Setting speakers to Large and also crossover to 60 hz and above with LFE + MAIN

[Sachb]

After Endless, Testing I have settled for:

1) Crossover: 80 hz (ALL)
Speakers: Small
LFE: LFE only

2)For music, I do the following:

MultiEQ XT: L/R Bypass
Dynamic EQ: On
-Reference Level Offset: 10 db or 15 db
Dynamic Volume: Off

For movies or TV shows: I do the following:

MultiEQ XT: Reference
Dynamic EQ: On
-Reference Level Offset: 10 db
Dynamic Volume: Light

Going for this settings gives me best possible sound for both movies and music. Although I could us Dynamic Volume for music too.

A short sample of my Music system, sorry for the shakiness:

I’m gonna put in a recommendation to move those mains off to the sides. At least a couple feet. You’ll get so much better imaging, and a much larger soundstage.

Also, curious(as I don’t use it) what you particularly like about dynamic volume? Neighbors?

I will soon buy a pair of stands for those. I like Dynamic volume because I usually i keep my volume below 50 on the Denon, so it kinda boosts the vocals and mids.

Ok. I can see how DV works for you. Btw, once you move your speakers out, I think you’ll find a whole new world of sound.

Reference level offset as suggested by Audyssey should be set to 0 for movies. which actually allows for more dynamics and bass. It’s suggested for music to set the reference level offset to 10db or 15db because music is mixed at a higher level then movies. Selecting a higher dB offset is actually subtracting not adding to the sound. Try it play some bass heavy music and cycle through 0 5 10 15 and see what happens.

The multeq App is worth the cost actually.
Now it's sounding 80% of what the Elacs can do.
Once I get the stands it should sound close to 90%.

Non fatigue and sweet sounding system.

The fun part is you get to start from scratch once you put them on stands.

True, but I will be buying the stands later, as I'll be shifting to a new apartment soon.
