u shouldn't at least get much cascading/conflict w/ both the receiver & speaker crossovers working at the same time.

Boa,

Had a busy day today! Moved the Boston sub to the rear of the room, had to buy a new a/v rack because the sat. receiver used to sit on top of the 10" sub!!

just got everything (except the 10" sub) back together again! Adjusted the "toe-in" on the RP-5s (as well as placement) and I'm loving the sound so far!!!!Biggrin.gif

I'm gonna' set all to large and go downstairs to wire that sub up next! (maybe not tonight) I'll let you know!

Cool.gif
