Had my setup running a few years now and never been impressed with the bass, it's ok, but not mind blowing like some similar systems, decided to have a fiddle with it and start by asking here, it sounds like it's almost there, but lacking detail if this makes sense. I don't tend to have it booming out full whack, I prefer a clear detailed sound, but feel the Sub is getting lost in the background (only sometimes).
I have the following:
Denon AVRX2200W
Q Acoustics 3020 fronts
Q Acoustics 3090c center
Q Acoustics 3010 rears
Q Acoustics 7070si Sub
I have the crossovers set to 80hz on all speakers, on the sub itself the level is set around the 10pm position, and the crossover to "AV". Phase is 0.
Everythings sounds reasonable, but wondering if should increase the crossover in the amp on ALL speakers to 100hz or even 120hz? I can't help wonder if some detail is being lost at 80hz. My sub is from a different range from the rest of my speakers and apparently has a bit more power than the 3000 version had, so want to make sure it's being utilised correctly.
People say the main things affected by crossover are fronts and subs (not sure if this is right) but here are the specs for the setup regarding Freq: If everything looks good at my current 80hz with these speakers (and Audyssey threw the 80hz figure up as well) then I'll just accept that and resume as normal, but always best to check with someone who knows better.
