Awesome to hear. Glad I could help!

@@tHAvIlLaMaN 200hz crossover subwoofer and 8 inch mids + 1.25 inch silk dome tweeters.. Shall I apply this crossover? It really makes my mid highs stress free and let subwoofer handle all the load

Glad I could help!

Awesome to hear! Glad I could help

Thanks and welcome aboard!

Correct. It’s playing the test tone to see how capable your speakers are

Having a 120hz lowpass and crossover at 80hz shouldn’t be an issue at high volumes because any capable sub should be able to pull it off. Especially one with a 15” driver

You definitely have some good settings going on. The gain knob is definitely a preference thing (after its calibrated). I usually run my subs about 4dB hot, but that’s a personal preference thing

Audyssey is not fool-proof. Change your crossover to 80Hz as a starting point and make sure the speakers were set to "Small" -if they are set to "Large", change them to small. If your bookshelf speakers have low power handling and/or small woofers (or seem to be struggling), you may want to try a 90HZ crossover

When you watch movies do you leave your crossover at 80hz or do you Frequently change it because I have tower speakers as well but have always been confused about the crossover part. Because at the moment I have the front tower speakers set at large at 80hz is that good or do I need to change it. And my center and surround speakers are set at 80hz as well.

@@jasonschannel1315 lol this was back when I had an old crappy 8" sub with my towers. Now I just always have the crossover for all speakers at 90 hz.

@@pastaman6099 I came across your video off Google. And my crossover's I never messed with till I got to thinking something has to give because all the talking was going through my powered sub as well. And I just got to the point ok got to google to find out why. And gotcha on 90hz.

@@jasonschannel1315 I'm fine with giant monsters/dragons and such like Optimus Prime talking through my subs, just not people haha

@pastaman6099 Agree! Transformers sounds good that way just not all the random people talking on it

Your gain is basically the volume for the sub . That is normally between 11:00 to 12:00 o'clock . As far as your atmos with them being so small I would personally cross them to 120 hz

Great! There won’t be any change in the output of your speakers when they’re set to small. You’ll just be able to apply the crossover to them. Your towers should be set to about 60Hz. You could try 40Hz too, but that’s pushing it. Your center should be crossed at 80hz

tHa_vilLaMaN Under what circumstance would you want to set your receiver speaker setting to large if not when using tower speakers? I am a bit unsure with what this setting actually corresponds to?

Glad I could help!

Hey! The calibration should determine your db level for your speakers as well as the delay. Set your crossover to 80Hz movies. Music is a personal preference thing

So I don’t mess the speaker levels?

Did the calibration again and here are the results. Should I change anything? Front- 40hz Center- 40hz Surround- 60 hz Front Dolby- 90hz

No problem, glad it was of help!

Great to hear!

Use the gain in your receiver first, since it’s negative

No problem. Glad you liked!

Hey! That’s the the 504C in the video. I used it 60Hz, 80hz and full range, and it sounded good with everyone one of them. I suggest trying out those and see how you like it. Especially if you have it connected to an amp. If you don’t have an amp then stick to 60Hz or 80Hz.

80Hz for all is a good crossover for that system. Though you could also cross your fronts (only) at 60Hz and see how you like that

I’d suggest running the 280f at full range (set them to large) assuming you have good power because the lower they are crossed over the more power they’ll need. I’d also set the 450c to 60Hz

Thanks! Glad to hear it. I’m curious to know if you hear any differences with your new settings

tHa_vilLaMaN - Just watched a movie - got to say, base sounds more balanced. Seems to come from everywhere. Thanks again!

Perfect! I’m glad you could hear a difference

Good day to you too, sir. I couldn’t say which is better since I’ve never directly compared them, but I’ve heard very good things about Yamaha’s music reproduction

@@tHAvIlLaMaN Noted. Much appreciation

Anytime!

