dhayduk Posted August 29, 2001 Share Posted August 29, 2001 I'm still tweaking my new HT setup and did some playing around with the Large/Small settings. The only difference that I heard was less volume of lower frequency signals, but still some substantial output at 40Hz. Here's what I did (KLF30 upfront, with Denon 5800, which apparently has a fixed 80Hz cross-over): Speaker setup fronts:large (subwoofer on, but physically powered off). Run AVIA left front tones from 100Hz->20 Hz. I saw quite a bit of difference in SPL readings +/-15 dB across that range (room acoustics?). At 40-45 Hz, output was 85 dB. Speaker setup fronts:small (subwoofer on, but physically powered off). Run AVIA left front tones from 100Hz->20 Hz. At 40-45 Hz, output had only dropped to 75 dB. I guess I was expecting a more dramatic roll-off of the lower frequencies, no?? The reason for configuring the Denon w/sub on was to make the conditions as identical as possible - it wouldn't let you configure small fronts without a sub.
