Marantz SR7200 Crossover

[satish536]

Im in the process of setting up my system. I just got hold of a Marantz SR7200, the only concern is that it has fixed crossover setting{small and large}. I believe all the speakers have a set crossover at 100 hz.

My surrounds & center would be running as small.
My question is should i use my front RBH MC-6CT towers as large full range so that there is no bass localization or do you guys think i would be fine running them 100 hz and over ? what do you all recommend?

The HSU subwoofer should be able to output enough low bass that you will not need low bass output from your other speakers. Therefore you should set all speakers to small. The towers go full range when you switch the system from surround modes to stereo and if not for sure if you select called "pure direct" or something like it. If you speakers go down to at least 80 Hz or below I would put the crossover at 80 Hz. This is low enought to keep vocals out of the subwoofer yet use the HSU to best advantage.
