Re: Question about bass management and crossovers

192.91.146.34

If you set your speakers to "small" on the Marantz receiver, the frequencies below the receiver's crossover (100Hz) will be sent to the subwoofer. All frequencies above 100Hz will be sent to the speakers. This isn't a hard crossover, as the frequencies are actually rolled-off above and below 100Hz.

Setting the subwoofer's crossover to 70Hz only impacts the signal sent to the subwoofer and not what is sent to the speakers by the receiver. Yes, in this case, you will lose some of the signal between 70Hz and 100Hz, as the signal will roll off past 70Hz depending on the sub's crossover. Any particular reason you want to do this?
