Weird Audyssey calculation?

[Lombarski21]

So i just got my PSB Subsonic 6i, found the sweet spot in the room and now I just set up audyssey on my Onkyo tx-sr707. But it's putting my stratus gold towers to "small" when they clearly are not a small speaker. What gives? Before I got the subwoofer the stratus golds were always set to full band

Well, if you don't have a sub, it would be pretty bad if the AVR did not play them as full range speakers.

However, you really want the sub to pick up the bass which means you want them to be categorized as "small".

While it is not a bookshelf speaker and is pretty linear, it is not full range. Looks like it starts to roll off at 50Hz.

You can manually set them to full band, but then your sub would only be used for LFE and not for music.

Enjoy the new sub!!!

With useful output at 40 Hz if I'm squinting properlly ..
