    setting up a RSW 10-d

    Reply Contact
    I just got a RSW 10d this weekend and could use a little help setting it up.
    I have a Denon 1906, front speakers are KG 2.5, rears are KG .5 and the center is a SC1

    Should I set the speakers at "small" setting or have the fronts set to large?
    Should I set the sub setting on the receiver at LFE+main or just LFE?
    Around what crossover settings should I set the receiver to?
    Do I also need to set the crossover on the sub as well?
    And last, which input should I use on the sub? the left or right? one is LFE the other is main.

    I have read a few articles on this, but I am still lost
    TIA

    Hang in here, when some of the other guys see this post they will be able to help, if not, try posting down in the subwoofer department.
    Denon #2900 & #685 for preamp, QSC 1202, 2-Dean G'd Rf-7's and Conrad Johnson Sonograph 120, KG-4.2's, Blue Jeans Cables.

    Enjoy!...........Pat

    Set all the speakers to small including the fronts.

    Set the sub setting to LFE.  If I'm not mistaken, setting it to LFE+main will send the lowest bass signals both to your subwoofer and your front mains.  You want the sub to be handling all the bass in your case.

    Try setting the crossover to 80Hz or so and adjust up or down to what you like the best.

    Turn the sub's crossover as high as it can go (120Hz or whatever the highest point of it is) and let your receiver control the crossover setting.

    Connect the LFE input on the sub.

    Have fun and enjoy that sub!

    Try it Large and Small................Read your manual, and learn what the default settings are..............No one can write you the perfect answer, every set up is different, every room is different, we can give you a place to start, but where you end up depends on YOUR ears, not our words...........position is very important with Subs.....................They are pretty small speakers....small might be best......

    thanks, I understand every room, listening ear and so on is different. I just needed some "beginning" settings to get me at least along a correct path.
