hello,what is the general rule for running speakers large or small? i know that most receivers (including mine) have the crossover set at 80hZ, but i would like some more clarification.
for mini-monitors that only go down to 60hZ or so, it seems obvious to run them small, but what about small floorstanders? my main speakers are slim floorstanders with dual 6.5" woofers. they're rated to going down to 35hZ, but i think that it's more like 45 plus some help from the bass port. so, should these be run large or small? other people who own similar floorstanders, what do you run yours as? it seems like mine are "in between" settings, so what are the advantages/disadvantages for running small/large?
i use them about half and half for movies and music, and i don't ever play them ridiculously loud. also, i have a small center, small surrounds, and a 10" powered sub.
thanks for the help,
richard h
