I was wondering what the crossovers should be set for all the speakers? The Audyssey has the crossover settings as
Front: 80 Hz
Center: 40 Hz
Surround: 150 Hz
SurrBack: 60 Hz

The sub has a switch that's called 'Phase' that goes from 0 to 180 degrees. It also has Lowpass (Hz) dial that goes from 40-120. It also has a dial for gain from minimum to max.

If someone can help me, I'm trying to find out what are the best settings for the best sound.

Thank you for any help that can be given, I really appreciate it.

Answer
I would cross over the OWM 3 a little lower 120HZ or 100HZ if you can its really not recommeded that you lower the cross-over point but I would lower it to 100 Hz then rerun Audyssey to see if it will hold, also I would raise the center channel cross over to 60 hz or even 75 to 80 Hz to match the right and left fronts then rerun Audyssey to see if it will hold....Phase is going to be determined by personal perferance and your particular room set up but usually in phase with the other speakers is best but not always....180 may work better in some situations try both if you cannot tell the difference leave it at zero....leave your low pass filter off or at 120hz and use the AV receiver to set the subwoofer cross-over point lower your cross-over point should be 100hz or lower usually the lower the better down to about 75hz but your speakers need to be able to play at that level also other wise you get a gap....

Denon AVR-1912 av receiver,what speakers would go well with it?

pieter dw

i' looking at buying a home theatre system,still surfing the net for ideas.
i saw this av receiver and it looks real good and its in my price range,
now i'm looking for speakers that will go good with it.
i know Polk and Jbl are good brands.
any suggestions of good surround sound?

Answer
A lot depends on how large your room is how; many seating positions you have; how close people sit to the speakers; whether wall mounting is an option or not how lively the room is how loud you like to listen and personal preferences.....but just generally speaking take a look at Aperion speakers PSB; Energy; Boston Acoustics and klipsch in addition to JBL and Polk.....if you want to go higher end take a look at Revel especially the Concerta line also Bowers and Wilkins....