It’s coming. I have the review for the Klipsches bookshelves to publish first. So. Many. Videos. 😳

Welcome aboard! I’ve found 60Hz to be great. I mentioned it in the video

all at 60hz or 70hz and 80

No problem. Glad I could help. You can start at 40Hz and see how you like it. Just know that the lower the crossover is, the more power your speakers will need. So you might want an amp if you don’t have one already. With those speakers tho, I think the highest crossover you should have is 60Hz

for me klipsch is the best

the +/-3db made by the speaker manufacturer is to let you know when the speaker changes from a flat frequency response enough that it could be audible. The high and low numbers (e.g. 30-15,000) are very important because they usually mean that the speaker's response starts to drop off at those frequencies by design. In other words, if your speakers roll off at 60 HZ (60 Hz -3db), what VillaMan was saying is don't set your crossover below 60 because your speaker is naturally rolling off- choose a higher crossover point to make sure your speakers are flat (accurate) at your chosen crossover point.

Hey! Glad I could help. 80Hz would best for your speakers

Hey! I used 80hz for that speaker

@@tHAvIlLaMaN Thnaks!!!

Small with a crossover of 80Hz. If it’s set to large then the crossover won’t have an effect

Thanks! Can’t say anything about levels but 80hz should fit your system. That’s a pretty big room too, so having bigger subs would be ideal

You set the crossovers for your speakers in the receiver settings. The only change you need to make to your sub is to set the Lowpass to the max like I did in the video. Then you go in the receiver settings and set the subwoofer’s LPF to 120hz. That’s it

I’m a Yamaha man myself and Love them and have 2 Yamaha receivers an Rx-v377 and just upgraded to a Aventage 880 and keep both amps at 80hz all the way around n set to small for speakers and set crossover on Bic all the way it can go and volume half way n adjust volume thru YPAO n amp and try by ear honestly 👍🏽

@@dante5h729 Thanks

Yes... AND all of the frequencies that are below 120Hz (your crossover setting) that are sent to your Mains (Mains = any speaker set to "Large") will also be sent to the Sub(s) as well. Alternatively, if speakers are set to "Small", all frequencies below crossover points will be sent to subwoofers ONLY and will not be played through the "small speaker". Again, if speakers set to "Large", all frequencies below crossover points will be played with "said speaker" (down to it's rated freq response capability) AND will also be sent to subwoofers. Note: Setting a speaker to "small" does NOT mean you have little speakers...it is just a way to tell the receiver if you want that speaker to handle low freqs or not. When/Why would anyone want to do this? Rule of thumb: if you have awesome sub(s) then you want to subs to take most of the load (the lower end bass freqs), so set all speakers to "small" and let the sub do the work for the crossover freqs and below (this free's up the mids/lower woofers on your other speakers so they don't distort the other "higher" freqs trying come out of the same "cone") When setup like this, I also like to crank up my subs a little more than the rest of the other speakers (I like to FEEL the bass with movies...I can do this successfully and not distort the dialog and other sound effects because the subs are the only speaker handling the bass). If your subs are average (my opinion: average sub = any sub with a RMS less than 300W or a sub that can't handle freqs below 27Hz or so...again, just MY opinion) AND you have other speakers that are rated to handle freqs below your crossover setting, then set those speakers to "Large" so that they will play freqs below the crossover setting down to their rated low-end frequency response WHILE ADDITIONALLY those freqs will also be sent to the sub(s). With all speakers/subs set at the same volume, this will provide assistance to your sub and will give you more "oomph" in your overall setup. Hope this helps! Also, I welcome additional comments in case I misstated anything, or anyone has some other good advise from personal experience.

You make some great point which I didn’t cover. Thanks for that!

Exactly my thoughts. I was shocked when he said his mains were crossed at 60 or 40 on what appears to be a Denon AVR. Unless he's running a separate amp, wouldn't that be robbing some major wattage from an AVR that likely advertises misleading watts per channel to begin with? I don't have a separate amp (yet) so I let my subs cover the majority of the lows to get the most watts from the speakers and cleanest sound/ no clipping at high volume.

80Hz would be the recommend c/o

What kind of receiver do you have? I’d try setting the towers to large first. Speaker with no/low crossovers will require more power from your receiver to drive them.

@@tHAvIlLaMaN av reciever is Yamaha rx a3070...whit bi-amp connection....I whas thinking to setup: front to large, center to small 60-80hz.

Ok, that has more than enough power. You have no subwoofer so you could try setting them all to large and see how you like that. Having a crossover on your fronts will just limit your speakers since they don’t have an actual subwoofer to send the bass frequencies to
