Best way forward on this is to try an increase in xover, have a critical listen and then try again if need beHi,
got my apex just some weeks ago and very satisfied at the moment. (also got a new yamaha a2060) What do you use as the crossover frequency? At the moment i use 80hz for all of them. (4xa10, 1xa40).
Frequency on the sub is set to 120hz.
You guys have similar settings for the crossover?
I would set the xover to 100Hz, providing your sub is good for that, have a listen, and in my world listening for two elements, not isolating the sub so you can position it as the sub needs to be blended fully with the sats, and secondly listen to the voicing (in my experience the lower the xover the more muddled voicing becomes as you drop down the frequency register)
Final point, if you like your system loud then I believe conventional wisdom says set your xover higher........I have pretty much always set my speakers around 100Hz, even my M6s
But, as always, this is a very individual setting, and when you get to the point that you like then that's the one
