I set mine at the lowest possible, 10 hz. Any higher than that and it rattles too much. I don't like subwoofers that have higher frequency rates than that.

Xian Xi said:What is "phase" btw? And what is it good for? The last 2 subs I had had this setting.
Smokehouse?

If i set my receiver crossover at 80 hz, then should i just turn the dial on my sub all the way up ???
ttooddddyy said:0 deg phase is for subs positioned with the same direction as the main fronts and center speaker, 180 deg is for a sub positioned at the rear facing the fronts and center, otherwise you will get a nulling effect - that sounds lousey, just like getting the phase wrong on the main front speakers in stereo mode.
[Left]------------------------------------[Right]
------------------[Center]----------------------
---------------[Seating Area]------------------
[LR]-----------------------------------------[RR]
[Sub, cone facing <----]

So it would be like:
Code:[Left]------------------------------------[Right] ------------------[Center]---------------------- ---------------[Seating Area]------------------ [LR]-----------------------------------------[RR] [Sub, cone facing <----]

And the room is square 10' x 10'

can you place sub-woofer in the middle? between left and right facing towards the seating area? Would it cause cancellation with both rear ones? I'm very curious.
Xian Xi said:I had that SPL meter and for my setup the sub facing the corner has the best SPL reading, although when the sub is facing me in the corner the SPL the reading was a hair higher but I couldn't hear that much bass.
