I have a Marantz SR7005 running a 7.2 setup. My L/R mains are Klipsch RF7-II's,
RC-64 II Center Speaker, RS-62 II Surround Speaker's & CDT 5650-C rear's. I'm running two 12" subs.

I ran the Audyssey setup using all 8 reference points, and it set my speakers to the following.

L/R mains to large - Full Dynamic Range
Center - Small 60HZ
L/R surrounds - Small 60HZ
L/R rears - Small 90HZ
SUB - not sure, doesn't display. But I set the reciever to LFE 80Z

All Speakers were set to small originally, and after running Audyssey theses were the settings?

Is this correct?

In the medium SPL measurement, the center and l/r surrounds were probably helped along by boundary gain.

At high SPLs however they might strain trying to play down to 60-70hz. I would probably raise it to 80hz for the C and surrounds.

The mains are large, so toy around with the different bass mix modes. You may find setting them as small + 60hz or small +80hz or even small + 100hz (depending how loud you listen) to give results that sound better at higher SPLs and with music that digs deep, or perhaps the blend with subs in "Both" mode gives the best sounding (or measuring) results.

end of the day it's all about what works best in the room given your placement.
