gedwyn@mpinet.net Posted July 29, 2001 Share Posted July 29, 2001 I will have the following. Which speakers should I set to large and which should I set to small: RF-7's RC-7 RS-3's RCW-3 (rear center) I will also have two 12" subwoofers. 1 in front and one in back.

dougdrake2 Posted July 30, 2001 Share Posted July 30, 2001 Paul - Play with the settings to see what gives you the best results. I think your rears will definitely be small, probably also the center. The mains could go either way. I think HornEd (with 6 KLF-30's) just set them all to small (although it nearly killed him to do so) and he seems to be pleased with the sub interaction. I have just started to run my Chorus at small (despite the their strong bass) and they sound great. It frees them up to focus on the mids and highs and leave the bottom feeding to the sub. YMMV- Doug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HornEd Posted July 30, 2001 Share Posted July 30, 2001 "DougToo" certainly has that right! I have had as many as five subs going with six KLF 30's and, man, can that put you up to your ears in standing waves... ! !! !!! !!!! !!!!! ... and, of course, competing waves can cancel each other out. I carried that front and rear subwoofer out to a max before I found that putting your two subwoofers in a good bass corner and setting the crossovers to be below the "directional sound" threshold (approx. 80-90Hz with all speakers set to SMALL) and all your long low waves are more likely to stand up and be noticed... and your full range speakers will likely sound better than ever... if you have subs with the "OOMPF" to meet Dolby Reference Levels. Now I let Twin SVS Ultras cover the basses from one corner... while the KLF 30's (set to SMALL) seamlessly pick up all the directional sound my Yamaha RX-V3000 can muster in a classic 6.1 (no WDST) "audio engineer's" configuration. Now I Hz from below 20 to over 20k... if there is such a condition as "Smiling Ears"... I think I caught it! HornEd ------------------ "Where Legends Live!
