Quote by annunaki :If your receiver is doing the bass management, which it would appear it is, set the crossover on the sub to it's highest setting. In this case that would be 200 hz.
My Yamaha AVR has bass management and the LFE jack already has a frequency cut off of 90 Hz. Most people don't know that the jack itself is already being filtered and a good sub woofer will have a, "filtered" frequency RCA jack and an, "unfiltered" RCA jack. If this person did what you suggested
that would mean that he would have his sub through the, "filtered" RCA because the, "filtered" RCA lets you control the frequency through the crossover on the sub. If the LFE is already filtering the frequency and you have your sub hooked up to the, "filtered" RCA of the sub the sound is being
filtered twice and will make the sub sound horrorable and muffled!!! Everyone
should check their owners manual to make sure their LFE isn't already filtered. If the LFE is, "filtered" they should hook the cable to the , "unfiltered"
RCA of the sub and the frequency will be controlled by the AVR.
I also corrected you on another post and didn't hear a reply, but I made some mistakes in that post that I just fixed. There is a lot of error in the info going around this website. It needs to be delt with. Thanks for listening, 80's
