“set up recommendations for Klipsch R 10 Just purchased this subwoofer for my 5.1 setup. I have a denon receiver 1911 and two boston acoustics tower speakers and center channel speaker with two small bookshelves speakers. I am wondering what settings people are using for the gain, low pass setting and phase settings. I have my tower speakers set at 80Hz. The instructions are not that clear to me as to the best way to set this up other than trial and error.”

I think it should be a matter of preference Annonymous. The question you shld address is, do your towers to provide nice enough sounding bass reproduction for you? If so, I think 80Hz is a good balance. However, if you want to really enjoy the great sound of your new Klipsch sub (as I do) I would recommend setting a little higher. Others may disagree completely but, in the end it's "your" theater system and I think however it sounds best to YOU is ultimately what counts.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If your receiver did come with sound calibration equipment trial and error best bet. Tune to your ear.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Tower speakers go down lower than bookshelf speakers in frequency response, set the towers as large speakers, center and bookshelf speakers as small and crossover lower than 80 hertz since your towers can handle the lower frequencies just fine. The crossover on the sub should be turned to 150 since your receiver is doing the crossover work. The phase is usually done by the receiver too. If the receiver has setup mic then use that. If you have a small room then the gain should be half way or lower which mine is at. My receiver lowered the gain to -15db when using the setup mic which is the most the receiver can do so I turned down the gain more and listened to the bass when playing some music to balance it out by ear.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I would love to help you with this but it's a little hard to do on here and I don't give out my number. What I can recommend is playing with the settings tell you get the tons that you like. I have a large home theater with two of them in it and they are both cracked up and no problems. But then again I also did a ten hour break in on them at about 1/4 to 1/2 way up.
